RFE/RI. INC. DAILY Man, , BROADCAST tR'',1-1 vr ANALYSES 993 ju ociL.0G442. 25 Li RADIO FREE EUROPE RADIO LIBERTY RADIO LIBERTY DAILY BROADCAST ANALYSIS [Asterisk (*) in the margin indicates coverage of lead story(ies) on today's Recommended List] 410 Russian Daily Broadcast Analysis for Friday, 2 July 1993 BAD Russian Staff The broadcast day commenced at 1000 hours. 10 -minute newscasts are aired every hour on the hour except during LIBERTY LIVE broadcasts, when they are incorporated into the show. 1000-1100 LIBERTY LIVE (Moderator, Makhlis) 1. Azerbaijan (Akhundova, Baku 2:30). Surat Husseinov is now the new leader of Azerbaijan. RL's correspondent in Baku discussed his rapid move to reorganize the government and advance his own political agenda, with finding a solution to the military conflict over Karabakh as the number -one issue on his list. 2. The Russian Government (Volkov, Moscow 2:30). The Russian parliament is scheduled to recess for summer vacation on July 15. However, a lot of work remains unfinished, including consideration of a new law on the media. The BD analyzed some of the reasons for the present impasse. 3. Russian Politics. A report filed from Moscow (Kulistikov, 2) said that Vice -President Rutskoy's current official trip to Voronezh and Novosibirsk was made to show that he is acting on his own behalf and does not represent the government in Moscow. 2 2 July 1993 4. A Review of the Russian Press was presented by RL's Moscow bureau (Trukhan, 2:30). 5. Student Meetings in St. Petersburg were reported (Rezunkov, 1:30) to have ended with a threat to strike unless their demands for university reforms are addressed. 6. Nuclear Energy. An international conference on nuclear energy was reported on by RL's Moscow correspondent (Rodin, 2). However, the many papers and reports presented at the conference did not change the general opinion concerning the serious hazards to life on this planet that the use of nuclear energy poses. 7. Russian Stock Market News was reported from RL's Moscow studio (Vishnevskaya, 2). 8. Western Stock Market News were presented by RL's Munich studio (Makris, 1). 9. Corruption in Romania (Krimerman, M 2:30). 10. An Update on Cambodia which noted the attempts made by the coalition government to bring stability to the war -torn nation was aired by RL's NY studio (Sirotin 1), which also interviewed a Cambodian spokesman in Washington. 11. British Prime Minister John Maior and Hong Kong Governor Chris Patten are scheduled to meet today and discuss the next round of talks with Beijing about the return of the British colony to China in 1997 (Abramkin, L 3). 12. International. RL's Washington correspondent (Mikhailov, 1:30) reported the US decision to lift the ban on the sale of weapons to Angola. 13. A Review of the International Press was presented by RL's Munich studio (Bensi, 2:30). 14. This Day in History was highlighted by the NY bureau (Vail, 1:30). 15. The Earth's Climate 250,000 Years Ago was described on the BD's science program (Muslin, NY 2). 16. Moscow's International Film Festival was reviewed (Bakshitskaya, Moscow 2:30). 3 2 July 1993 17. Vladivostok. A report by the Council Deputy of Primorski Krai (Lebedev, 2:30) discussed the growing concern that the reemergence of free enterprise in Russia's Far East may have a devastating effect on the already badly congested and overworked ports of Vladivostok and Nakhodka. 1110-1135 ECONOMICS (R) 1135-1200 JEWISH LIFE (R) 1200-1300 LIBERTY LIVE (Moderator, Makhlis) Five New Items: 1. Abkhazia. RL's Moscow correspondent (Kulistikov 2:30) reported that new fighting has erupted in Abkhazia. Georgian sources reported heavy artillery shelling of Sukhumi; however, the same sources say that the artillery barrage was a diversionary tactic and that at the same time a more important battle was taking place in the Chimcher region, where Abkhaz assault troops made significant territorial gains. 2. Hungarian Politician Imre Pozsgay's Meeting with Serbian Leaders was reported on from Budapest (Kun 2:30). This surprise move was explained as an attempt by Hungarian politiians to build bridges for future economic relations with the Serbs. 3. Germany. New laws restricting the flow of immigrants into Germany were passed (Bondaryova, Warsaw 2:30). 4. Great Britain Enacted Economic Sanctions Against Nigeria (Abramkin, L 3). 5. Russia and the US. RL's New York correspondent (Vail 3) reviewed a triumphant youth concert in the US of Russian and American musicians. 6. Sports. 1310-1335 COUNTERPOINT (R) 1335-1400 OVER THE BARRIERS (NY) (R) 1400-1500 LIBERTY LIVE (Moderator, Reshetilov) 4 2 July 1993 One Fresh Item: 1. Abkhazia. RL's Moscow correspondent (Popkhadze, 1:30) reported that the worsening situation in Abkhazia has caused Eduard Shevardnadze, who had just been granted emergency powers by the Georgian parliament, to cancel his normal schedule and fly to Sukhumi. Outside Sukhumi, Abkhaz regulars have gained the high ground and, according to recently received reports, have surrounded a contingent of troops from the Georgian Army. 1510-1535 PRESS REVIEW (R) 1535-1600 AFTER THE EMPIRE (R) LIBERTY LIVE 1600-1700 (Moderator, Reshetilov) One Fresh Item: 1. The Berlin Airlift. Last week Germany marked the 40th anniversary of the Berlin airlift that saved that city from starvation. Rut, remarked the program (Manheim, M 1), airlifts are not relics of the Cold War. Today, as before, they are the only hope for millions of innocent civilians in many hot spots throughout the world. The program went on to discuss the life-saving humanitarian aid provided by the airlift of food and medicine to Sarajevo one year ago this week. 1710-1735 ROUNDTABLE (Moderator, Roitman) The topic of discussion was the role of Christian democratic parties and groups in Russia's political and social life today. RL staffers Lev Roitman, Giovanni Bensi, Gleb Rahr, and Julia Voznesenskaya examined what Europe's Christian democratic parties have traditionally stood for, how they are developing today, what kind of links they have had with the Churches, and how all this compares with the situation in Russia. 1735-1800 AT THE NEWSSTAND (R) 1800-1900 LIBERTY LIVE (Moderator, Shuster) 1. Abkhazia. RL's Moscow correspondent (Popkhadze, Moscow 1:30) provided an update to the ongoing battle for Sukhumi between Georgian and Abkhaz forces. 5 2 July 1993 2. The Azerbaiiani-Armenian Conflict. A correspondent's report from Erevan (Asatryan, 2:30) said that Azerbaijan continues to use the Karabakh issue in its internal political struggles. At a news conference the Armenian press secretary accused Azerbaijan of initiating new provocations along the Armenian -Azerbaijani border. He added that during the past five years there have been five different governments in Azerbaijan and that each of them had tried to resolve the Karabakh problem by use of military force. 3. Nagorno-Karabakh. A Moscow political commentator (Khalilov, 2) provided an analysis of the conflict around Nagorno-Karabakh with special emphasis on Moscow's role in advancing its regional interests. 4. Bosnia -Herzegovina. It was learned today that a joint Serbo-Croatian force has captured two Muslim cities in central Bosnia. According to RL's analyst (Bensi, 2:30), this action only confirms the fear of many Bosnian Muslims that any division of Bosnia into three regions will in the end be a de facto division of territory between Serbia and Croatia. 5. Belarus. An attempt to replace the head of the Belarus Supreme Soviet ended in defeat for the opposition. RL reported (Portnikov, Moscow 2) that Stanislau Shushkevich, Chairman of the Belarus Supreme Soviet, today once again occupied his chair in the Presidium of the parliament. 6. Talikistan. RL's correspondent in Tajikistan (Khasanova, 2:30) said that battles accompanied by heavy casualties have become a daily fact of life along the Tajik-Afghan border. The correspondent provided an eyewitness account of a fierce firefight between Russian border guard units and Mujahidin irregulars. 7. Azerbailan. The top story of the day in local Azerbaijani newspapers was the start of talks between the officials of the new Azerbaijani government and officials of Western oil companies who had earlier signed an agreement with the previous Azerbaijani leadership for the development of three oil fields in the Caspian Sea. RL's correspondent in Baku (Akhundova, 1:30) reported that the new Azerbaijani leadership wants to renegotiate the contracts with the oil companies. 6 2 July 1993 8. The Middle East. The latest round of Arab-Israeli talks have just been completed in Washington. RL's Washington correspondent (Dubinsky, 3) said that unfortunately the talks were unproductive and broke up with both sides blaming each other for the impasse. 9. Terrorism. By all indications US security agencies are now beginning a serious campaign to combat the underground network of Islamic terrorists. RL reported that on Thursday the Justice Department issued a warrant for the arrest of Sheikh Abdel Rahman, who is considered the ring leader of the group of terrorists that set off a bomb in the World Trade Center in February. However, as reported by New York correspondent Yury Zhigalkin (NY, 2:30), the first attempts at arresting the sheikh turned into a fiasco when a double disguised as Sheikh Rahman was seized instead. 10. Yakutia. The Moscow bureau (Batyrshin, 2) gave a background report on the latest threat by the Yakutian government to cut off supplies of diamonds and gold to Moscow unless the Russian government provides Yakutia the promised goods and supplies needed by the local population to survive the coming harsh winter. 11. The Russian Economy.

  • Strategy and Geopolitics of Sea Power Throughout History

    Strategy and Geopolitics of Sea Power Throughout History

    Baltic Security & Defence Review Volume 11, Issue 2, 2009 Strategy and Geopolitics of Sea Power throughout History By Ilias Iliopoulos PhD, Professor at the Hellenic Staff College The great master of naval strategy and geopolitics Rear-Admiral Alfred Thayer Mahan famously stated: “Control of the sea by maritime commerce and naval supremacy means predominant influence in the world … (and) is the chief among the merely material elements in the power and prosperity of nations.”1 Some three centuries before Mahan, H. M.’s Servant Sir Walter Raleigh held that “he that commands the sea, commands the trade, and he that is lord of the trade of the world is lord of the wealth of the world.”2 Accordingly, it may be said that even the final collapse of the essentially un-maritime and land-bound Soviet empire at the end of the long 20th century was simply the latest illustration of the strategic advantages of sea power. Like most realist strategists Mahan believed that international politics was mainly a struggle over who gets what, when and how. The struggle could be about territory, resources, political influence, economic advantage or normative interests (values). The contestants were the leaders of traditional nation-states; military and naval forces were their chief instrument of policy. Obviously, sea power is about naval forces – and coastguards, marine or civil-maritime industries and, where relevant, the contribution of land and air forces. Still, it is more than that; it is about geography, geopolitics, geo- strategy, geo-economics and geo-culture; it is about the sea-based capacity of a state to determine or influence events, currents and developments both at sea and on land.
  • 13 Foreword to Richard Taruskin's Essays On

    13 Foreword to Richard Taruskin's Essays On

    13 FOREWORD TO RICHARD TARUSKIN’S ESSAYS ON MUSORGSKY Th e entry below initially appeared in 1993, as a Foreword to a book of ground-breaking essays on Modest Musorgsky by Richard Taruskin (Musorgsky: Eight Essays and an Epilogue [Princeton: Princeton University Press, 1993]). At the time Taruskin was the foremost authority on Russian music in the Western world; by now (2010) he has become foremost in several other areas as well. To his writings and generous mentorship I owe my education in this Russian composer. EXCERPTS FROM THE FOREWORD TO RICHARD TARUSKIN, MUSORGSKY: EIGHT ESSAYS AND AN EPILOGUE 1993 In 1839, the year of Musorgsky’s birth, the Marquis de Custine made a three-month journey through the Russian Empire. Th e travel account he published four years later, La Russie en 1839, became an international bestseller; to this day, fairly or no, it is read as a key to that country’s most grimly persistent cultural traits.1 Astolphe de Custine (1790–1857) was an aristocrat from a family ravaged by the French Revolution. Nevertheless, he came to view the Russian absolute autocracy (and the cunning, imitative, servile subjects it bred and fostered) as far more deceitful and potentially 1 See the reprint edition of the fi rst (anonymously translated) English version of 1843, Th e Marquis de Custine, Empire of the Czar: A Journey through Eternal Russia (New York: Anchor-Doubleday, 1989). Quotations in this essay occur on pp. 600, 109, and 206 respectively. George Kennan has called La Russie en 1839 “not a very good book about Russia in 1839” but “an excellent book, probably in fact the best of books, about the Russia of Joseph Stalin” (George F.

    Book Reviews 275 Soviet attempts to democratize the Olympics, is also discussed in chapter two, where Parks shows how Soviet sports leaders took the IOC to task for its “discriminatory attitude” (51) against women. The importance of winning the Olympic Games for Moscow was high on the agenda at an early stage, and actively pursued for the 1976 Games. The bureaucratic wrangling behind this first failed bid is covered well in Chapter 3, as is the successful 1980 bid. Of particular interest is the monumental effort invested in securing the 1980 Games, which included expected assurances of the necessary infrastructure but also a lot of behind- the-scenes diplomatic efforts between the Soviet Sports Committee, the International Olympic Committee (IOC), and the international federation representatives. This sets the scene for two engaging chapters that deal with the Moscow Olympiad. The Moscow Olympic Organizing Committee (Orgcom) was concerned with the huge challenges ahead of it, and as Parks lists these, its concern seemed more than justified. Yet, as this chapter convincingly shows, hosting the Games also represented a huge opportunity, and this was not just related to international status or prestige. The immense organizational effort necessitated a new approach that dispensed with much of the bureaucracy that could slow down decision-making within the Soviet system. Parks ably analyzes how the Orgcom tackled the myriad problems that confronted it. She acknowledges, however, that the hallmarks of the Brezhnev period, including increased spending on the military, drew funding away from sports and other sectors. This undermined the Soviet commitment to peace, which was dealt a severe blow after the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, a move that showed how much had changed in international relations since the Soviet Union initially won the Moscow Olympic bid.

    Russian, Jewish Or Human? Jewish Mystical Thought in the Poetry of Bulat Shalvovich Okudzhava

    RUSSIAN, JEWISH OR HUMAN? JEWISH MYSTICAL THOUGHT IN THE POETRY OF BULAT SHALVOVICH OKUDZHAVA Katarzyna anna KornacKa-Sareło1 (Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań) Keywords: Bulat Shalvovich Okudzhava, poetry, imagology, Jewish mysticism, Jewish philosophy of dialogue Słowa kluczowe: Bułat Okudżawa, poezja, imagologia, mistycyzm żydowski, żydowska filozofia dialogu Abstract: Katarzyna Anna Kornacka-Sareło, RUSSIAN, JEWISH OR HUMAN? JEWISH MYSTI- CAL THOUGHT IN THE POETRY OF BULAT SHALVOVICH OKUDZHAVA. “PORÓWNA- NIA” 2 (21), 2017, P. 197–214. ISSN 1733-165X. While looking at the literary output of Bulat Shal- vovich Okudzhava from the perspective of imagology, one can see that the image of “the Other” in the poems of the Russian bard was created, paradoxically, just by this “Other”, and it was not constructed by the images (imagines) intrinsically present in the consciousness of the ethnocentric “Self” or “The Same”. In other words, in the case of Okudzhava’s poetry, the image of “the Other” stands on the basis of some ideas of Jewish mystics and the ones of Jewish philosophers of dia- logue (Martin Buber, Franz Rosenzweig and Emmanuel Lévinas). Therefore, the aim of this article was to present the motifs stemming from Jewish mysticism in the poems-songs by Okudzhava which, as it seems, influenced theological, anthropological and ethical views of the bard. The distinctive feature of Okudzhava’s philosophical approach is perceiving every person, regardless of their ethnic or cultural origin, as a being responsible for themselves in the process of constitut- ing themselves in their humanity. The same person is also responsible for other people, for the world of nature, and even for an impersonal and non-anthropomorphic godhead who does not intervene in human affairs.
