Chechen President Alu Alkhanov thinks that the Council of Europe\'s general attitude to Chechnya is positive. \"I have an impression that they do not apply double standards. I also have an impression that the Council of Europe truly wants to help in solving our problems,\" he told a Thursday press conference at the Interfax main office. \"The Council of Europe feels positive about the settlement efforts of the federal authorities and the Chechen administration,\" he said. \"They did not even ask me questions about the former Ichkeria administration at the Strasbourg meeting, so I decided that things had changed for the better in the issue of Chechnya,\" he said.
