RESOLUTION OF THE CHECHEN PROBLEM IS IMPOSSIBLE WITHOUT LAW AND TRUTH: NEGOTIATIONS WITHOUT PRECONDITIONS
Conscience of Europe is silent while today's towns and villages of Chechnya resemble a horrid surrealistic picture. Half of the nation has been scattered in Russia and Western Europe ; the number of Chechens killed in the last war exceeds 100,000; the right to life is not secured; cruel repressive raids on settlements take place on a regular basis; 70% of Chechen children are ill with tuberculosis (Moskovskiye Novosti, 13-08-2004, p. 14). Is it Russia 's fight against international terrorism?
In the settings of guerrilla war, mines fields, obstructions and mass check-points, 85% of the electorate “took part” in the presidential election held in August this year, with 74% “voting for” the elected president. While international observers evaluated the election in Belarus as unlawful, the election in Chechnya , held under the circumstances of war and repressions, was recognised by the European Council. This is confirmed by the fact that its Parliamentary Assembly permitted the “elected” Chechen President to speak in its session, whereas the Chechen parliamentarians of 1997 were not given the floor. If today's situation in Chechnya would be like that in Belarus , it could be called a paradise.
Now a parliament is going to be “elected” in Chechnya , where over 80,000 troops are dislocated in the territory of 17,000 km2. This reminds of Algeria , where 95% of the population voted for the country's remaining within France in the 60s.
The law is profaned in today's Chechnya . The Chechen nation is demonised on racial basis. The only way to stop hopeless and senseless actions and blood is negotiations with all the forces in order to achieve armistice and reconcilement - and not imitation of law, not violence. This is both your right and duty.
We believe that it would be lawful to assess and resolve the Chechen problem on the basis of Articles 1 and 50 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights of 16 December 1966 .
