MOSCOW NO LONGER WORRIED ABOUT TATAR SEPARATISM.

Federal Security Service director Sergei Stepashin said that “we are not particularly worried about” nationalist movements in Tatarstan, Vechernyaya Kazan reported April 4. The FSS director did reject the calls of some Tatar parliamentarians to remove that republic’s KGB from federal jurisdiction. Stepashin said that such people “either don’t understand the nature of our work, or the republic’s KGB should spend more time” following nationalist movements there.
