Medan de ryska specialstyrkorna umgås med sina svenska kollegor i Boden fortsätter blodbadet i Kaukasus. Laila Freivalds fick igår ett brev från en kollega hon knappast känns vid....
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Chechen Republic of IchkeriaThe Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Chechen Republic of Ichkeria presents its compliments to Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Kingdom of Sweden and declare a resolute protest concerning the coming cooperation in the field of military of the Ministry of Defense of the Kingdom of Sweden with military sub-units of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation which is obviously taking part in war crime during the ongoing occupation of Chechnya by the Russian military forces. Recently it has been published in European and Russian media that the Ministry of Defense of Sweden is planning a joint military exercise with 138th motorized brigade of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation.
Also comments of the Secretary of Defense of Sweden stating that the joint exercise is nothing but the progress on Russian and Sweden relations were announced. Based on above mentioned the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Chechen Republic of Ichkeria would like to inform the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Kingdom of Sweden that the Chechen Republic of Ichkeria still is in war with the Russian Federation, and based on clear evidence of aggression following by war crime, crime against humanity, mass violation of human rights, ecological and humanitarian disaster the Chechen side all ready appoint well known international lawyers to investigate such with following appeal to international court.
Based on these circumstances we keep a right to condemn the Ministry of Defense of Kingdom of Sweden for its cooperation with terror units, which was announced as "units of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation".
At the same time the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Chechen Republic of Ichkeria believe that Swedish tax payers, who traditionally condemn the Russian violations in Chechnya, are in sharp disagreement with the decision met by the Ministry of Defense of their own country.
Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Chechen Republic of Ichkeria takes this opportunity once again to express our highest consideration to the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Kingdom of Sweden.
