True: when he took over as Russian leader the war in Chechnya was over within months: it had been raging since 1999 - also post war Chechnya has a thriving economy now.

@danielsteinbauer5688 I didn't mean it to sound like that: my point is that the oligarchs in Russia kept that war going on for as long as they could: when Putin threw them all out and took over the bloodshed had ended within months. What was done to Chechnya during Yeltsin's time was a scandal. I don't regard celebrating the end of bloodshed as macabre. Just like - I do have a side in the Ukraine war but the suffering on both sides sickens me and I'm hoping it will end soon. I hope I've clarified myself there.

@JimCOsd55 Thanks for clarifying that. I remember the first attack on Grozny and seeing footage of the Russians levelling the place. I remember years later seeing a documentary in which Alexander Lebed was explaining how he had brokered a ceasefire agreement when the oligarch Boris Berezovsky came running up to him ranting about how it was all about the pipeline and that there shouldn't have been any peace deal, that they should have been left to kill each other. I remember Lebed was killed in a helicopter crash shortly afterwards (Berezovsky was widely suspected as having had him done in) and, of course, after the oligarchs were thrown out of Russia Berezovsky met his own demise in London. Thanks for clarifying that point: I really didn't know much about Chechnya. Have a good day.

@JimCOsd55 In fairness this is what the banks all over the EU and America said during the crisis of 2008 - and they were doing just fine, but they wanted more.

Insane globalist "elite" who have an obsession with Russia and a coke addict for a national leader.
