Esteemed Chechen people! It is our duty today to listen to you, to consult you and to put into action all that you entrust us with. We did not address you earlier and the reason for the delay was the fact that we had been trying to investigate and find out all the details of the coup d’etat planned against our country. Today we know all about this crime. Those who have been vying for power with us and with Aslan Maskhadov (let Allah bless his jikhad) for the last ten years , have just abandoned this power to us now, when they don’t need it any longer.

These days when the Chechen media display a clash of opinions, bewilderment and even perplexity, the ChRI Parliament considers it its duty and its direct obligation to remind the resistance fighters as well as all other Chechen citizens of the basic principles which underlie our national liberation struggle against the Russian colonial empire. The Chechen people started their struggle against the Russian colonial expansion in the Caucasus a long time ago. The struggle has been going on for over 400 years and represents one of the longest and bloodiest national liberation struggles in the history of mankind. At times this war got quieter or would become episodic in nature but it never stopped which is a testimony to the endurance and the freedom loving nature of our ... >> full

It would be much more difficult for us “outsiders” to support ChRI and the armed resistance without having our sympathy grounded on views about legitimacy. The legitimacy of ChRI statehood itself is not a subject of discussion. But recently some people have made attempts to change the governmental structure of ChRI, while they until now have unequivocally supported Majlis-ul-Shura (State Defense Committee) and Umarov as the legal president of a legitimate ChRI. A legitimate power in a country must be based upon the legislation, the constitution being most important. Every independent sovereign state has a constitution (well, the UK has a different system, based upon statue law and case law). In this confusing situation that has arisen through ... >> full
