Izvestia, February 1, 1996

We support initiative of Boris Nemtsov, governor of Nizhny Novgorod, his appeal to Russian president B.N. Yeltsin to stop immediately war in Chechnya. We consider it as the only way to stabilize political situation in the country. To one million of signatures collected under the appeal, we add our signatures too and appeal to our citizens to follow our example.
