Golitsyn reports that Academician Gvishiani, Chairman of the State Committee on Science and Technology and a Vice-Chairman of the Council of Ministers, has been briefed at length (answer to question on lecture tour, November 1984). As Gvishiani, exceptionally for a senior State official, is himself a scientist by background, this may well be an atypical case.

The report in the Georgian press ('Za mir, protiv yadernoi ugrozy', Zarya Vostoka. 23 November 1983) informs the reader that 'even a relatively small nuclear exchange... will lead to catastrophic climatic consequences for the whole Earth, to the so-called nuclear winter', but does not explain how. The report by Izvestiya's correspondent in Tbilisi (T. Chanturiya , 'Vesomyi vklad sovetskoi nauki', Izvestiya, 23 November 1983) contains no information on nuclear winter whatsoever.
