The Ingush-Chechen territorial dispute concerning two districts of the Ingush republic should be settled as soon as possible, Ingush leader Yunus-bek Yevkurov said today.
Yevkurov also warned against Chechen provocations and recalled the recent fight between Chechen and Ingush police officers in the settlement of Arshty.
According to Yevkurov, the Chechen authorities are trying to boost the conflict and intimidate residents of Ingush villages.
The conflicted started when Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov said that two districts of the Ingush republic are actually Chechen lands that should be returned to the Chechen people. The statement immediately provoked vehement criticism in Ingushetia.
