In the eighties, Tamara was a teacher
of Russian language and literature in Chechnya. Since the year 2000 she
has had to cope with not only the disappearance of her husband but also
breast cancer, an illness with a particularly high incidence in Chechnya
after the recent wars.
Tamara taught us history, Russian
and literature; she was the one who introduced us to Blok and Esenin,
who told us that all the classics of Soviet Socialist Realism weren’t
worth one line of Pasternak.
President Putin has said Russia could redirect its missiles to target
Ukraine if Kyiv joined NATO. According to RFE/RL's guest authors, that
kind of talk is representative of an increasingly truculent foreign
policy, which goes largely unchallenged by Russia's political elite.
Over the past eight years, Russia's repression of its key domestic
institutions has been a defining feature of its governance. The
Kremlin's manipulation of Russia's recent parliamentary elections and
presidential succession are the most recent examples of an
ever-tightening grip on the country's political life.
