General Shamanov not cause sympathy of human rights activists.During the military operations in Bamut, Karamahi, Chabanmakhi, the Urus-Martan and Achkhoi-Martan districts, generally wherever he led force actions to suppress the resistance of the armed separatists were numerous violations of human rights.
US State Department does not like this commander.General Shamanov once met with President Bush, but it happened, as it turned out, due to an oversight.The reason for the visit to the United States was fully justified, the Russian delegation tried to clarify the fate of soldiers (even Soviet), captured during the Afghan war.The American general who committed such an unwanted meeting, paid for an oversight position.According to State Department officials, with such an odious person to greet the president of the most democratic country in the world is somehow not with his hands.
war begins not the generals but the army has to fight.During the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict General Shamanov was involved in the fighting on the side of Azerbaijan.Not on its own initiative, of course, he was following orders.
story of Colonel Budanov, who killed as an innocent Chechen girl-sniper has once again confirmed that General Shamanov (using the expression of Marxist) - "not typical."Apparently, the interrogation conducted without a lawyer.
as possible seems to fight, without violating anyone's rights, is unclear.Maybe militants could somehow persuade an amicable lay down their arms?Or it was better to surrender and let yourself vahhabitstvuyut health?
General Shamanov in Chechnya really acted decisively and firmly, it can be said in Yermolovskoye.He was clearly not a diplomat.Well, this is a profession ... I wish this war was not.
It would have been understandable if the "soldier-martinet" did not like the only bright ideals of democracy advocates.Picture violates the integrity of the fact that Minister Serdyukov and he also did not like the.
reason disgrace consisted in resisting that General Shamanov Airborne has an active ongoing military reform, which has no popularity among professional officers.In the absence of the chief (he was retired, on vacation), he insidiously penetrated to the very President of the Russian Federation and enlist its support.And keep the troops under his command, Airborne has saved from ruin serdyukovskoy.
reaction to the daring was not long in coming.In the press there were compromising, showing the public all the aggressive nature of the disgraced general.He is ready to send paratroopers into battle to help his son-in (the former) and discourage him from prosecutors.So with whom povoyuesh, on and rack.
General Shamanov did not deny the fact of the recorded telephone conversation, however, he said that the fair has undergone proofreading, apparently in order to enhance the dramatic effect.Besides judge a person should still not the words spoken in the heat, but by his actions.However, the punishment to which he was subjected, General considers it fair.
