[quote=Anonymous][quote]There is no path to independence for Chechnya, none whatsoever, so for them being "integrated" into Russia is a very, very good thing. I always thought it was quite hypocritical that Russia was blasted for the aggressive suppression of the Chechen revolt, as if territorial integrity should only apply to some countries but not others.[/quote]

I'm not even saying I disagree with you. Of course there is no path, Chechnya would be a failed state now as it was on its way to be in 1992. Beign integrated in Russia is not a very, very good thing either, I would say it is the definition of between a rock and a hard place. By the way, some say territorial integrity, others say self determination, and why does Russia get to decide that? Is it Ukraine's territorial integrity or Donetsk People's self-determination? What about Georgia's territorial integrity? I find that hypocritical.

Whatever Хаз ву ле вац; суна бе дац,  на вкус и цвет...

Not just my opinion, he was far more distinguished looking than the current inbred goat that runs the place now

And, like it or not, Dudayev had extremely impressive foresight 30 years ago, about Ukraine! There is a reason that the 1995 interview from Dudayev is going viral, he predicted exactly what is happening in Ukraine right now. [/quote]
