The author considers in a Euclidean space \(\mathbb{C}^n\) with the Euclidean norm \(|\cdot|_{\mathbb{C}^n}\) the linear differential equation \[ \dot x(t)= A_0(t)x(t)+ A_1(t)x(t-h_1)+\cdots+ A_m(t)x(t-h_m),\;t\geq 0,\tag{1} \] where \(h_k:0<h_1<\cdots< h_m\) are constants, and \(A_k(t)\) are variable \(n\times n\) matrices with the properties \(|A_k(t)- A_k(s)|_{\mathbb{C}^n}\leq q_k|t-s|\), (\(q_k=\text{const.}\geq 0\); \(t, s\geq 0\); \(k-0,1,\dots,m\)), and \(\sup_{s\geq 0} \sum^m_{k=0}|A_k(s)|_{\mathbb{C}^n}<\infty\). Using the ``freezing'' method explicit stability conditions are derived.
