Reykjavik, Iceland — Starting on 4 October, I was in Iceland at the invitation of the local branch of Amnesty International. Everything as usual: meetings, interviews… The first call came from the TV people. They reported that their interview with me would not go on the air at the appointed time, because an extraordinary address by the premier to the people was being expected. From my friends I already knew that former prime minister, currently chairman of the central bank of Iceland, David Oddsson declared in an interview to Bloomberg Television that negotiations with Russia about the granting to Iceland of a loan of 4 bln euros (5.4 bln USA dollars) are already begun. “We hope that they will be successful. Any help on the part of Russia will be very welcome”, – declared the head of the Icelandic CB. View of the center of the city of Reykjavik in the days of the crisis (photo by Grigory Pasko)
