In the opinion of Alexander Cherkasov, a member of the board of the International Society "Memorial", one of the roots of terrorism in Russia is that residents of the Caucasus are treated not like other citizens of Russia, moreover, not like Muscovites. And in the opinion of political scientist Sergey Markedonov, today the war on terror is seen exclusively as a police action; but the problem cannot be solved by police operations only.
