Russian Foreign Ministry spokesman Alexander Yakovenko said that Chechen separatist emissaries Ilyas Akhmadov and Akhmed Zakayev are in fact using the information capabilities of the United States and Britain as a bridgehead for their propaganda. \"Unfortunately these individuals are taking advantage of the news scene of the United States and Britain and are actually transforming those countries into a bridgehead for their ideological activities,\" Yakovenko told a Friday briefing in Moscow. He said Russia would continue efforts to extradite the two men who were involved in terrorist activities.The Central Asia-Caucasus Analyst is a biweekly publication of the Central Asia-Caucasus Institute & Silk Road Studies Program, a Joint Transatlantic Research and Policy Center affiliated with the American Foreign Policy Council, Washington DC., and the Institute for Security and Development Policy, Stockholm.
