Revolt leader challenges Yeltsin CAROL J. WILLIAMS LOS ANGELES TIMES crowd of presidential contenders who have openly announced their candidacies, hinted broadly or begun stumping. Former Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev has strongly implied that he will be a candidate against Yeltsin and prominent democratic reform advocate Grigory Yavlinsky has likewise indicated he will run. But Yeltsin's greatest challenge OBITUARY could come from ultra-nationalist Vladimir Zhirinovsky, whose diplomatic high jinks and wild promises of overnight prosperity are dismissed as empty rhetoric by political observers but increasingly find resonance among the suffering masses."

Visitation Monday 7 to 9 p.m. and Tuesday 2 lo 5 and 7 to 9 p.m. 1 It I A 1 1 1 1 I I MOSCOW Former vice-president Alexander Rut-skoi, the decorated Afghan War veteran who led a deadly revolt against President Boris Yeltsin in 1993, yesterday launched another attempt at unseating his rival by declaring he will be a candidate in next year's presidential election.

At a convention of his nationalist Power political movement, supporters nominated the 47-year-old for the June 1996 balloting. Rutskoi, who spent five months at Lefortovo Prison in Moscow after Yeltsin sent tanks to crush the October 1993 armed uprising, used his moment in the political spotlight to accuse the incumbent of plotting to postpone elections with a referendum on extending the current presidential term for four more years. But because Yeltsin's popularity rating has fallen to as low as 6 per cent in the latest polls, a referendum to prolong his rule would be a risky undertaking and a move that would further alienate Western supporters. Diplomats and political observers said they doubted Rutskoi's allegation. In his convention speech, Rutskoi lashed out at Yeltsin's policies, claiming they had "caused direct damage to Russian statehood," and urged the president's ouster for the good of the country.

Rutskoi also vowed to see Russia reunited with Slavic brothers in Ukraine and Belarus, a call likely to stir up the Russian minorities in both newly independent countries as well as to irritate their leaders. Now shorn of the beard and military garb he sported after his release from prison, Rutskoi joins an expanding le 1 Jkl I Yeltsin and has embarked on an ac tive campaign to win hearts and minds in the impoverished Rutskoi Presidential candidate JOHN ALBERT CARPENTER provinces. Rutskoi claims to have 900,000 members registered with his party and has drawn impressive crowds at rallies around the country. His candidacy was immediately applauded by fellow revolt leader Ruslan I. Khasbulatov, who told the Interfax news agency that he will not be joining the race.

At least 140 people were killed in the bloody conclusion to the 1993 revolt led by Rutskoi and former parliament chairman Khasbulatov, who were freed from prison in February 1994 after the lower house of Parliament voted to grant them amnesty.

The federal demands follow the 1993 decision of Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni to allow the revival of the four kingdoms abolished in 1967 by Milton Obote, then president. Museveni ruled, however, that the kingdoms should have none of their former political or legislative powers.

The anonymous caller said: "Following the decision by the CA (Constituent Assembly) to deny us a federal state and the pronouncements by Museveni that he is not willing to offer any compromise position, we a're now launching full-scale war." The National Democratic Army, whose leadership remains unknown, has been operating around Luwero, 65 kilometres north of Kampala, since January. It has launched surprise attacks on rural police posts to steal weapons and announced a recruitment campaign, Museveni's government says a semi-autonomous Buganda could lead to political anarchy in the war-weary East African country. Last week Museveni ruled out talks with the rebels, saying they were treasonous criminals who must be arrested and tried. The recently installed kabaka (king) of Buganda. Ronald Mutebi, has maintained silence on the controversial issue of federalism.

KAMPALA, Uganda A Ugandan rebel group that wants to re-establish the kingdom of the country's largest ethnic group as a semi-autonomous entity threatened yesterday to launch a full-scale civil war. The threat was issued after unidentified gunmen abducted Health Minister James Makumbi on a lonely stretch of road near Kasangati, 15 kilometres north of Kampala, Friday night. Makumbi's whereabouts were unknown, but an anonymous caller told a Kampala newspaper his group had kidnapped him. Yesterday, a man who said he belonged to the National Democratic Army, which first announced itself in the central Luwero region two months ago, said by telephone that the rebels would step up attacks on government positions. He said Ihey were protesting against last week's rejection of proposals to give full federal status to Buganda, the largest of Uganda's centuries-old kingdoms.

The proposals, backed by the Buganda Lukiko (parliament), were rejected by the Constituent Assembly, which is now drawing up a new Ugandan constitution.
