To Associates of the Davis Center:
We have some sad news to report. The former Prime Minister of Russia
Yegor Gaidar died <http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/8416497.stm> on
Wednesday, December 16. He was a good man and played an important role
in the transition of Russia to a more democratic society.
Gaidar's death has also led Boris Nemtsov to postpone his visit to
Cambridge. As a result, Nemtsov will not be able to speak at the Davis
Center on Thursday, December 17, and there will be no lunch in his honor.
Sincerely,
Marshall Goldman
