Çeçenistan: Siyasi ve Askerî Kısırdöngü

Çeçenler tek başlarına veya diğer Kafkas milletleriyle beraber 1750’den beri Rus işgali ve yönetimine karşı direnmektedir. Bu direniş 1850’ler ve 1990’larda tepe noktasına çıkmıştır. Bu makalenin iddiası, bu iki tepe noktasında Çeçenlerin ve Rusların çözüm getirmeyen aynı stratejileri ve yöntemleri uyguladıkları ve geçmişten hiçbir ders almadıklarıdır. Bu kısırdöngü iyi analiz edilirse, gelecekte soruna barışçı çözüm bulmak mümkün olacaktır.

Chechnya: Political and Military Vicious Circle

Chechens have fought against Russian occupation and administration since 1750 by themselves or with other Caucasian nations. This struggle has reached its peak once in 1850s and then again in 1990s. The main thesis of this article is that both Chechens and Russians had applied the same pointless strategy and methods and that they had not learned anything from history. If this vicious circle is examined thoroughly, a peaceful conflict resolution will be available.
