RETURN OF THE 'KRYASHCHENY.' Christian Tatars, known until 1917 as
"kryashcheny" or "the baptized ones," have appealed to Moscow to allow
them to identify themselves that way in the 2002 census, RFE/RL's
Tatar-Bashkir Service reported on 2 May. The Kryashcheny said that
Russian ethnographers support that request. ("RFE/RL Newsline," 4 May)
