Introduction

The conflict of the Chechens and Russians is a conflictthat started in the 16th century when Peter the Great tookthe Russian throne and aspired to make Russia a majormilitary and economic power whose affluence rivaled thatof Europeans. He was able to colonize the Chechens bybrute force. This was the first Chechen-Russian conflict.

On August 26, 1999, The Second Chechen War (War inthe North Caucasus) occurred due to the initiative of theRussian Federation. It is intended to be a response to the

Dagestan Invasion by the Islam InternationalPeacekeeping Brigade. The Russians invaded Grozny, thecapital of the Chechens, and established direct rule overChechnya. It was, of course, after the Russians sent anoffensive. The Chechnyans militants and Chechen

separatists carried out terrorist attacks against civilians inRussia, showing retaliation.

In 2008, the war appeared to have been over, but

separatist militants continued their attacks. The counter-terrorism operation in Chechnya officially ceased on April16 2009. Akhmed Zakayev, the exiled leader of theseparist government, called for a ceasefire against theChechen police force effective August 1.

There are two arguments that proposed of a possiblecause of the conflict. The first argument was greed. It isstated in the greed argument that there is an inherent link

between natural resources and conflict. When naturalresources are abundant more will be provided for thegroup and the more there will be conflicts over theseresources, especially if they are rare in a particular area.The second argument is grievance. It states that theconflicts take place as they battle for justice and ideologyand it is not about the resources. It is possible that theRussians are motivated by Greed, while the Chechensfight because of grievances.

The peace talks should push through simply because if theChechens or the Russians encounter a similar conflict thathas already occurred years ago, they may find another

reason to declare a war against each other Again.

Reflection

1. What are your learning experiences while doing the project?

Researching about this conflict was very hard. We thoughtthat since Russians are very famous people, we will have nodifficulty in finding facts about it. We learned a lot from thisconflict. We found it hard to accept that these neighboringcountries are struggling with each other.

They were not only struggling for resources, there wasalso a conflict in their religion. The Chechens wereMuslims and majority of the Russians were a member of

the Russian Orthodox Church. Religion is really a vitalfactor during conflicts. There is always a boundarybetween them, although this really isnt necessary. If wedisregard stereotyping about religions then there would beless arguments and heated discussions in society.

2. What helped you in finishing your task?

The Internet was a very good source in finding information. Nina

We found a lot of websites containing facts about the twocountries as well as a timeline where the chronological

order of events occurred. Claire

3. What made it difficult for you in finishing the task?

It was very difficult to find effective sources and

information about the causes of the rebellions. Nina We cant deduce the reasons by ourselves so we needed

to find some kind of basis for our conclusions. Claire

Most of the articles we found talked about the history of

the conflict but not the reasons. Both

4. What realizations and insights did you gain from our topic,

Culture?

We realized that the topic that we chose to present is notthat easy to work on. The two sides have so many

conflicts and debates with each other and many peopleare dying because of their rifts. The war took so long toend because of their unending issues and they cant getalong even if they were neighboring countries and mighthave so much in common. Both of us now know that evenother countries experience difficulties in getting along, justlike people. Nina

Somehow, the problem with the Chechens and Russiansresemble that of simple quarrels between relatives orfriends and we can relate it to our everyday lives, only thatproblems in the family cannot ever be resolved by war.

And even if they are neighboring countries, we cantexpect them to have the same views and insights, so it isnatural for them to have misunderstandings. The solutionlies within their hands. Claire
