Chechen leader demands border with Ingushetia be reconsidered

 

The head of the North Caucasian republic of Chechnya, Ramzan Kadyrov, demands that the republic's border with neighbouring Ingushetia be reconsidered.
The issue was discussed today at a meeting of the republic's cabinet.

According to Kadyrov, the Chechen government has documents proving that the Sunzhensky district and a part of the Malgobeksky districts of Ingushetia are actually Chechen lands.

The idea of reconsidering the border was criticized harshly by the Ingush leader, Yunus-bek Yevkurov.
