Gorbachev backed off the tough line Tues- day by declaring he does not yet see a need to impose presidential rule. Lithuanian President Vytautas Landsber- gis, respondingto the severe tone of Mon- day's declaration by the Kremlin, sent a telegram to Gorbachev saying he feared that "ultra-rightist imperial forces are compelling you to take a wrong step: to continue the wrongs of the 1940s in the Baltics. " "In the name of peace, justice and con- cord on earth, do not do this," he wrote. He was referring to the Soviet occupa- tion and forced annexation of the three Baltic republics - Lithuania, Estonia, and Latvia - in 1940. Since March 11, when Lithuania declared its independence restored, the J(remlin has repeatedly alternated between threatening and conciliatory tones. On several occasions, threatening mili- tary movements were followed by kinder words.
