CHECHENPRESS.
Official Information Section, 09/08/08
Following the recent events in the Caucasus and the beginning of theopen aggression by the Russian Federation against the sovereign Republicof Georgia the ChRI Ministry of Foreign Affairs makes the followingstatement:
The Chechen people who have been fighting for their freedom for severalcenturies against the Russian occupying forces consider Russia’saggression against Georgia a disgusting and misanthropic act aimed atescalating the military conflicts in the whole Caucasus.
There isn’t andthere cannot be any justification for Russia’s acts of aggressionbecause military conflicts are a source of infinite suffering for thecivilian population of the conflicting parties.
The Chechen people who in fact have been victims of Russia’s aggressivegeopolitical ambitions have in reality been sacrificed by theinternational community to the Kremlin Empire. Ichkeriya’s leadershiphave always been staunch supporters of the peaceful resolution of theRussian-Chechen military conflict and have repeatedly informed the mainpolitical actors in the region, as well as their partners, of Russia’splans to annex the territories of neighbouring countries.
The war crimeswhich Russia commits in the ChRI and which have been criminally ignored by the whole world only serve to stimulate the far-reaching goals of theKremlin. Leading countries of the world have left these warnings withoutheed hoping to satisfy Russia’s revengeful appetites with the Chechenblood. However, as the Russian forces’ open intervention in Georgia demonstrates Russia’s imperial aspirations are but growing and itsaggressiveness is gathering new and dangerous momentum.
This alarming situation has motivated the ChRI leadership to urge allpeace loving countries to exercise their principled approach and toprevent further escalation of the military conflict by reigning in theaggressor.
