We will discuss questions connected with future regulation in Chechnya.

We urgently need a cease-fire, otherwise there will be a bloodbath...because there will be major fighting. Grozny will not fall easily.

I have decided that the force shall be withdrawn.

We need an independent investigation.

Everyone knows that interest rates will rise but the question is how fast and by how much. I see the market coming under pressure today.

I expect stocks to fall. Fears of more rate hikes will take hold and some of the confidence we've seen will fade.
