Tamerlane Tsarnaev, arrested on suspicion of committing a terrorist attack in Boston, was trained in Georgian organization "Caucasus Foundation," which along with the American NGO Jamestown was engaged in recruiting people from the North Caucasus to work in the interests of the U.S. and Georgia. This is the conclusion of Russian journalists who have got the documents of the Counterintelligence Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Georgia.
Last week, the U.S. suffered a series of terrorist attacks, the first one after September 11, 2001. Two explosions thundered at the finish of the Boston Marathon with an interval of few seconds; an hour later the explosion occurred in a building at the Kennedy Public Library. The victims were three men and about 200 injured. Two days later, the criminals opened fire at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, a policeman was killed in a shootout.
Natives of the North Caucasus, brothers Tsarnaev are suspected in committing bombings and attacks. As a result of the shootout Tamerlane Tsarnaev was fatally injured. His younger brother escaped, but was arrested on April 20. Now Johar Tsarnaev is in the hospital with injuries and has already given the first testimony, the RBC recalls.
According to the newspaper "Izvestia", reports by the Colonel Chief Directorate Counterintelligence Department Ministry of Internal Affairs of Georgia Gregory Chanturia to the Minister of Internal Affairs Irakli Garibashvili indicate that the "Caucasus Foundation" jointly with the Jamestown Foundation conducted workshops and seminars for young people of the Caucasus, including шеы Russian part, in the summer of 2012. Tsarnaev Tamerlane, who was in Russia from January to July 2012, attended some of them.
"Caucasus Foundation" was established on November 7, 2008, shortly after the Georgian-Ossetian conflict, "to control the processes taking place in the North Caucasus region." Counterintelligence department of the Interior Ministry established a case under the name of "Daryal." Main purpose was to recruit young people and intellectuals of the North Caucasus to enhance instability and extremism in the southern regions of Russia.
The organization monthly got an amount of 33 thousand lari (660 thousand rubles). However, in total since the establishment of the organization before and till January 1, 2013, the allocated sum amounted more than 4 million lari (about 81 million rubles), said in the report by Tchanturia.
The report also mentions that the "Caucasus Foundation" has been working in the three districts of Azerbaijan bordering with Dagestan - Balacan, Zakatalsky and Kakh districts. In Chechnya, through the "Caucasus Foundation" Jamestown Foundation the Georgian special services are looking for those sympathizing to the Georgian people and invite them to various events in the republic under the ingenuous pretexts. According to the edition, the workshops are used to recruit Russians and train for terrorist acts.
Edition's experts are wondering how Tbilisi had found the means to provide funds, and do not exclude the financing from the United States. Thus, the deputy head of the association "Agency of the socio-political initiatives," Iles Tatiev, who is in charge of the North Caucasus Federal District, says that the activities of the "Caucasus Foundation" raise too many questions. "How does Georgia, having great loans, have extra money for some foundations?" the expert says. "I do not exclude that this fund is a kind of branch of the Department of State in the North Caucasus."
The head of the New York office of the Institute for Democracy and Cooperation Andranik Migranyan believes that the activities of the organization well fit into the policy of the Georgian authorities. "Saakashvili's administration is conducting clear anti-Russian line," says the analyst.
A member of the security committee Anatoly Vyborny has even promised to connect to the investigation of the "Caucasus Foundation." "The documents you are talking about are colourable. We still don't see real friendly moves by Georgia and the U.S., their goal is to make Russian a state that can be controlled," said Vyborny.
Note that the Russian Foreign Ministry has repeatedly responded to the ongoing activities of the fund, handing a note of protest to the U.S. representatives in Moscow. And the Jamestown Foundation has repeatedly demonstrated its interest in Georgia and the state of affairs in Russia's North Caucasus. In 2007, the Foundation held a seminar "The Future of Ingushetia" attended by former militants of Aslan Maskhadov.
