November 18, 2002 issue

add to cart   close window

The article offers observations on the manner in which the Russian government ended a hostage crisis involving Chechen rebels demanding an end to the Chechnia war. Russia's President Vladimir Putin has rejected the negotiations with the hostage-takers and said that he would not be blackmailed by terrorists. Chechen President Aslan Maskhadov has denounced the crisis in Moscow and called for peace agreements. Leaders in Washington and Moscow must not connect the issue of Chechnya from the global battle against terrorism for a political solution to succeed.
