Russia - Pro Zyuganov Rally (1996)

(3 Apr 1996) T/I: 10:04:50


With opinion polls showing Boris Yeltsin rapidly catching up with communist leader Gennady Zyuganov in the Russian presidential election campaign, Zyuganov is trying to attract young voters. On Tuesday (2/4) he appeared at a youth rally in Moscow which featured pop singers. Those attending the rally ranged from smartly-dressed communist league members turning out to support their leader, to spike-haired punks there for the music.
