The President met with representatives of the Mothers of Beslan terrorism victims association
The meeting took place ahead of the 20th anniversary of the horrific terrorist attack in Beslan on September 1-3, 2004. Vladimir Putin's statements:
This tragedy will forever remain an open wound in Russia's historical memory.
We know full well that abroad they not only tried to justify this terrible crime but also provided various kinds of assistance to the terrorists.
As for our adversaries and enemies, they are still actively working to destabilise our country. Just as we fought against terrorists in the past, we must fight those responsible for crimes in the Kursk Region, Donbass and Novorossiya. However, just as we achieved our goals in the fight against terrorism, we will also prevail in the battle against neo-Nazism and ensure that the criminals are held accountable.
Over the years, a programme has been established to provide support to Beslan and, more broadly, to all residents of North Ossetia.
