International conference on Russian-Chechen war took place in Copenhagen

An international conference devoted to the problem of the Russian-Chechen war was held in the capital of Denmark on November 24. It was accompanied with the demonstration of documentaries about the war and violence in Chechnya.

The conference was arranged by Scandinavian support committees for Chechnya. Delegates of the conference were activists of analogous committees from 15 European countries, as well as journalist Anna Politkovskaya, First Deputy Foreign Minister of the Chechen Republic of Ichkeria Usman Ferzauli, former FSB officer Aleksandr Litvinenko, Chairman of the Danish Socialist People's Party Holger K. Nielsen, and Foreign Editor of the Politiken newspaper Vibeke Sperling.

The aim of the conference was to coordinate the activity of the support committees for Chechnya, to work out measures to stir up political actions directed against war and violence in Chechnya. The conference organizers and delegates believe that from the scale and political consequences for Russia, the Caucasus and Europe, the war in Chechnya is no longer "an internal affair of the Russian Federation" as the Kremlin declares. Therefore, energies of all the international community are needed to stop this war.
