Call for help in identifying Russian language Fact-Finding
reports
Dear Colleagues,
currently I organise the attempts to publish an abbridged Russian
language version of the following English language book:
Hanne-Margret Birckenbach: Preventive Diplomacy through Fact-Finding.
How
international organisations review the conflict over citizenship in
Estonia and Latvia (Hamburg: Lit Verlag, 1997, ISBN 3-8258-2864-6).
On this background I am in search for possibly already existing official
or inofficial translations from English to Russian language of certain
fact-finding reports. I may kindly ask all subscribers to MINELRES-L to
let me know in case they are aware of the one or the other of the
reports listed below to exist also in a Russian language version and
maybe to give me as well a hint how to get hold of a copy of the
respective Russian text.
Thank you very much for any kind of help with regard to the issue
concerned and best regards
Christian Wellmann

version (official or inofficial translation) is searched for:
