Having Lost Population’s Trust, Dagestan’s Government Finds It Hard to Make a Comeback

Gimry, Dagestan (Source: odnoselchane.ru)


On August 7, the acting head of Dagestan, Ramazan Abdulatipov, and other republican officials met a group of residents of the embattled Dagestani village of Gimry. The Dagestani government proposed a deal with the villagers’ leaders that should end the settlement’s suspended status. The authorities bluntly offered a combination of "carrots and sticks” to the residents of Gimry, which has been the scene of lengthy special operations several times in the past years. In April, during the latest special operation there, the security services even resettled the entire population of the village, several thousand people, in a shantytown nearby, under the pretext of fighting the radicals in the village. The official website of the Dagestani government conveniently shifted responsibility for the hardship of Gimry’s civilian population onto ...

Window on Eurasia: Daghestan a Failed State and Must Be ‘Built Anew,’ Abdulatipov Says


Paul Goble

            Staunton, April 24 – The government of Daghestan "has been completely destroyed and must be build anew with the participation of various political forces” including the formation of new political parties, according to Ramaan Abdulatipov, who is the current acting head of that North Caucasus republic.

            Confessing that the situation is much worse than he had expected, Abdulatipov told a TV call-in show that even when he was in Moscow, he kept track of what was going on in the republic but "did not think that the crisis was so deep” and that "not a single sphere is functioning normally” (vestikavkaza.ru/news/R-Abdulatipov-Sistema-upravleniya-v-Dagestane-polnostyu-razrushena-nuzhno-ee-vystraivat-zanovo.html).

            As a result, he said, "much of what could work for the development of the republic is not working.”  Corruption is rampant, and the state agencies that are supposed to control basic public services have ...

Dagestan Is Enmeshed in Another Round of Ethnic Confrontation

Following the Kumyks, who held a rally in the city of Pyatigorsk on February 10 (http://www.chernovik.net/content/lenta-novostey/v-pyatigorske-proshyol-sezd-kumykskogo-naroda), Chechen residents of Dagestan have also come out into the streets to protest. The organizers of a rally held on February 23 to mark the 69th anniversary of the Chechen nation’s deportation to Kazakhstan and Central Asia decided to turn it into a permanent protest (http://kavkazcenter.com/russ/content/2013/02/25/96434.shtml). Dagestan’s Chechens are demanding that the Dagestani government resettle them in the towns where they lived before the deportation. Chechens who have returned from exile have not been able to return to their own settlements for more than a half-century. After the Chechens were deported in February 1944, Dagestani Laks and Avars were resettled in their homes. The issue of the return of Chechen land and property has ...

Officially Sanctioned Kidnappings Alienate the Dagestani Public

Rally against kidnappings in Dagestan at the Prosecutor's Office (Source Caucasian Knot)

The news from Dagestan in September was dominated by reports of militant actions, special operations and terror attacks, but the most worrying development has been the occurrence of multiple kidnappings by both security forces and militants. Indeed, kidnappings are the only events that lead people to take to the streets and demand answers from the government (www.kavkaz-uzel.ru/articles/207167/). Kidnappings are not new to Dagestan: while initially this phenomenon was relatively rare, it started to become routine in 2007, when the security situation in Dagestan became especially precarious (www.memo.ru/s/87.html). Since then, activists from the human rights organization "Memorial” have noted that kidnappings in Dagestan have acquired a regular pattern. Kidnappings should not be confused with the custom of snatching brides, which is a ...

Violence in Dagestan Accelerated in 2012

Dagestani Sheikh Said Chirkeisky

At the start of 2013 it makes sense to summarize the events of the previous year. The official figures from 2012 suggest that the Republic of Dagestan today is the primary base of the armed resistance in the North Caucasus: 262 terrorism-related crimes were committed in Dagestan during the first eleven months of 2012, 42 more than in the entire year of 2011 (http://news.mail.ru/inregions/caucasus/5/society/11483342/). At the same time, the rest of the North Caucasus region—Chechnya, Ingushetia, Kabardino-Balkaria, Karachaevo-Cherkessia and Stavropol—experienced only 176 terrorism-related crimes during the first eleven months of 2012. According to an analysis of open sources, 232 insurgents were killed in Dagestan out of a total of 379 insurgents killed in the North Caucasus in 2012. In comparison, 171 militants were killed in Dagestan in 2011. About 200 ...
