Russia Withdraws From Chechnya

After 15 years of bloody conflict, the Russian authorities say they have ended their military campaign in the predominantly Muslim region of Chechnya.

Russian forces have fought two wars against separatist Chechen fighters since the collapse of the Soviet Union.

Last month, President Dmitry Medvedev said Chechnya was stable enough to ease the security restrictions in force there.

Putin's done plenty of good things for his country but I agree that he's been the biggest shitbag about Chechnya.
I hear Dmitry's going against the grain and trying to distance himself from Putin which could be why he ordered this. Then again it might all be a Putin masterplan or something.

Either way he's going to get re-elected a couple of years from now so er
