Ike,

An excerpt form this AM's WSJ:

Russian President Boris Yeltsin on
Thursday nominated Foreign Minister Yevgeny
Primakov to be prime minister in a bid to end a bitter
dispute with the parliament that has hindered efforts to
end the economic crisis.

Government officials said Mr. Yeltsin nominated Mr.
Primakov, 68 years old, after Viktor Chernomyrdin
asked the president not to nominate him as prime
minister for a third time.

"I cannot harm Russia. Russia has had enough upheavals
this century. This is my choice," said Mr. Chernomyrdin,
who had been acting prime minister.

Mr. Yeltsin made the decision to nominate Mr.
Primakov after meeting with him and Mr. Chernomyrdin
at the Kremlin.

This may calm the markets.

J.D.
