description | The purpose of this article is to present the genesis of the Chechen-Russian
conflict, including the genocide of Chechens. The analysis explains how the aggressive
actions of the Russian authorities were supposed to deal with “the strongest and
most dangerous nation” of the Caucasus, in order to subjugate this region. Russian
behaviour proves that their priority over the centuries was not an assimilation of
Chechens and the peaceful solution of the conflict, but rather an “imperial” dimension
of the strife, or to be exact, the ultimate conquest of the Caucasus, even if it would
mean the extermination of the Chechen nation. |
