Why is Boris Yeltsin Kvetching? By MICHAEL R. ALIX NetJazz Correspondent April 12, 1999 Last week the Russian bear began to growl in earnest and it wasn't only ulcers and a poor rating at the polls that was giving him indigestion. Yeltsin, the presumed supporter of democracy and "openness" -- inherited in part from his precursor Gorbachev -- has been kvetching loudly against the West and NATO. At a Duma (lower house) meeting he has even warned of the possibility of world war. The news justifiably causes ripples of alarm among the nations of the Western alliance. Wasn't it Sarajevo in 1914 that lit the spark that ignited World War I?
