…Human rights experts have come to this opinion By Arslan Saidov On ‘Time of Freedom’ (program hosted by Arslan Saidov with the participation of Alexander Cherkasov from the ‘Memorial’ human rights center.) ARSLAN SAIDOV: The terrorist threat is to the advantage of Russia’s leaders. Western human rights experts, in Moscow right now acquainting themselves with the situation in the country, have come to this opinion. The expert commission is composed of prominent jurists, including the former head of the UN Human Rights Commission, Mary Robinson, and it works closely with Russian human rights advocates. We have here live on the air Alexander Cherkasov from the ‘Memorial’ human rights center. Alexander, do you agree with the opinion of your colleagues in the West, that the struggle against terrorism in Russia is being exploited for political goals? Comments (2) | Views: 7074 | E-mail |

By Nataliya Pulina, Moscow These days many Russians remember ‘Nord-Ost’ For now there is no information about a terrorist attack being prepared against Russia, but there is an unavoidable impression that one is imminent. It all began Friday afternoon when the evening editions of the electronic mass media reported an appeal by the federal operational headquarters of the National Anti-terrorism Committee (NAK), asking for all citizens to be alert. The next day the atmosphere in the large cities of the nation was frightening, while the populace relived the fears of ‘Nord-Ost’ and the apartment blasts on the Kashirsk highway.

By Marina Litvinovich With regard to presidential elections in 2008, I do not endorse any of the declared and ‘media-betrothed’ candidates. I do not endorse any of the ‘successors’. I do not support Kasyanov. Kasparov is not running for president, so there is no talk about this. Therefore, with regard to ‘Nord-Ost’ and Beslan, my position is simple: I must do everything so that any future president, whoever this may be, believes that the uninvestigated terrorist attacks, and the unpunished perpetrators, are HIS PROBLEM, and not problem of “departing President Putin.” Comments (1) | Views: 5657 | E-mail |
