What are the old and new enmities between Russia and Chechnya? Why did they fight many wars?

Speaking of terrorist organizations, Chechnya can be regarded as a major force, and even made Russia once the country most frequently attacked by terrorists. The feud between Russia and Chechnya can be traced back to the tsarist era.

Chechnya, with a land area of 1.79 million square kilometers and a population of 2 1 10,000, is an autonomous republic in the Russian North Caucasus. Have their own language and national culture. 18 16, the czar invaded and a fierce war broke out. In order to occupy this land, the tsar slaughtered a large number of Chechens by force and genocide in the next 60 years, and finally conquered them.

During World War II, Chechens cooperated with Germans to seek independence, and Stalin also took extreme measures to expel Chechens to Central Asia and Siberia. As a result, a large number of Chechens starved to death, and the contradiction between the two ethnic groups deepened again.

After the disintegration of the Soviet Union, the Chechen people who had been oppressed for a long time saw the dawn of hope, declared independence and won the support of the United States, which made Yeltsin, then Russian Prime Minister, very angry and launched a massive Chechen war. However, due to hasty preparations and fierce resistance from Chechen people, Russia was once defeated. It was not until Putin came to power and 654.38+10,000 troops marched into Chechnya that Chechnya was pacified again. Even so, more than 72 million Russian soldiers died in the battlefield, which can be said to be a residual victory.

Later, because of deep hatred, Chechnya still refuses to give in, and is still plagued by terrorist attacks and guerrilla warfare. But the overall stability, the rest to the time.
