俄前總統鮑里斯·葉利欽于莫斯科時間23日15時因心臟病在莫斯科中央臨床醫院去世，享年76歲。葉利欽曾是世界政壇上的重量級人物，同時也極具爭議。他是蘇聯解體過程中最為關鍵的人物；他也是在與議會權力斗爭中，不惜武力攻打議會大廈的“鐵腕強人”；他同時也是難扭危局，最終交權普京提前辭職的“弱獅總統”。俄羅斯媒體對他的評價是：他打破了一個舊時代，但卻無法開創一個新時代。

Former Russian president Boris Yeltsin, who buried the Soviet Union then led Russia through its chaotic first years of independence, died yesterday aged 76, the Kremlin said.

"Today, at 15:45 (1145 GMT) Boris Nikolayevich Yeltsin died in the Central Clinical Hospital as a result of a deterioratingcardio-vascularproblem," said a Kremlin spokeswoman.

Mikhail Gorbachev, the last Soviet president, whom Yeltsin effectively forced from office, paid tribute to his achievements, and noted his shortcomings. "I express the very deepest condolences to the family of the deceased, on whose shoulders rest major events for the good of the country, and serious mistakes," Gorbachev said.

Yeltsin had for years been dogged by heart problems that required multipleheart bypass surgerywhile he was still in office. His deteriorating health ultimately forced him to anoint Vladimir Putin as his successor and step aside seven years ago.

Yeltsin ruled Russia from 1991 to the last day of 1999, when he handed over power to Putin. He was the first Russian leader to step down voluntarily.

Born into a poor peasant family in an industrial region in the Ural mountains, Yeltsin lived with his family in one room of a wooden hut.

He studied civil engineering and rose to become a successful construction manager before switching to work for the local Communist party.

Gorbachev, looking for thrusting managers to re-invigorate Soviet rule, summoned him to Moscow to become the capital's party chief. He was sacked for his maverick style but in 1989 he was elected to the new Soviet Congress of People's Deputies and in June 1991 he was elected president of Russia - still within the Soviet Union - in a landslide.

Two months later, he faced down tanks in the Moscow streets, and six months after that, he signed a treaty with the leaders of Ukraine and Belarus disintegrating the Soviet Union altogether. Yeltsin, triumphant, became president of a sovereign Russia.

World leaders responded quickly yesterday to Yeltsin's death, calling him a personal friend and praising him as a courageous fighter during the Soviet Union's dramatic change that marked the end of the Cold War.

The European Union and the NATO alliance hailed Yeltsin as a healer of the Cold War divide.
