 'Concentrated' camps for refugees: Austria's far-right government faces protests over anti-immigration agenda
Protesters compared Austria's new leaders to Nazis days after the new interior minister announced a plan to create camps for refugees that would keep them 'concentrated in one place.'
Russian journalist Anna Politkovskaya was murdered on Vladimir Putin's birthday in October 2006. Two years earlier I interviewed her at her desk in the Moscow offices of Novaya Gazeta, shortly after she had been poisoned on a flight to Beslan. 
​Lest we forget how Vladimir Putin cemented his power. By ordering the slaughter of the Chechen people, under the guise of "protecting Russia from terrorism".  This film was put together to mark the 25th anniversary of the start of the Russian-Chechen war. It was mostly filmed in Karabulak refugee camp, Ingushetia, with Bentley Dean in January 2000. The Russian military had been carrying out "cleansings" in Chechnya, for four months already. Journalists were banned. An estimated 300,000 Chechens were killed in the two wars combined.
Ljoma Viskhanov was 8 years old in 1944, when Stalin gave the order for the entire Chechen and Ingush population to be deported from their homeland in the North Caucasus to Central Asia. Here is his story. (In Chechen with English subtitles.)
