POLISH SEJM CALLS FOR CE TO RESTRAIN RUSSIA IN CHECHNYA.

Publication: Monitor Volume: 2 Issue: 157

Poland’s lower house of parliament issued an appeal to world opinion and the Council of Europe on August 23 to "restrain the government of the Russian Federation from using force and continuing the war in Chechnya." The day before, a leading Polish daily had suggested that the "dirty war in the Caucasus" has been little more than a tool in a broader Kremlin power struggle. (UPI, August 22; Reuter, August 23)
