Fatima Suleimanova, speaker of the Chechen national liberation movement, spoke at the PACE fall session about Russia holding a large number of Chechen national resistance members and activists captive:
“In Russian prisons today there are between 20,000 and 30,000 Chechens who participated in the #resistance to the russian occupation. They are deprived of the status of prisoners of war. We believe that after February 24, 2022, when russia was recognized as a state sponsor of terrorism and the International Criminal Court issued an arrest warrant for Putin, this issue should be revisited in international institutions such as PACE, OSCE and others.
Even in the exchange of Vadim Krasikov, whom Putin sent to Europe to kill Chechen commander Zelimkhan #Khangoshvili, the issue of Chechen prisoners in russian prisons was not raised. These people are entitled to the status of prisoners of war and relevant rights in accordance with international conventions, as well as to be included in the lists for exchange,” Suleymanova said.
