Bombings In Russia: Context Review Of Saudi Statements This Year

INFOWARS and Paul Joseph Wattson’s report today about the Volgograd Bombings raises appropriate questions about what happened earlier this year, when Saudi Arabian intelligence chief Prince Bandar told Putin the Chechen terrorist groups “are controlled by us.”  The Bandar/Putin meeting explored possible strategic alliances and a new relationship between the two nations for Russian acquiescence on Western plans for Syria.  A key portion of a transcript of the meeting appears below.

Bandar told Putin, “There are many common values ​​and goals that bring us together, most notably the fight against terrorism and extremism all over the world. Russia, the US, the EU and the Saudis agree on promoting and consolidating international peace and security. The terrorist threat is growing in light of the phenomena spawned by the Arab Spring. We have lost some regimes. And what we got in return were terrorist experiences, as evidenced by the experience of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt and the extremist groups in Libya. … As an example, I can give you a guarantee to protect the Winter Olympics in the city of Sochi on the Black Sea next year. The Chechen groups that threaten the security of the games are controlled by us, and they will not move in the Syrian territory’s direction without coordinating with us. These groups do not scare us. We use them in the face of the Syrian regime but they will have no role or influence in Syria’s political future.”

Putin thanked King Abdullah for his greetings and Bandar for his exposition, but then he said to Bandar, “We know that you have supported the Chechen terrorist groups for a decade. And that support, which you have frankly talked about just now, is completely incompatible with the common objectives of fighting global terrorism that you mentioned. We are interested in developing friendly relations according to clear and strong principles.”
