Северный Кавказ готовится к Новому году

На Северном Кавказе идет подготовка к новогодним праздникам. Несмотря на то, что в большинстве республик региона проживает в основном мусульманское население, и поэтому они не празднуют Рождество, традиции празднования Нового года, оставшиеся с советских времен, остаются сильными.

В последние годы празднования были особенно едкими в Чечне, где под железным кулаком Рамазана Кадырова, решительно поддерживаемого Кремлем, исламское восстание, охватившее регион после окончания советской власти, было в значительной степени, но не полностью сдержано. Новогодние празднования в столице Грозном широко освещаются российскими СМИ, которые пытаются создать образ нормальности происходящего.
