Islam Belokiev, spokesman for the Chechen battalion named after Sheikh Mansur, believes that only the situation in Chechnya, in the North Caucasus, can draw part of the Russian troops onto itself.

" This is the Achilles heel of Russia. Most of all, those who want independence are those who felt the war on themselves.. These are Chechens, Dagestanis, Ingush. Today we need to work with them - this is a historical chance to detach and fight for independence. We need information support, support from the West, including Ukraine. We need to raise the archives, show people that they have always been oppressed,"

According to him, the lack of such work is a big mistake, since the peoples already mentioned do not trust the Russian Federation..

" Most do not believe what the Russian Federation says. Chechens, Dagestanis, Ingush for the most part do not believe. This is what we are working for, to show them the whole truth.. We still need to work with them,"

He is also convinced that recognition of Ichkeria is a vital issue for Ukraine..

" This is vital for the Ukrainians themselves.

No one in Russia is able to pull over part of the Russian troops, except for the North Caucasus, and in particular Chechnya, but for some reason they don’t recognize it,"

Recall that military expert and reserve colonel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Oleg Zhdanov suggested that the head of Chechnya, Ramzan Kadyrov, probably wants to secede from the Russian Federation.. If this happens, then Moscow will not withstand the third Chechen war, since there is no resource for this..
