GROZNY, Chechnya, April 9, 2004 (ENS) - Pro-Moscow Chechen leader Akhmad Kadyrov plans to found a new oil company that would give the devastated republic a greater share of its oil riches, while making him more financially and politically independent from his Russian backers.

Currently, money from sales of Chechen oil have gone to Russian giant Rosneft and its local subsidiary Grozneftegaz. According to Kadyrov, Chechnya sees few benefits.

The least we can do for the Chechen victims, the Russian subway victims and those who will be the future victims on both sides is to inform ourselves and others in the name of promoting earliest intelligent negotiations to replace the continuing cycle of deadly war of one type or another.

After the subway bombing, your archival peoples historian wrote:

Dissimulating Condemnation of Women Subway Suicide Bombers by Russia, US, China, UN
Amazingly, there is little public outcry that governments, whose citizens have been murdered, continue to meet urban terrorism with the same military solution that has brought about a repeating & unceasing calamity in the first place. Post-USSR Russia has failed to deal with Chechen ethnic drive for independence other than by the most clumsy and indiscriminate use of military fire power within a civilian population.

As if to emphasize UN officials inhumane subservience to military power, today's
NY Times, Richard Oppel reporting: United Nations Endorses Afghan President's Choice to Lead Election Commission

"...the United Nations also endorsed a plan that would weaken a separate election-fraud monitoring body but would give Western representatives veto power over its decisions ... senior United Nations official in Kabul, Staffan de Mistura recommended that Western countries go through with financing the parliamentary elections scheduled for September. Diplomats had said they might withhold money unless enough changes were made to ensure that the September ballot did not become a replay of the widespread fraud that pitched the country into crisis after the August presidential election.

However, few officials were willing to predict that the changes would prevent election fraud.. And the United Nations endorsement did not resolve complaints from some opposition leaders and Parliament members that the election monitor should be restored to the same independence it had last year, when it threw out one-third of Mr. Karzai's presidential ballots as fraudulent.
Mr. Karzai's most popular opponent last year, former Foreign Minister Abdullah Abdullah, warned in an interview that without more substantial reform "the election in September will be a setback for democracy" and could create "another political stalemate, if not a crisis."
The other moves endorsed by the United Nations involved changing the Electoral Complaints Commission, the main fraud-monitoring body. Previously, three of the panel's five members had been appointed by the United Nations endorsed on Saturday, two of five members of the complaints commission will be international officials selected by the United Nations, and at least one of them would have to ratify any decisions."

A UN backing the imperialist foreign policies of America and NATO, to the helpless dismay of billions, allows its officials to be tools of the brutally homicidal occupation of Afghanistan, arranging preposterously phony elections under a Quisling puppet government the UN helped to install.
