News about his death, from the bbc: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/4353766.stm Google news search: http://news.google.com/news?q=Alexander+Yakovlev+&hl=en&lr=&sa=N&tab=nn&oi=newsr

Quote from New York Times Magazine article

on the reason for his demotion:

Most accounts of Yakovlev's exile to Canada say it was triggered by an article he wrote in 1972 for the weekly Literaturnaya Gazeta, warning of the danger of Russian nationalism. The article offended some prominent Russian writers, and to this day nationalists regard Yakovlev as their most powerful enemy.

Date of resignation

The article says that he resigned from the CPSU two days before the August coup. Is there a good source for this? The article on him in the Russian Wikipedia mentions July 29, 1991 as the date of his resignation from his post as senior presidential advisor, and this German TV news broadcast from July 28: [1] also mentions this resignation. The coup started on August 19, so his resignation apparently was more like three weeks than two days before that. Proofreader (talk) 12:49, 13 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
