Chechen leader in Strasbourg: Russian pseudo-opposition is Putin's soft power.

The head of the 'United Force', the Chechen national liberation movement, Jambulat Suleymanov, stated that the true Russian opposition should be representatives of the oppressed peoples of the RF. He believes that the 'anti-Putin' opposition does not allow one to think about the collapse of the empire. Suleymanov suggests reaching out to European politicians to remind them of the necessity of decolonizing the RF.

Suleymanov criticizes Russian oppositionist Vladimir Kara-Murza, who stated that it is easier to kill Ukrainians than Russians, because these two nations are similar. The head of the movement reveals that Kara-Murza does not consider non-ethnic Russians as people and looks at them with disdain and contempt. The idea of creating a communication platform for the oppressed peoples has already been discussed with the heads of various delegations in PACE.
