lpv:translated text	"Mr President, although this does not mean that I approve of the policy of the Chechen nationalist leaders, I wish to say on behalf of my colleagues and myself, that we are disgusted at the vile deeds the Russian army has committed in Chechnya. This is a despicable war, whose prime victims are the people of Chechnya, but also the young Russian soldiers. We are also appalled, however, at the attitude of the western powers, in particular the European ones. The British Prime Minister’s recent visit to Moscow, the way he toadied to the butcher-in-chief Putin, reflect the general attitude of the western powers. What public opinion sees is a few declarations condemning certain aspects of the war in Chechnya; what we are actually seeing is political and financial support for the Kremlin. Any western loans that have not been hijacked by the Yeltsin clan can thus be spent on pursuing the war against Chechnya. Many of the parties represented here in Parliament form part of governments that are pursuing this policy of conciliation and support. Under those circumstances, the vote in Parliament can only serve as a fig-leaf for the hypocrisy of the European big powers and their profound complicity with the crimes the Russian leaders have committed in Chechnya."@en1
