"Ladies and gentlemen, September’s events in Beslan have shocked the world with their savagery and inhumanity. There are no words to describe the feelings caused by the murder of children. This act of terror can have no justification whatsoever. At the same time, I should like to emphasise that this event demands from the state political action to prevent such situations in the future, to remove the causes of terrorism. That is not easy. It is much easier to make irresponsible pronouncements about preventive strikes or merely to try and consolidate authoritarian powers. The President of Russia should be trying to assuage the mutual hatreds of the different peoples within Russia. These hatreds were bred by tsarism and continued by Stalinism, and have yet to be resolved. Quite recently, militiamen in Moscow beat up an ex-astronaut, purely because he had a Chechen-sounding surname. It is important for President Putin to show proper concern for every citizen of his country – not only Russians, but other peoples too, and for his immense power to be deployed to create peace and harmony."@en1
