In recent years, the interethnic conflict in Russia is a commonplace phenomenon. Increasingly, one can observe in criminal reports clashes on a national basis, as well as a manifestation of nationalism. This policy area in our country is more relevant than ever, but let's look at the causes of ethnic conflicts in Russia.
Who's guilty?
Adherents of nationalism and a gang of skinheads should not be blamed for this. On the contrary, migrants from the Caucasus and Central Asia are usually to blame for this. They come here with their own rules and mentality, and at the same time they feel free from laws and rules, because much that they cannot do according to Sharia, say, in the Caucasus, is considered permissible in Russia. Often, visitors behave impudently and arrogantly, and a large percentage of crimes are committed by them. In all countries where a large number of immigrants are present, crime begins to grow, and ethnic conflicts often occur. From this we can make a logical conclusion - nationalism arose as a defensive reaction to the lawlessness of migrants. The interethnic conflict in Russia does not arise at all “synthetically”. In the Caucasians themselves, national self-consciousness is also very pronounced, they are united in diasporas and gangs, united by religious affiliation. And often, any illegal action of migrants in relation to the indigenous population grows in ethnic conflict. In Russia, the dominance of the Asian workforce does not create conditions for Russian labor, which also cannot but affect the relations between representatives of nationalities.
Interethnic Conflicts in Russia 2013
April, Stavropol ... in this region there are a lot of Caucasians who arrived from neighboring Dagestan and Ingushetia. "Guests" behave extremely defiantly and aggressively, becoming the cause of the growth of all kinds of crimes: from theft to murder. For example, Nikolai Naumenko, a young man of 25 years old, an athlete, died in April 2013 at the hands of two Chechens.
July, the city of Pugachev (Saratov Region): at the age of 20, a soldier of the Airborne Forces died at the hands of a Chechen. A native of the Caucasus used a scalpel as a murder weapon.
October, Moscow, Biryulyovo district. The assassination of Yegor Shcherbakov, a young (25 years old) Russian guy. His killer is a person of Caucasian nationality, molested a girl on the street, and Shcherbakov tried to protect her. The migrant in response stabbed the young man, the blow was fatal.
December, the city of Arzamas (Nizhny Novgorod region). Killed a 26-year-old man of Caucasian ethnicity. A knife wound was found on the victim’s body, the ambulance did not have time to deliver the victim to the hospital, he died on the way.
In addition to the above-mentioned sensational situations, migrants rob and murder residents of Russia every day, hundreds of girls, and sometimes even children, become victims of rape. And in St. Petersburg, the aggressive inappropriate behavior of Asian immigrants has recently been expressed in open fire on the streets of the city.
This means that the interethnic conflict in Russia is a phenomenon that has specific causes and is daily “fueled” by the behavior of people of Caucasian nationality. The clashes will continue to take place, acquiring even greater turnover, until a visa regime is introduced and the problem of illegal migration is solved.
