We should have a ready ear for Mr. Berezovsky’s assertions relating nukes at the Chechen fighters’ possession. The man can be trusted due to his long-standing close links with the Chechen separatists’ warlords. The lust of the Islamic radicals for radioactive materials to produce nuclear weapons is widely known. Chechen fighters settled in Georgia were approached by their ‘brothers in faith’ from Pakistan for help in acquiring the necessary stuff to make a ‘dirty nuke’. Berezovsky was nearly the first to learn of the news. The deal was really on the ice. The Pakistanis experience no lack of money while Chechens seem to really possess the radioactive Cs-137 used to be stored at the facilities belonging to Georgian enterprises specializing in scientific research works. Due to poor financing they can’t ensure the relevant security to guarantee the safety of the materials. So we should see this info as true enough. Berezovsky’s got his trustee in Georgia. His name is Badri Patarkatsishvili. So Mr. B. had showed interest in the deal via this man. But the share he wanted seemed huge enough for Chechens partners in common lucrative business of kidnappings and similar sorts of ‘operations’. This what had forced B. to declare in open the ‘nuclear threat’ originating with Chechen and Pakistani radical elements. What’s his idea? Firstly, he is eager to attract attention to his personality. Berezovsky is not the kind of man to stay long in shade. Secondly, he’s trying to blackmail not so sophisticated Chechen and Pakistan ‘businessmen in nuclear terrorism’. ‘I delivered only tiny part of the whole truth. If I don’t benefit from the deal your trade will go bust. As for me I‘ll get the reputation of the Saviour the Pakistani ‘dirty nuke’. This is what B. is bearing in his mind I guess. Nice going of Mr. Berezovsky!
