There are people from Saudi Arabia in Jamaahs who fighting in Chechnya. We know who feeds them. If previously their strength was diminishing, then this year they got a lot of people. Number of clashes and casualties are increased.

 

The Jamaahs have intensified in Dagestan and Ingushetia. If we won’t normally work now in the North Caucasus, then a South Ossetia would be repeated elsewhere, or a third campaign in Chechnya will be provided. The fight with our ones and the displacement of unwanted led the Wahhabis to raise their heads. Caucasus is Russia’s vulnerable place.
