Documents obtained by the Russian press show a number of reports by Colonel Grigori Cianturia, head of the Georgian Interior Ministry’s counterintelligence office, who had observed the work of the organization known as ”the Caucasus Fund” (Caucasus Foundation).
This foundation was established in 2008, immediately after the Russian-Georgian conflict in South Ossetia, “to establish control of the processes taking place in the North Caucasus region,” notes the publication, and it’s funded with direct support from the U.S.-based Jamestown Foundation, whose board of directors included Zbigniew Brzezinski, former national security adviser to President Jimmy Carter.
In reports submitted to the Interior Minister Irakli Garibaşvili, by the Georgian Interior Ministry’s counterintelligence office, it was stated that “during the Jamestown Foundation Caucasus which took place in the summer of 2012, there were a series of workshops and conferences for young people in the Caucasus, including Russian Caucasus” .
The documents obtained and published by Russian media show that Tamerlane Ţsarnaev, the terrorist involved in the bombing in Boston, was present at several of the training sessions organized by the “Caucasus Fund” from the period of January to July of 2012, when Tamerlane left the U.S.. Here, young people received training on how to prepare and carry out terrorist acts.
Georgian secret services have reported that since 2008, the “Caucasus Fund” was responsible for recruiting young people from the Caucasus region to be used to destabilize Russia, including the use of terrorist acts and fostering extremism. During its recruitment campaign, the fund has spent more than $ 2.3 million that came from American donors.
In Dagestan, when questioned by U.S. Embassy personnel from Moscow, the parents of the two main suspects in the Boston bombing said that their son Tamerlane, killed by American police last week, never came into contact with radical Islam operatives, according to a Wednesday report by the AFP.
Also, the Dagestani Interior Minister, Abduraşid Magomedov said that “Tamerlane Ţsarnaev had no contact with the separatists in the North Caucasus. To try to prove that Tamerlane was influenced by the ideas of radical Islam in the Caucasus is a tactic to blame others.”
