Sputnik: Beslan Hostage Crisis Toughest Moment of Presidency – Putin
Vladimir Putin has singled out two hostage crises, at a school in Beslan in southern Russia and at a Moscow theater, as the two toughest moments of his presidency.
MOSCOW (Sputnik) – Russian President Vladimir Putin has singled out two hostage crises, at a school in Beslan in southern Russia and at a Moscow theater, as the two toughest moments of his presidency.
"Of course, it is those horrible terrorist attacks. That is Beslan [school] and Dubrovka theater [in Moscow]," Putin said in a made-for-TV film to be broadcast on Sunday.
The documentary entitled "President" and hosted by Russian journalist Vladimir Solovyov is dedicated to the 15th anniversary of Putin's presidency.
WNU Editor: Wikipedia has a good summary on the Beslan school massacre and on the Moscow theater massacre. The single surviving Beslan terrorist is still unrepentant for what he did .... ‘I don’t feel guilty’: Single surviving Beslan terrorist unrepentant 10 years after tragedy (RT).
