This is a disgusting war between the thief and murderer Yeltsin and the Chechen Nazis on the other side, the Chechen people unfortunately found themselves in the middle, and suffered terrible and unfairly. And the Russian conscripts found themselves hostages of the situation.

But my idea of the Chechen people completely turned upside down when we started working and communicating.

I had a similar experience travelling through Central America last year. Even I was a little nervous and I had been to more than 70 countries at that point. We just always hear in the US and Canada that there are constant murders and kidnappings due to the drug war. It was totally fine. I was careful, knew where I was going in advance, didn't go out late at night and stayed in the safest parts of each city. It was actually a great experience and I would highly recommend this beautiful region. So I am not surprised by your experience in Chechnya. I also recognize that my government is way overprotective in terms of the advice it posts. For example, before I went to Montenegro and I had to laugh because the Canadian government travel website warned of celebratory gunfire as a danger. Ridiculous! I had a great time there and never saw a gun once. I think that really you can go almost anywhere in the world and be fine - just do your research in advance. Most people are just trying to live their daily life and the news media really exaggerates most of the time. Lastly, I am currently in Armenia and I actually had people warn me it isn't safe because there are violent protests in Yerevan right now (no, not right now because I have been here for several days and have only met friendly people, no protests - besides, there are protests everywhere from time to time, so what?!) and the war with Azetbaijan is very dangerous (I am hundreds of kilometers from the war zone). THey wouldn't believe me when I told them it was fine - they would rather believe second hand information than first hand experience - it's crazy.

I request to all our hindu brothers and sisters to worship only one God. As our Indonesian malasiyan, maldives brother and sisters rejected idol worshipping and accepted Islam. So that, our motherland India should also achieve peace as peace is established in Indonesia Malaysia Maldives. And our people should also be able to Enter in God's Paradise.. And be saved by hellfire. All Indonesian sanatani brother and sisters converted to Islam after finding Islam is truth. And there were no Islamic invansion in indonesia Malaysia Maldives. hence, they were not converted by force , they converted to Islam by themselves.. They respect there ancestors but they worship only one true God and follow his last messenger prophet Mohammed pbuh. We can be a Muslim and respect our ancestors and read Mahabharata and ramayan as a history. But today The only true religion of God in the world is Islam. May be sanatan dharm was true religion of God but it was manipulated by its priests for worldly gain. And sanatan dharm is now totally corrupted and manipulated. So the God sent last prophet whose name is prophet Muhammad pbuh. Prophet Mohammed was the messenger sent by Allah/God to all MANKIND. And the Book which was revealed upon him is not corrupted till now. And all his teaching is preserved till now. So, worship only CREATOR not his creation. DO THE BHAKTI OF ALLAH ONLY.

@@gabriellagirardi4741 Some former soviet republics (well ok, technically Chechnya still is one, then again not really) are now ruled by more or less autocrats who run them as their personal fiefdoms. Another example would be Kazakhstan, were the ruler even named the capitol city after himself. In Chechnya (now run by the son of Achmad Kadyrow, Ramsan) the deal with Putin is more or less "make sure there won't be another Beslan, then nobody will question how you run your show there". And his show is very similar to some copy of Saudi Arabia, with himself as the untouchable king. And yes, for a youtuber with possibly 100k people noticing missing uploads after an announcement "I'll go there" I'm darn sure there will be efforts that there won't be any incidents to report on and everything is safe (they have a pretty active and well oiled secret service machine going on there). My worry would be here that some random "unknown" girl being encouraged by this report to go there might be in danger to make a rather different experience. All those travel warnings exist for a reason after all, sometimes even the enemy's propaganda contains some harsh truth.

Anything resembling criticism of Islamism/Kadyrov family or random things "insulting the chechnyan pride" could bring her in big trouble, even abroad. Their networks are wide and reach far. As an example: A pretty big travel vlogger visiting there was cited to government officials, intimidated into airing an apology on local TV and deleting his video for an upload where he said "chechen chick" during a train ride. So actually colour me a bit surprised she mentioned all the horny dudes constantly looking after her on the streets :) I hope this little red flag is big enough to alert any random single travelling women.

To justify the second war against Chechnya the FSB boomed the apartment building and falsely blamed it on Chechnya freedom fighters “ terrorist (( From 1999 to 2009, the Fifth Service grew and took charge of Russia’s brutal war in Chechnya, where the FSB, not the army, called the shots. It was the Moscow apartment building bombings in September 1999, which killed 300 and wounded more than 1,000, that then-Prime Minister Putin used to justify that war, claiming the attacks were undertaken by Chechen militants.
