Founders of "Association of Caucasian Bloggers" want to get officially registered
The public organization "Association of Caucasian Bloggers", which was founded on October 20, will be registered with the Ministry of Justice in the nearest future. This was told to the "Caucasian Knot" by Beslan Tsechoev, the initiator of the Association, a journalist and a blogger.
"The main purpose of the "Association of Caucasian Bloggers" is to coordinate bloggers' efforts directed to the consolidation of the Caucasian nations," said Beslan Tsechoev. "We should together confront the conflicts between representatives of the fraternal nations, who live in our multinational country, and promote various social projects."
"Everybody can join the "Association of Caucasian Bloggers"; it will unite people with different views and opinions in a kind of a brotherhood. Participation in the Association does not impose any obligations; however, people will take the moral obligation to oppose each other within ethics and traditions of the Caucasus," Beslan Tsechoev has emphasized.
At present, more than 50 people from all regions of the North-Caucasian Federal District (NCFD) joined the Association.
Makhmud Malsagov, a blogger from Ingushetia, believed that "Association of Caucasian Bloggers breaks the stereotype of the Caucasus as the territory of ethnic confrontation."
Marina Abramkina, a deputy of the People's Assembly of the Republic of Dagestan, also expressed her desire to join the Association of bloggers. "I believe that this communication is not just an extension of friendly relations, but also a real contribution to strengthening the moderate information field of the NCFD."
