Quote from Putin: “Those who use this weapon, and it is nothing else but a weapon used against Russia, must understand that both ends of it are equally sharp.”
Details: Putin believes it is important to not only find the executors but all links of the chain, including the people at the very top. “We will undoubtedly find them,” he stressed.
Putin believes that this is not the only paid-for crime. “There are no reliable agencies in this environment. Everything is done for money, motivated not by financial or political beliefs but solely by financial gain. Any information is bought and sold easily. We will definitely find those who ordered the attack,” he claimed.
Background:
- A shooting incident occurred prior to a concert by the band Piknik at the Crocus City Hall in Krasnogorsk, Moscow Oblast, on the evening of 22 March. Afterwards, a large fire broke out in the auditorium. The latest reports say 137 people died, including 3 children, and 180 people were injured.
- ISIS called the terrorist attack on the Crocus City Hall their “most brutal attack in recent years” and posted photos of the terrorists. Their clothing matches that of the detainees whose photos were posted by the FSB. Yet Russia continues to blame Ukraine for the attack without providing any evidence. Kyiv denies these allegations.
- On 1 April, Russian special forces claimed to have detained militants in Dagestan, a subject of the Russian Federation, as they supposedly financed the attackers.
