Doku Umarov and Aslanbek Vadalov

The past week was filled with surprising and confusing changes in the leadership of the North Caucasus rebels. First, Doku Umarov’s plan to appoint a successor as leader of the North Caucasus rebels has ended up in his trivial resignation on health grounds. Still, Umarov also announced that he intended to continue to struggle to the end even without being the supreme leader of the rebels (www.kavkaz.tv, August 1). As EDM already reported, Umarov issued a decree on July 24 appointing Emir Aslanbek (aka Aslanbek Vadalov) as his heir. Emir Aslanbek, one of the most famous Chechen commanders, has led Chechnya’s Eastern Front for the past several years since the establishment of the Caucasus Emirate (www.kavkaz.tv, July 24).

U.S. Radio Liberty told its versions for latest statement by CE Emir Dokku Abu Usman

Publication time: 5 August 2010, 18:00

According to analytical department of the English-language Radio Liberty, the materials of which are almost never broadcast in the programs in the Russian-language service of this US government radio, there are three possibilities why the Emir Dokku Abu Usman revoked his statement about resignation from the post of head of the Caucasus Emirate.

1. He may indeed have been forced to step down by younger field commanders, who

a) are not ready to target the civilian population,

b) on the contrary, they are eager to do that but do not consider him an efficient military leader for such operations.

(Radio Liberty, evidently has in mind that new attacks did not follow in Russian heartland after the sabotage in Moscow metro although the Emir promised them for the future).

In fact, Umarov in his initial statement explained his decision to step down in terms of a need to hand over responsibility "to a younger ...

Akhmed Zakayev: Statement on the suspension of Doku Umarov

August 3rd, 2010

Chechen Republic of Itchkeria Cabinet of Ministers press office has released the following statement by Chairman Akhmed Zakaev with regards to the suspension of Acting ChRI President Doku Umarov from the post of ‘Emir of the Caucasus Emirate’.

"Information on leadership changes within the Caucasus Resistance Forces discussed in the media carries vast political importance. The significance of this event lies not in the removal of Doku Umarov from the command of Resistance Forces but that his suspension has released armed insurgent groups in the Northern Caucasus and ChRI Armed Forces from under the control and direct influence of Russian Special Forces.”

"During the past three years Doku Umarov’s provocative actions and extremist statements have caused a significant rift between the Armed Forces and the supporters of an independent ChRI state. Umarov’s actions have caused colossal damage to the Chechen state liberation ...

Kremlin's new strategy: kill Umarov, remove Kadyrov, appoint Gantamirov

Publication time: 30 July 2010, 19:11

Operative sources of the leadership of the Caucasus Emirate received information regarding new plans of the Kremlin, which is desperately trying to suppress resistance of the Mujahideen of the Caucasus before the Olympic Games in Sochi in 2014.

Sources say that masters in the Kremlin have come to an agreement that Putin's personal project "Kadyrov" exhausted its resources and capabilities. Moscow believes that the consolidation of Muslims in the Caucasus Emirate is the most dangerous factor today threatening the presence of Russia in the Caucasus.
