Hi Greg: Do you suppose they will give back the loan before asking for different conditions? Russia is a financial black hole. Never expect any money back. The 25 - 30 % they offered last week was a pretty generous offer, though I don't think it stands any longer. In fact, it is quite clear that the German government/banks never expected to get any of the loan money back when they gave the loans (this is all still part of the price the West German government agreed to pay for bankrupt East Germany, negotiated with Gorbachev). A friend told me yesterday that last year Dresdner Bank wrote off 90 % of a loan for Poland the day after it was issued! Cheers, Phil
