I must say that the Russian president did not err in making this, as it turned out, a true choice. And with regard to Ramzan-Hadji, I would add that it is belongs not just Chechnya, but also throughout the Caucasus, and then, perhaps, the whole of Russia. I am confident that we will fall honor to see in the near future, many of the new achievements and feats, both in the interests of the peoples of the Caucasus, and in the name of Russian people. JH: – That you said something about 'the interests of people of the Caucasus'. Very often we say: 'The interests of Russia', 'Interests of Dagestan' or 'interests of the Chechen people. " In Dagestan and Ingushetia, as far as I know, no link their interests with the figure of Ramzan Kadyrov. He is too elevated and too close to the Kremlin. Here, apart from an instinct of power, works and popular 'instinct'.

Strong neighbor-favorite center – may encroach on their interests. We also know, if someone wants to, can inflate the territorial issue, even fatal to the kindred peoples. And this question, in respect of Ingushetia, occasionally exaggerated. In Ingushetia, as far as I know, decidedly does not want unification with Chechnya. 'Fraternal peoples live better in their own apartments' – this is the main message and the elite and the people of Ingushetia. This is especially true for Dagestan. So what's the question: 'What, indeed, are these most 'interests' of neighboring peoples of Chechnya and how they relate to attitudes and activities of the Chechen President? " – It is still relevant.

Four high school students sat Tirdznisi Gori district, adjacent to South Ossetia, were arrested and transported to Tskhinvali. The reason, as explained there was a violation of the administrative boundary. After the first attempts by the Georgian side to begin negotiations for the release she was told that had previously been arrested several citizens of South Ossetia, which, according to South Ossetian authorities are in a remand Tbilisi. Georgian law enforcement agencies have denied the allegations. Government circles, and sharply criticized already for lack of control on the adjacent territories of South Ossetia, not a little agitated.

In the village Tirdznisi left MPs from the faction of the Christian Democrats and questioned locals about the circumstances of the accident. Then, the initiative brought the anti-crisis committee chairman of the Georgian Parliament Giorgi Tortladze offered Tskhinvali top of the following: to clarify the circumstances and the final decision to sharpen him in jail instead of teenagers, the oldest of whom, I must say, no more than 16 years. But Such measures, even in Tbilisi were not taken seriously, not to mention Tskhinvali administration. After that Georgian officials made several troubling statements and, accordingly, inform the international organization. The incident became a topic of discussion at the Geneva process to resolve. At the end of Thursday next, eighth, round heads of plenipotentiary representative of South Ossetia on post-conflict settlement Boris Chochiev said that South Ossetia would suspend its participation in mechanisms for preventing and responding to incidents, if not received information about stolen Georgian Ossetians.

In the context of energy interests of the European Union considered the recent improvement of relations between Turkey and Armenia. Rapprochement between the two countries, according to commentators, could serve as a positive example for Armenia and Azerbaijan an impetus to the resolution of the Nagorno-Karabakh. The settlement of the Karabakh conflict is again seen as an important element in creating a network of reliable transit routes for the transfer of Central Asian gas to Europe, bypassing Russia. In the German media are still experiencing increased interest in the political situation in Georgia, which is reflected in numerous comments to the topic. Widely discussed and the reaction of the Russian Federation to NATO exercises in Georgia. Certain materials on the situation in Abkhazia and South Ossetia are confined to specific activities: the fifth round of Geneva discussions on security in the Caucasus and assigned to the May 31 parliamentary elections in South Ossetia, the results which the West did not recognize. The key themes of media appearances in France over the situation in the Caucasus began in May, NATO military exercises in Georgia, the Georgian military rebellion the military base and launching of the "Eastern Partnership" involving the strengthening of the EU including the South Caucasus countries. Covering the NATO military exercises in Georgia, many media give views of Moscow, which calls these exercises provocation.

Some publications believe that this is indeed the case. We give an expert opinion that Russia considers the dangerous combination of a NATO-Georgia in any form. Insurgency war in Georgia has become the number one topic in the French media materials on the Caucasus subject in May. First edition emphasized the fact that the mutiny was informed the Georgian authorities, then began to write about the rebellion as an event whose reality is not questioned. Distributed by the thesis that the rebellion advantageous for Russia. On the one hand, argues that the West, many believe Saakashvili insane, on the other side of Le Figaro consistently proves why the thesis about the beneficial mental illness Saakashvili Moscow.

The Kremlin says the president of Georgia is a psychiatric patient, and even said that Georgia should be sent no soldiers, and nurses. Program "Eastern Partnership", launched at the EU summit in Prague French media say the majority of late in part because that Georgia is still recovering from armed conflict with Russia. In May, the Caucasus topic attracts the attention of the Spanish press in connection with the mutiny in Mukhrovani teachings of the Georgia-NATO, signing the agreement on the protection of Russia borders of Abkhazia and South Ossetia. Continues in the media analysis of the situation in the Chechen Republic in connection with the abolition of the CTO regime. The most popular Information occasion of the month was the holding of NATO exercises in Georgia, which the Chinese print media paid attention. Experts do not conceal their concern over the growing contradictions between Moscow and Tbilisi and make the following conclusion: short-sighted policy of the West, on the one hand, has a destructive impact on the emerging progress in Russian-US relations, on the other – indicates that NATO is playing Georgia map to weaken Moscow's influence in the Caucasus and secure control of Western countries for energy resources in the region. Other press materials in varying degrees, analyze general trends in Russian-Georgian relations, as well as focusing on the speeches of the opposition in Georgia, suggesting that official Tbilisi will follow the recommendations of the West and try to compromise only to In order to dull the vigilance of political opponents of Saakashvili.
