Boris Yeltsin, the first democratically elected leader in Russia, is dead. He died of a heart failure.
So if you have a business trip to Moscow very soon, you may want to avoid hotels near the Russian parliament building. Chances are, if there will be any tribute to Yeltsin by those who love him (let's just not talk about those who hate him!), it will be at the place where Yeltsin, in his finest hour, scrambled atop a tank.
