In the process of opposing between the opposition and the state authorities the non-return point had been already passed by, and there is no chance to settle down the situation in the peaceful way. The war will proceed up to a victory of one of the parties, and after the end of the war the country will not be such as before any more. Now there is 130 thousand Circassians legislatively admitted as compatriots of Russian Federation. They had appeared there as a result of several tragical events. In the XIX century, as a result of the colonial war of Russia in Caucasus, their ancestors appeared on Balkan peninsula which at that time belonged to the Ottoman empire. After the Ottoman empire lost the Balkans, Circassians who lived there, were compelled to move onto the lands controlled by the empire in the near east, in particular Syria and Golan heights. After the Arab-Israeli war in the middle of the XX century many Circassians were compelled to leave their houses again. During that period many Circassians moved to the USA and Europe. The others moved to Damascus and the other cities of Syria. Thus, since that moment as they had left the native land, they were undergone mass resettlement three times. Despite of all those difficulties, Circassians managed to keep their ethnic originality and communications with the native land. In every country they lived in, Circassians were always and still remain legislative citizens and support the official authorities. Also, any of Circassians who had come back home from abroad, did not commit a criminal offence, was not noticed in anti-governmental movements. All of them work and live peacefully, becoming worthy citizens of Russia. In the situation developing today in Syria, Circassians adhere to neutrality. It aggravates even more their position as the both parties wish to use them for the purposes. It brings to killing the peaceful Circassians, and every day such losses increase. If Russian Federation does not take measures for emergency evacuation of the Circassian population from Syria, it will bring to ruin their significant part of Circassians, and dispersion all around the world of the other part, which actually means full and final liquidation of our compatriots in quantity of 130 thousand people. That problem cannot be resolved on public principles or at the level of the regional authorities. A problem of such scale can be solved by only the Federal Center, using all the opportunities and resources. The federal authorities are obliged to intercede for the compatriots, to return them on the historical native land, and thus to finish the circuit of the tragical events and resettlements in the destiny of Circassians of Syria. In that connection it is necessary for the Russian government to carry out immediately the following steps: To organize a special committee on rescue and rehabilitation of the compatriots who appeared in the zone of the war operations which will possess necessary powers and means for the full resolution of the question; To send airplanes with humanitarian help for the peace population of Syria; Mass and universal extraction of the compatriots living in Syria and their accommodation onto the historical native land; Give the refugee status to all the compatriots living in Syria and coming back home, irrespective of having visas and passports for travel abroad; To render material support in the form of time habitation and elevating means; To organize actions and necessary training for integration of the refugees into the Russian society; After stabilization of the situation in Syria to give the Russian citizenship to everyone who wishes to remain there for constant residing. The positive resolution of this question first of all executes the moral duty of Russia. It will also raise the authority of Russia on the international scene. Attraction of the economically active population into republics of Northern Caucasus can solve many social, economic and political problems in the region. Those people certainly become a reliable support of the Russian authority. The understanding of all the benefits from repatriation of the Circassian community characterizes humanity, maturity, wisdom and democratic nature of the Russian state.

Repatriation can change the situation in the world Circassian movement, the initiative in development of which will be after heads of the Russian regions.

The petition of the Syrian Circassians to Dmitry Medvedev had appeared in the end of 2011. The straining conditions in Syria influenced the Circassian Diaspora of that country. The first Circassians in Syria as the historians approve, had appeared in the XVII-XVIII centuries and the stream of their migration amplified in 1860-1880s. At the session of the International Circassian association (ICA) in Nalchik on January, 14th it was decided to ask the leadership of Russian Federation about help in repatriation of Circassians from Syria. Having supported that petition, Arsen Kanokov declared that he not once met with representatives of the Circassian Diasporas and had not doubt of their pro-Russian moods. About organization of communications with Circassian Diaspora, returning of its representatives home to Adygeya, Kabardino-Balkaria, Karachaevo-Circassia they had started talking in the beginning of the 1990s. But those projects remained not implemented, except repatriation of Circassians from Kosovo to Adygeya in 1999. In the 2000s conversations about Circassian Diaspora went in another key. The decision on carrying out in Sochi of the Olympic Games made active the Circassian organizations with anti-Russian positions and caused resistance to carrying out of the Olympiad. They were actively supported by Georgia (in 2009-2010 several conferences with participation of representatives of the Diaspora passed) and the USA on behalf of the Jamestown fund which held those actions. The initiative of the KBR administration which supported the petition of the Syrian Circassians, looks like an attempt to intercept from the opponents of Russia the initiative in “Circassian question”. As the ICA vice-president Muhamed Hafitse noted, repatriation of Circassians who had addressed to Medvedev would affect not only the destiny of that small group. It can make the important change of orienteer in the Circassian theme. Before Kanokov’s statement in KBR not once they made attempts to generate the new agenda of the Circassian movement, offering it problems not connected with the protests against the Olympiad. In the last September a group of Circassian public men from KBR acted with a memorandum calling the fellow tribesmen to struggle for inclusion in the program of the Olympic Games of "Circassian ethno-cultural component”. They meant creation in Sochi of an Adygeyan ethnographic village, naming some Olympic objects with Circassian ethonyms, reflection of Adygeyan national motives in the Olympic symbolics.

We should not be afraid of returning to the country the pro-Russia adjusted, hard-working, kept the native language and customs our fellow tribesmen”, Kanokov emphasized.

So, the total quantity of Abkhazes in Syria makes more than 10 000 people. The place of their residing - 99 percent live in Damascus. For today about 200-300 persons were ready to move to Abkhazia. The situation in the country is very upsetting and unstable. There are no open war operations meanwhile, but opposition accrues. Practically every day in the various cities skirmishes with police and militarians take place. A civil war can blow out at any moment. The process of the events will develop most likely according to ‘the Libyan script’. The situation inside our Adygeyan (not only Abkhazian) Diaspora is uneasy, too. There is no unity in questions whom Adygs should support - authorities or protesting persons. As it is so in case of development of an open conflict in the ‘hot phase’ (civil war), our compatriots will be beaten both by those and the others. Now I got contacts of people which are considered as influential among Abkhazes so I will try to communicate with them. It is a question not only about the well-known official leaders, such, for example, as Sharah Abaza, but also the others which have authority among people. Sources of the information allow me not open. Regularly we have consultations with the president of the World Congress of Abkhazo-Abasin people Taras Mironovich Shamba on the specified questions. We still confirm our readiness to leave Syria in case of adoption of such decision by the leadership of Abkhazia.
