According to the “Nature” magazine reported that Russia's President Yeltsin recently busy with the presidential campaign promised to pay the arrears of researchers wages as a response to the Russian scientists protests on the protracted crisis in research funding. At a recent technology award ceremony, Yeltsin said he is aware of the difficulties the scientific community faces and announced that 500 billion rubles ($ 1.05 million) have been set aside to pay for the arrears of wages and to provide for the maintenance of good labs. Yeltsin added that he already knows that Russia's scientific reputation has dropped. He said the government will take some urgent measures to improve the current situation, and scientists will soon feel that their plight will ease. He also promised: “Someday scientists from all over the world will be happy to work in Russia.”
