Why is the Bashkir worse than the Kyrgyz?

There is nowhere to get away from revolutions. Putin even began to collect the overthrown chapters of neighboring states. Probably, he sets them somewhere next door to each other and leads there on excursions of Western leaders: they say, here Akayev lives with my family. The poor Kyrgyz president was brought right about what his revolution found, he did not manage to take anything out: neither money nor clothes - nothing. Of course, we filled him with the refrigerator, and the phrases shared with costumes with him - they have about the same size. His former Minister of Defense is now a gardener. But this high fence is Abashidze ... Well, from this ... how is it? From Adjaria. He, apparently, managed to leave something on the plane. At least for the light, he pays for water. Here the summer house is still empty. Kuchma looked at her. But the house is healthy, it will be oily alone, in the second half Lukashenko settle. Or Nazarbayev. It depends on who quickly asks to extend the hand of friendship.

Well, with these it is more or less clear what to do. But what about when the leaders of our own territories begin to run to Moscow? It is clear that even though the Bashkir Rakhimov, although the Ingush Zyazikov will find a refuge on the vast expanses of the Rublevo highway. The question is not that. The question is, what will remain from the country then?

Recently, in Vladikavkaz, I talked with one of the leaders of the local opposition, which some time ago held an important state post in North Ossetia. “I,” says the former nomenclature worker, “generally support the initiative of President Putin to appoint and remove the heads of regions. Only now I can’t understand: he motivated the need for such a reform by the fact that Russia was attacked by international terrorists, he proposed this innovation after the tragedy in Beslan ... then why didn’t Putin immediately removed Dzasokhov? It is clear that the fault for Beslan lies in many respects on our bosses. You can’t even imagine what the level of corruption is in the republic today. More local budget, I tell you exactly. ”

In fact, the answer to this question is quite obvious: Putin did not remove Dzasokhov at all because he somehow really values ​​the president of North Ossetia. He did not take off, because he does not know who to appoint in return. I asked my interlocutor if anyone from the presidential administration met with representatives of the opposition? “Dmitry Kozak talked with the“ mothers of Beslan ”when they blocked the track,” the former official answered, “but no one has come. But the Kozak is a new person, besides, he is responsible for the entire North Caucasus, not only for our republic. ” Here, in fact, is the whole point: in the Kremlin they simply do not own the domestic political situation in the republic. And they are afraid to appoint the wrong person. What if any Wahhabit will come across? Of course, you can find a prominent Ossetian among retired colonels or generals of the KGB of KGB. He will definitely not be Wahhabis. But along this path we already went in neighboring Ingushetia. It is known how it ended: Zyazikov is about to escape from the republic. However, the inability to solve regional problems can turn into big troubles for the Kremlin.

Today, the common place of all regional protests - even in North Ossetia, even in Bashkiria, even in the Voronezh region, is an attempt to appeal to the central government. Or rather - to the good king. Say, we beat you with a brow, father, save us from local fringers. But the king-priest does not mumble, does not fade. And this means that very soon people will cease to contact him, having an example of the same Kyrgyzstan before his eyes (and what, say, Bashkir is worse than the Kyrgyz?), Sweeping away everything in their path, will carry into power not only not only controlled, but, very well, not even the politicians loyal to the Kremlin who will begin to play the nationalist map. So it was already some time ago in Chechnya. And why is the Bashkir worse than the Chechen?
