Forces attacked this maternity clinic in the city of matthew and its not the 1st time russia has done Something Like this. Russian forces bomb the maternity clinic right here in chechnya, a russian republic in 1999. The word chechnya shouldnt have been for us as a signal webb is politic. Imaging is chechnya, majority muscle in republic and southern russia, and formerly part of the soviet union, around 1500000 people live here, mostly ethnic chechen. People that has resisted pressuring me throughout history. In the early 19 ninetys, the soviet union collapsed. During that time, a Political Movement formed intentionally of chechens who wanted an independent state. Instead of being part of the newly formed russian states. That russia was simply afraid that this would create a domino effect and the other regions home to ethnic minorities would break away too. So rochelle launched its 1st war on chechen now very bloody war that russian lost. It brought chaos to church now, but also a defacto independence. The 1st touching more increased instability in the region which offered a breeding ground for radical islam is in 1999 a series of apartment bom, based in 3 russian cities, killed 100 and spread fear among the population. The russian government claimed chechen terrorist were responsible and started a 2nd war in chechnya who really wants to behind the attacks. Its still unclear. Several experts say they werent coordinated by russian have secret service. We have a speed to find a pretext for the war. So put, you can put later both that she was the one who had restored stability. What is clear, dont look at this chart. 14 became very popular at the beginning of the war. And he did his best to reinforce this image as being the strong man protecting his country on that he maintains today. And he was elected as president a couple of months later. 14 labeled the war in chechnya as a Counter Terrorist operation aimed at fighting is limited extremism congestion method. Which doesnt mean you to that even though you just go to the 911 terror attacks and the us made it easier for protein to sell. The narrative of fighting extreme is in church now. There were indeed several deadly is the most terror attacks and russia on, in the early 2, thousands. But whats the charging more, really about fighting terrorism . Well get to that. Lets look at ukraine now. Ukraine used to be a so good republic. So im like, chechnya ukraine became independent when the soviet union collapsed, but its still have close ties to russia. Overtime ukraine began moving away from russia and its fear of influence and closer to the European Union and nato, the food you hated that. He refused to accept ukraine as a separate entity, 1st, illegally amex and crimea, in 2014 and inciting a war in eastern ukraine, them in 2022, launching an o out invasion. This is chechen of capital, grossly. Thousands of civilians were killed when Russian Forces seized the city limits. The United Nations later called grossly the most destroyed city on earth, the and heres somebody you for it in eastern ukraine, after russias forces occupied the city in 2022. After a 3 months each. Almost all residential buildings were destroyed. The ukrainian sources say more than 20000 civilians were killed and menu port when um, they kept the images from your brain after wallace struggle to differentiate between the 2. And that it was a horrifying realization. But sometimes i couldnt tell which one was brought me and which one was, lets say, well, you know, nice to meet of a witness, the wording cause me as a child. Now look at this suburb of grossly nobody. Oh, the person forces around a so called cleansing operations here and reportedly executed at least 60 civilians in one day. That reminds us of the horrors of boucher which we saw at the beginning of the war against a crane there on the outskirts of the capital t is russian soldiers loaded houses, tortured, raped, and killed civilians. The beaming ships now bore in ukraine, the war price that we see the human rights violations. They will not sign the sides of the war, but they are indeed an incremental event. All the russian was that, thats russia expert, thatd be efficient. Boats and catch, you know, and ukraine pushing failed to achieve. His initial goal is with victory. So hes essentially using brute force to compensate for miscalculations in warfare such as not expecting resistance. Pushing is using the same approach as he did in his 1st more in chechnya fest researcher james mickland toxic casey love that he faced resistance. You should shift the indiscriminate arrow bombardment and shedding to destroy that resistance. This is destruction that carries no direct me that you need. Its reflect a complete disregard for the lives of civilians. Is the russian way of wars, especially brutal we asked, does that mean official wears just covers the book about putting floors the, the doing was conducted by democrats and countries have done, but they are divisions in russia. These go crimes are systemic and they are really an instrument in the war consciously applied by the russian machine. And the smile is, continues indicated, regions look at what happened after detection war was officially over. The ones were meaning you are living, you know, pretty much open present not is to meet about knows what shes talking about. Her mother and natania was an internationally renowned human rights activist. She was gathering evidence on human rights abuses and checks. Now, when she was shot dead, the Human Rights Organization thats natalia, worked with claims and im due to a force behind this. He is charging us ruler and known for his brutality. Candid us was installed by pushing in the wake of the chechen war in order to bring the republic under full control. So this kind of deal between moscow friends ive had 0. Interesting. Yeah. The establishment of these pop up regions in the occupied territories. Thats clearly something that also tells us important things about the future of the subject by territories. This is what being official is talking about. This russian map shows these youre printing territories as russian almost 20 percent of ukraine is illegally occupied by russian. What pushing the teeth with cadets in chechnya, hes not trying to do in russian occupied ukraine with these kremlin friendly leaders. The you wish you were going to get done yet . Some of it. Im not sure if you could. Lets see with the remember how devastating the destruction wash and value point east and ukraine well, pushing the occupiers quickly started transforming the city also the, and look at all these newly built apartment blocks it seems as if the russian is doing the same here as in chechnya, more than 20 years ago, rebuilding the city to make people quickly forget what happened the but how does food you achieve this . Well, she now controls any kind of information and represses opposition. During the 1st catching more, the russian public knew what was happening. And Many Russians were against it. Vision learn the lessons of the fast chechen, which was to keep the media out of yeah, to force him to control of the employer and outside of the information. He has ramped up propaganda throughout the years. And since the full scale invasion of ukraine repressive loss criminalize any kind of critical journalism about russias war, the same now goes for the russian occupied territories of ukraine. So we see theres certainly a playbook that pushing has been using throughout the wars in chechnya and ukraine. Certain tactics, using sheer brutality to crush any resistance. Even though its a way of making up for initial miscalculations that can you crane ramping up repressions to control defeated regions and hiding that with massive propaganda and censorship. These other similarities. But what is different between the 2 wars . Is the International Reaction all the fatality of proteins more in chechnya didnt really lead to any knock back for the kremlin those this really famous example of the same night when tony blair, the former Prime Minister of the u. K was of the oprah or with with him, there was a big one big be grossly very few remained ignorant of what happened in chechnya. And they wanted to be a current event because it didnt tough that interest to full out was russia too much thought to. Western ignorance was also in display when russia invaded georgia in 2008, and then supported the syrian dictator also in his war. But that changed with russias full scale invasion. Dr. Crane in 2022. The world was shocked. And there was an unprecedented amount of solidarity ukraine. Exciting or crying on to cutting natural crane grades. These countries are supporting you print with weapons and she monitoring aid. After 2 years of all of the war, western support seems to be waning. But you print is still asking for more weapons and munitions to regain its territory. We saw a rush and the doctors talk takes just like it didnt just now. Im not staying a longer game and is waiting for the west to get boats to get for the new king. Dislike. Many of the douglas west and douglas football is covering things in just now. And if the west of skip was and a fusion does, can subjugate ukraine, the will continue to see this not repeat it until until somebody stops it, or until its too late, which is playbook from his war in chechnya has shown you once victory at any cost his political career began with the war in chechnya, and the question is, will it ends with the war in ukraine . The how can we improve life in all the cities with more and more people across africa and around the globe moving to other areas. This question has never been more important. I am some drunk of homes adrenal do a writing comp. Hello. Welcome to yet another exciting edition of equal office. And i chris who lives in lagos, nigeria, on the show today, well look at how we could cleared up all cities making life better for ourselves and our environment
