	New Statesman - The NS Profile - Yevgeny Primakov
		In office Primakov began by slamming the scapegoats and making the noises required to persuade parliament and populace alike that their man was at last at the helm.
		Primakov's strategy, at the outset expressed in tones bloodcurdling for governments worldwide, has been in reality the pursuit of domestic policies remarkably similar to those of his immediate predecessors.
		There is also the glaring problem that Primakov, hewn in the state's innermost heartlands of the foreign policy and security establishments, threatens the presidency's traditional spheres of influence; in Yeltsinland, prime ministers are supposed, one former ambassador says, "to oversee large tractor factories".

	Primakov Interview - JRL 11-11-03
		Primakov: I think it would now be correct to conduct some round- table discussion and naturally, this should be done on a legal basis and it would be good to talk with the large entrepreneurs working, say, in the petroleum sector not in the spirit of "you give us back everything and on and on".

		He reminded Primakov that, whatever his view of the U.N. resolution, it had already been adopted, implying that the Russian's rhetoric was empty.
