Russia’s Caucasus Fault Line: A Hidden Ticking Bomb?
from What World Leaders NEED to Know about Russia · host Elvira Bary
The North Caucasus may look stable, but beneath the surface lie memories of conquest, ethnic rivalries, unresolved territorial disputes, armed networks, and political bargains that depend on Moscow’s money and fear. In this video, Elvira Bary explains how Russia conquered the region, how Stalin’s deportations reshaped it, why Putin governs Chechnya through Ramzan Kadyrov, and what could happen if the Kremlin becomes too weak to maintain control. The Caucasus is not one rebellion waiting to begin—it is a collection of very different societies whose old loyalties and grievances could reappear when central power starts to fail JOIN ME ON THE JOURNEY👉 Buy Me A Coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/elvirabary👉 Donate with PayPal: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=CSAQ25WWN979A👉 My books on Amazon: https://amzn.to/465Co4Q👉 Sign-up for news about the New Book here: https://elvirabary.com/elvira-barys-newsletter/ Elvira Bary YouTube Channel (115K Subs): https://www.youtube.com/@elvirabary JOIN ME ON THE JOURNEY 👉 Sign-up for news about the New Book here: https://elvirabary.com/elvira-barys-newsletter/ Buy Me A Coffee - https://buymeacoffee.com/elvirabary Donate with PayPal - https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=CSAQ25WWN979A
