Yeltsin Foe Warns of Violent Week : Russia: Parliament chairman says officials may conspire to create disorder on anniversary of hard-line coup. He also rejects early elections.

Escalating his attacks on Russian President Boris N. Yeltsin, Parliament Chairman Ruslan I. Khasbulatov warned Saturday that Yeltsin’s supporters may attempt to provoke violence this week on the anniversary of the failed 1991 coup.

“These infamous August days are approaching,” Khasbulatov said, referring to the Aug. 19-21 attempt by Communist hard-liners to depose Soviet leader Mikhail S. Gorbachev. “ . . . And I have strong fears that these days this anniversary will be used to provoke disorders.”

In a meeting with foreign journalists, Khasbulatov also rejected Yeltsin’s call for early elections this fall. Yeltsin has said that only early elections can end the stalemate between the president and Parliament that has stymied attempts to reform the economy and adopt a post-Soviet constitution.

“There will be no elections, of course,” Khasbulatov said. “There is nothing to discuss.”

Later, Khasbulatov complained that Yeltsin does not take his phone calls. The former economics professor said he wished that the theorists drafting Russia’s program of free-market economic reform would consult him more often.

Khasbulatov also insisted that, contrary to Western news reports, Parliament does not oppose Yeltsin’s privatization program. Rather, lawmakers object to the president’s attempts to regulate the selloff of state property with a flurry of decrees, instead of hammering out compromise legislation.

“What is a decree? One bureaucrat signs a decree today and another bureaucrat signs another decree tomorrow,” he said. “ . . . But when Parliament passes a law after a thorough discussion, it is an entirely different matter.”

There is no cease-fire in sight in the nasty war of rhetoric between the president and the chairman. So far this year, Khasbulatov has accused Yeltsin of betraying the Russian people and of trying to establish a dictatorship. Last week, a Yeltsin spokesman called Khasbulatov a cockroach and a maniac.

On Saturday, Khasbulatov suggested that if violence breaks out this week, it will be inspired by government officials linked with “Mafia-style” gangs or armed “democratic” vigilantes. Asked to detail his charges of links between the government and organized crime, Khasbulatov declined.

So far, the Yeltsin camp has been silent on how it intends to commemorate the coup whose failure sealed the collapse of the Soviet Union. The Russian Communist Party, however, has announced plans to hold an all-night candlelight vigil Friday to protest “the destruction and robbery of the nation.”

“Two years ago a tragedy took place in our home,” reads the Communist Party leaflet distributed around Moscow. “A bunch of high-ranking traitors and deceivers”--including Gorbachev and Yeltsin--”destroyed our country and threw the people into the darkness of anarchy, enmity, deprivation and criminal violence.

“For traitors, thieves and scum, this is a holiday,” the leaflet says. “For honest people, it is a day of mourning and sorrow.”
