At the same time, the head of the delegation highlighted the fact that two conditions should be guaranteed to hold the meeting in Grozny.

Gross said at a meeting with Chechen Prime Minister Ramzan Kadyrov in Gudermes that the idea of the roundtable meeting in Grozny is sound. At the same time, the head of the delegation highlighted the fact that two conditions should be guaranteed to hold the meeting in Grozny. Firstly, those who acknowledge Chechnya as a part of Russia and who renounce force, should have the right to take part in the meeting, he said, adding that Chechens who left Russia\'s internal republic and who are criticizing the Chechen authorities from Moscow, Berlin and other cities should participate in the meeting as well. In 2005, a visit to Chechnya, the analysis of the situation and meeting with the authorities showed that these conditions were not fulfilled, Gross said. Should the PACE delegation come to a conclusion that these conditions are no more an obstacle to the meeting, it may be prepared, the PACE delegation head said. (Interfax)
