Wednesday, September 16, 1998 IN BRIEF: Army Out of Food Cash REUTERS MOSCOW -- Russia's Finance Ministry said Tuesday the Defense Ministry had already used most of its budget for buying food this year. "As of Sept. 15 of this year, the Defense Ministry has spent 4,642.2 million rubles ($480 million), or 81.5 percent of legally approved volumes to buy food," it said in a statement. Those funds included payments for wages used by the Defense Ministry to buy food and money from a special reserve fund. It was not clear when exactly the payments have been made. Interfax quoted a Defense Ministry official as criticizing acting Finance Minister Mikhail Zadornov for failing to meet presidential orders to pay the military overdue wages. The official said Zadornov's activities had fueled social unrest in the army.
