Standing on the Fortanga River
Who is offended for the state
The leadership of the Chechen Republic seems to be moving from words to actions. After a whole series of unsuccessful negotiations on the fate of the disputed territory, Chechen units of the Russian Guard were sent to the south of the republic.
The area of their concentration is located exactly on the border of Chechnya and Ingushetia and very close to the border of Ossetia.
“But these are not independent states, but federal formations within Russia! - numerous Russian "lawyers" cried out in one voice. Under whose flag did they set out on the campaign? Under the flag of the Chechen Republic?
What can be the carve-up ?!
And in general - what kind of armed formations are they?
There is also the Charter of the Internal Service, the Military Regulations. It is they who regulate the movement of troops. And the movement of a military column without the identification marks of Russia is a direct violation of the regulations.
If these are exercises, then they should be included in the personnel training plan. If they are unplanned, they must be coordinated with Moscow. Particularly nervous was hooked on the fact that before that the right hand of Kadyrov - the speaker of the parliament of Chechnya Magomed Daudov had appointed a "shooter" to the representatives of the Council of Teips of Ingushetia.
This former militant, and now an authoritative deputy, proposed to solve the Sharia issue not just anywhere, but on the bank of the Fortanga River. And then the truth-tellers threw up their hands: "But what about the Constitutional Court?" And then they spent more than controversial historical parallel:
But what if tomorrow the head of the Voronezh region remembers that part of the land was cut off from the region in favor of the Lipetsk region? And why is Voronezh worse than Grozny? Return!
“With the filing of Ramzan Akhmatovich, a slide into the savagery of the Middle Ages will begin,” - from such a summary of jurists and truth-tellers it becomes simply bitter. - And in the future, the division of the entire country into specific principalities, which will be very easy to strangle one at a time. The dream of overseas "partners"!
Educational program for lawyers
The most interesting thing is that formally all these jurists are right. In fact, they behave like complete geopolitical laymen. At least in domestic politics. And they absolutely do not understand either the internal Russian realities of today, or the specifics of one of the most problematic regions of Russia - the North Caucasus.
That is why a short educational program is needed for lawyers-jurists and publicists-truth-tellers.
Politics, as you know, is the art of the possible. Note - not the art of the legal or illegal, but the possible. And in this case everything is possible - from contract killings to war. Or conducting local hostilities, including on their own territory. Worldwide practice, by the way.
Just do not think that the author, by no means a pacifist, is ready to justify both. No wonder the motto of our Foreign Intelligence Service is "Without the right to glory - for the glory of the state!" And they have no "right to fame" not only for reasons of secrecy. And also because sometimes you have to do dirty things.
For the good of their homeland, of course. And here talking about some kind of legality is at least stupid, and at the most dangerous. And it is fraught with the collapse of the country (which, by the way, our ancestors collected for centuries and with a lot of blood).
Caucasus before you
Now - with regards to the Caucasus itself. This region is extremely heterogeneous - both in terms of ethnic composition, and in the confession of different ethnic groups, and in the ideological canons of this or that ethnic group. There are regions with a complimentary attitude towards the Russian authorities and towards Russia in general.
The leaders of this "positive list" are Chechnya and Ossetia. Ossetia has traditionally been a reliable ally of Russia (although sometimes in relations between the local authorities and the Kremlin, it "failed"). During the protracted and exhausting Russian-Caucasian war, the Ossetians were the only people who did not adhere to the “ghazavat” that was blazing throughout the Caucasus.
Serving in the Russian army for the Ossetians has always been considered a military duty and an honorable duty. During both Chechen campaigns, the republic's leadership provided its border with the rebellious region in the region of Mozdok for the "jump base" of Russian troops. For which the same Ingush militants "thanked" them with a series of explosions in Vladikavkaz and a terrorist attack in Beslan.
After the invasion of Chechen militants into Dagestan, one of the leaders of the unrecognized republic, Akhmat Kadyrov, also demonstrated to the whole world “the art of the possible”, deliberately refusing to cooperate with the terrorists who flooded the country and sided with the federal troops. His son Ramzan followed the same path after the murder of his father.
No one knows (and will never know) what Akhmat Kadyrov and his son Ramzan told Putin in person. But the result is obvious. Grozny has been restored. And in the Caucasus, a whole army of infantrymen appeared, ready to defend the interests of Russia in various parts of the planet. And they proved it by deeds - both in the Donbass and in Syria.
Ingushetia and Dagestan are a completely different matter. There is no trace of any compliment to the central government. Thousands of Ingush and Dagestanis fought on the side of the militants during both Chechen campaigns. Its former leader Ruslan Aushev turned Ingushetia into a place of rest and rehabilitation for thousands of bandits from the neighboring region. It was the Ingush who made up the backbone of the gang that attacked schoolchildren in Beslan. This crime without a statute of limitations will never be forgotten in Ossetia.
In Dagestan, Wahhabism still blooms and smells lush. Not a week goes by without the security forces slamming another Wahhabi cell in the local forests. And the local scumbags, descending from the mountains to Russia, regularly demonstrate to the whole Russian society the bottom of their moral decline - they will attack the cadets, or they will kick the waitresses.
Sharia law and the axiom of geopolitics
In neighboring Ingushetia, any pro-Russian candidate meets with hostility and is eventually eaten by local clans. And from among themselves they are ready to delegate exclusively odious personalities such as the bandit patron Ruslan Aushev. But one after another, two Heroes of Russia were demolished - Zyazikov and Yevkurov.
There is not only (and not so much) the immaturity of society and the regional elite, but the open hostility of both of them towards Russia itself.
I would like to ask: what did you want after all this, gentlemen?
For Russia to turn its back on its loyal infantryman and give up disputed territories to a potentially hostile population?
The modern law of geopolitics, deduced by political scientist Alexander Dugin, reads: "Whoever dares to fight with Russia will pay for it with his territory." This payment has already been paid in full by Georgia, having lost Abkhazia and South Ossetia. Recently - Armenia, having parted with most of Karabakh.
Ingushetia also lost the Prigorodny District at one time. But it seems that neither the local elite, nor the local population, nor the local elders understood and learned nothing. And no conclusions were drawn. Therefore, the land in the area of the Fortanga River is not the last loss in the history of the modern "small but proud republic" of Ingushetia. They still have a lot to lose. Much to our regret.
