Putin, speaking to top parliamentarians in the Kremlin, said Russia "will not send our soldiers to Afghanistan, but we shall open corridors and we shall help the Northern Alliance," Boris Nemtsov, head of the liberal SPS, told Interfax news agency.

No need, there are lots of mujahedeen scum that needs to be cleaned up in Chechnya. It would help immensely if America finally condemned the Chechen terrorists instead of supporting them and pushing Russia to come to a "political solution".
