The Russians' hope seems to be pinned on luring away some of Intelsat's present members with promises of greater authority in Intersputnik's affairs. Whoever joins, the Russians promise, will have equal voting rights in Intersputnik's council, whatever the country's size or share.

But the constitution strips him of his two most important prerogatives-the power to hire and fire Premiers and to command the armed forces. In the future, Greece's King will be obliged to name as Premier whoever is chief of the leading party in Parliament. The Premier, in turn, will become a sort of super-President who will run the armed forces and just about everything else...
