THE LORD HAS OPENED HIS ARMOURY

Huge Secret Military Project in Urals
    Privately Worries U.S. Officials

American Foreign Policy Council, Washington, D.C. April 17, 1996

Inside Yamantau Mountain in the Urals, the Russian military is building a gigantic un-
derground project which the U.S. believes is a supersecret weapons facility or a
nuclear bomb-proof command-and-control center, the New York Times reports. "We

                                   can't say with confidence what the purpose is, and the Rus-
                                   sians are not very interested in having us go in there," a
                                   senior U.S. official is quoted as saying. "It is being built on
                                   a huge scale and involves a major investment of re-
                                   sources. The investments are being made at a time when
                                   the Russians are complaining
                                   they do not have the resources
                                   to do things pertaining to
                                   arms control.”

                                   The New York Times cites an-
other U.S. official with access to intelligence reports with
this assessment of the Yamantau project: "The complex is
as big as the Washington area inside the Beltway." Sovetskaya Rossiya report-
ed that the project includes "construction of a railroad, a modern highway, and towns
for tens of thousands of workers and their families."

"It is a possible command and control center," a senior administration figure says

                                                                 about Yamantau. "It is a possible

                                                                 project to maintain the capability

                                                                 to carry out wartime produc-

                                                                 weapons they do not want us

                                                                 to know about. If it is only com-

assume it's similar to the construction at Yamantau Mountain.    would help to know more."
