Ironically, the Hutu quest for a homeland in Zaire conforms to the most radical solution yet proposed to solve the crisis: redrawing the borders so that Hutu and Tutsi can live apart in their own countries...
Russians are a cynical lot, though, and a pervasive air of distrust clouds the entire enterprise. The Communists have been feeding voters dark tales of conspiracy, and even Yeltsin's supporters believe he will not allow himself to lose.
