- <p> Helmut Kohl has a bone to pick with Boris Yeltsin. As the
- largest contributor of economic aid so far to the troubled
- republics, Germany is just a tad ticked off by U.S. intelligence
- reports that the old Soviet Union continues to briskly
- manufacture nuclear weapons. Among them are SS-18s, SS-25s and
- SS-24s traditionally aimed at Western Europe. How come? Maybe
- no one remembered to tell the factories to stop. Whatever the
- explanation, Chancellor Kohl intends to do something about it.
- While he will continue providing emergency rations to the
- republics this winter, Germany may halt financing and other
- long-term aid unless they knock it off.
