As i decide on what steps to take with regards to the situation surrounding my play in Russia, as the officials are not allowing it to go up again, this is an overview of the statements made by the president of Dagestan Mr. Aliev between 11am and 5pm Monday the 7th of April 2008.
1. He disliked the play but did not ban it. He sees objective look at the North Caucusus war as inclination towards wahhabism.
2. 'Those behind the play suggest that all of us are to blame for what happened in Nord ost and Beslan. We are all to blame? I am to blame? what am i to be blamed for may i ask?'
3. 'They should try to stage this play in Beslan. I will ant to see what will happen to them there.' (Beslan mothers reacted immediately and said that they very much welcomed the play)
4. 'The play is the provocation by the enemies of Russia. Did you notice that it was first staged in London? And shall i remind you where Mr. Berezovsky is hiding? This play is aimed at the destabilisation of our region.'
