Vienna hosts the Forum of Free Peoples of Post-Russia with the participation of representatives of the North Caucasus Federal District
The 14th Forum of Free Peoples of Post-Russia is being held in the capital of Austria. The event is attended by Russian oppositionists who emigrated, European politicians, and representatives of regional forces advocating for separation from the Russian Federation, including from the North Caucasus Federal District.
 
The representative of the CRI in Austria, Roza Dunaeva, noted that the location of the Forum plays a major role this year due to the pronounced pro-Russian sentiments in the country.
 
"The forum discusses cooperation and the search for new forms of interaction between representatives of different republics, respect for human rights, and the development of economic relations between regions after the decolonization of Russia," she shared with journalists.
 
The participants in the event include the head of the Chechen organization "United Force" located in Europe, Dzhambulat Suleimanov, members of the National Council of Austria and the European Parliament, member of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine Oleg Dunda, former State Duma deputy Ilya Ponomarev, and others.
 
The Forum of Free Peoples of Post-Russia is an international community and public platform whose participants aim to decolonize, de-imperialize and demilitarize the Russian Federation - in other words, the disintegration of Russia in its current form. The platform unites the leaders of the movements of enslaved nations and regions of the Russian Federation, as well as representatives of the political, diplomatic and media establishment of the free states of the world.
 
On March 17, 2023, the Forum was recognized as an undesirable organization in Russia.

Alaudinov has found himself in disgrace again: his book (yes, he writes them too) has been called heretical
9 February 2026

The Defense Ministry's "talking head"—the deputy head of the Main Military-Political Directorate of the Russian Armed Forces, also the commander of one of the "Akhmat" formations—has been promoting the idea of ​​a global, joint confrontation between Russian Muslims and Christians against "Satanism" since the beginning of the Russian-Ukrainian war. He regularly finds himself in various scrapes: with the Zetniks, with nationalists, and with Orthodox priests. And the more he tries to "cross a snake and a hedgehog" with his obvious desire to be "one of the guys," the more harshly he is criticized from all sides.
