The negative interpretation of the events of the past used as a pretext for tendentiously contemporary aggravation of interethnic relations. These problems need to restore ethics of scientific activity in the Caucasian studies discussed at the first three forums, in Caucasian historians in 2013–2015.
The historical roots of the relationship of the Eastern Slavs and the ancestors of the Chechens go to the 6th – 7th centuries BC, when establishing trade contacts and alliances between them, mediated by communication via the Khazar Khanate.
