n`s press secretary Sergei Yastrzhembsky quoted him as telling leaders of the State Duma or lower chamber of parliament. "There will be no coups, changes in the constitution, no dissolution of the State Duma, no early elections." The government of Prime Minister Sergei Kiriyenko says it needs the Duma to pass a package of laws to boost revenues and halt a severe financial crisis. The package is also part of demands of international lenders. On Monday, the government clinched an agreement under which it will receive a total of $22.6 billion from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and other international lenders this year and in 1999, provided Russia keeps up economic reforms. The Duma has approved some of the government`s draft laws, while others have been rejected and some await consideration. It starts an extraordinary session on Wednesday to consider them and Yeltsin was clearly doing all he could to win its support
