Independence is not a whim or an ambition. It is the necessary condition of our survival as an ethnic group.

It is not advantageous for Russia in its present state to fight against Chechnya. The army is a mess. It must be made combat ready. That will take time. Russia has a lot of economic, social and political problems much more important than Chechnya.

We deny and have always denied having the slightest link with al-Qaeda.

We will liberate our country from the occupying forces and put an end to relations between Russia and the Chechen State, no matter how difficult the task may be.

Western States keep playing with, and around, Russia.
