Russia calls it separatism and charges them 2 ore more years in prisons
Russians (those who live outside of Chechnya don't mind
They wanted an Islamic terrorist state. ISIS for USA. It was dubbed a "breakaway" republic replete with "freedom fighters" by the West. ISIS freedom fighters are aan equal.
The Russian constitution says it would be illegal for any part of Russia to "breakaway" as is supposed Chechnya wanted.
Texas has a "Republic of Texas" militia. they are maybe 15 or 500 right wing, gun nut, radicals. They are small caliber compared to people who cut fingers off people and attacked pregnent women and doctors within days of child delivery. Chechnya had a like number of wing-nuts. 500? 5000? I don't know. Putin deactivated a few of them, as all terrorists must be.
Who told you they want independence? Terrorists residing nowadays in Dagestan (have you heard about this region of Russia?) and some other republics of North Caucasus want Islamic state from Caucasus to Ural mountains. To explain it in simple words - take European part of Russia and cut lower half of it. It is area, inhabited by dozens ethnic groups and dozens millions of people. Most part of these people have NOTHING to do with Islam (and NEVER in human history had). Guess what should happen with us in case of emergence of the Islamic caliphate?
For example, here:

'For example, in the Chechnyan war, surely there are female Russian captives,' she said.
'So go and buy those and sell them here in Kuwait. Better than to have our men engage in forbidden sexual relations.'
What does Russia say?
2 wars, thousands dead, destroyed cities, secret police and putting a strong man in charge.
That's what Russia says.
eff them is what they say
