Chechen terrorism  

Definición

  • In the early twenty-first century, the Russian Federation witnessed a series of major terrorist attacks across its territory. While Vladimir Putin had made the eradication of terrorism in Russia a major political goal when he became president in 2000, it is clear that terrorist incidents in Russia have not only continued but have in fact widened from their initial loci of Chechnya, and from initial issues of secessionism to a much broader sense of instability and more general terrorist activity across the North Caucasus region and the rest of Russia.
