He commented on a Monday interview by Chechen separatist leader Aslan Maskhadov. \"The present-day situation in the Chechen Republic is very much different from what it was in 2000 or even 2002. The republic and its people have chosen the way of peaceful development. Power bodies have been formed, and illegal armed units are simply unable to dictate their will on the republican or national administrations and influence the situation in Chechnya,\" Jabrailov said.
