Publication: Monitor Volume: 1 Issue: 67
Russianand Ukrainian negotiators reported little progress August 3 intheir talks concerning the future of the Black Sea Fleet, Russianand Ukrainian media said. One indication of how difficult thediscussions may be is that the Ukrainian foreign ministry refusedto set any date for a visit to the Russian capital by UkrainianPremier Evhen Marchuk. He had been scheduled to go August 2 aspart of a regular set of consultations; now, the ministry saidhe will go only when there is something to sign.
