On the act of terror in the Domodedovo airport

Statement by YABLOKO's Chairman
January 24, 2011

The Russian Democratic Party YABLOKO mourns the victims of today’s explosion in the Domodedovo airport [near Moscow].

We are wishing recovery to all the injured and express our deep condolences to those who lost their relatives and next of kin.

We are calling the Russian authorities to spare no effort for rendering timely aid to the victims and provision of security measures.

Also we are deeply concerned by the repeated acts of terror, as well as growth of their scale which has been taking more and more human lives.

Today’s tragedy makes us doubt the information from the security services on elimination of the organizers of the explosions in the Moscow metro in March 2010 and other recent acts of terror.

It looks like the new security system at transport, the launching of which was loudly announced after the March acts of terror, has turned out inefficient.

The Russian society can not and should not rely on the victorious assurances by non-transparent law enforcement. The Russian citizens still have not got answers on many questions connected with the circumstances of tragedies at Dubrovka [when the whole theatre were taken hostages] and in the Beslan [school]. Such a situation should be changed.

Public control over the functioning of the law-enforcement and detailed information of the society of the results of their actions is needed for real disarming of those who order and organize such crimes.

Sergei Mitrokhin,
Chair of the YABLOKO party
