This Central Intelligence Agency record is a program summary of the Mandarin-language broadcast from Moscow International Service at 0700 GMT on 21 February 1991. It gives short headlines for about 19 items, among them ethnic harmony in Georgia, planned coal miners' strikes and a coming visit by Gorbachev to Japan. One item says that policyholders of an insurance company in Chita can file claims if they are attacked by a UFO. The summary gives no further details about that report.
