Staunton, March 31 – Now that the
first case of coronavirus infection in Ingushetia has been confirmed and the
republic authorities have called on residents to stay home except for essential
business, some Ingush have turned to the Internet to demand that Magas close
its airport;
Behind that wave is the fact that
Chechens who are coming from Moscow have been forced to land in Magas now that
Ramzan Kadyrov has shut down the airport there to all non-residents. Ingush say that their republic should shut
the airport rather than accept such flights. They also say the ground border of
the republic should be closed.
The
other main complaint Ingush have is that local stores are boosting prices in
the face of shortages. Some Ingush who are now posting online are saying that
the authorities should investigate and enforce anti-monopoly laws (kavkaz-uzel.eu/articles/347751/
and kavkaz-uzel.eu/articles/347726/).
