Includes letter from Steve Keros (at Moscow embassy), discussing politics and culture in Russia (“Glasnost is bubbling along, breaking taboos that not too long ago would have been considered impregnable…. It’s amazing what the authorities are permitting…. Growing influence of the mafia.... But Glasnost instead may have already unleashed the ethnic, economic, and nationalist forces which could tear the country apart, and they say it is capitalism which contains the seeds of its own destruction”), 1989 August
