'''Ruslan Sultanovich Aushev''' ([[Russian language|Russian]]: Русла́н Султа́нович А́ушев; born 29 October 1954 in [[Volodarskoye, Kazakhstan|Volodarskoye]], [[Kazakhstan]]) was the president of [[Ingushetia]] from March 1993 to December 2001. He was reportedly the youngest officer in the [[Soviet army]] to reach the rank of [[lieutenant general]].<ref>[https://books.google.com/books?id=M9iwFmvKTwcC&printsec=frontcover&dq=intitle:Dust+intitle:Empire&as_brr=0&sig=9cc8RYIAB9sYGzqTNrakcdJ_y5Y#PPA168,M1 Books.google.com]</ref> He received the [[Gold Star]] of the [[Hero of the Soviet Union]] on 7 May 1982. Aushev has emerged as [[Ingushetia]]'s most popular politician, having kept peace and stability during the Chechen war.

== Early life ==

He was selected as a cosmonaut on March 23, 1978, and retired on May 30, 1997. During his active career he had been Commander of [[Soyuz TM-3]], [[Soyuz TM-8]], [[Soyuz TM-14]] and [[Soyuz TM-20]]. He has spent a total of 489 days in space.<ref>http://www.spacefacts.de/bios/cosmonauts/english/viktorenko_aleksandr.htm Spacefacts</ref>
Aushev was born on 29 October 1954 to an [[Ingush people|Ingush]] family living in [[Kazakhstan]], who were deported from the [[Soviet Union]] in 1944. Very little is known about Aushev's early life.

==Honours and awards==
After three years at the [[Frunze Military Academy]], Aushev returned to the [[Soviet war in Afghanistan]] in charge of a combat [[regiment]] where he was wounded on 16 October 1986. Later he ascended to the [[USSR Supreme Soviet|Soviet parliament]] where he remained for two years while serving on the Military Affairs Committee. In November 1992 Aushev was appointed to lead the provisional administration in Ingushetia, a position he resigned two months later to run in the [[Ingushetian presidential election, 1993|Ingushetian presidential elections]]. Being the sole candidate, he won the presidency on 28 February 1993 with 99.99% of the vote,<ref>[http://www.nupi.no/cgi-win/Russland/personer.exe?546 Persons - NUPI<!-- Bot generated title -->] NUPI</ref> and he was re-elected two years later.
+
 
+
During the [[First Chechen War]] as many as 200,000 [[refugee]]s from [[Chechnya]] and neighboring [[North Ossetia]] strained Ingushetia's already weak economy and on several occasions, Aushev protested incursions by Russian soldiers, and even threatened to sue the Russian [[Ministry of Defence (Russia)|Ministry of Defence]] for damages inflicted. President Aushev said that his people could not forget how the same Russian armored columns "and the same Defense Minister" ([[Pavel Grachev]]) assisted in the destruction of Ingush settlements and the [[Population transfer|expulsion]] of Ingush population during the [[Ingush-Ossetian conflict|1992 ethnic conflict in North Ossetia]].<ref>[http://psi.ece.jhu.edu/~kaplan/IRUSS/ARCHIVE/2.94.html Archives] INFO RUSS</ref>
+
 
+
He resigned in December 2001 and on 23 May 2002, [[Murat Zyazikov]] was elected president of Ingushetia under controversial circumstances. Since then the republic has become more violent.
+
 
+
Then Aushev was elected to the [[Federation Council of Russia]], the [[upper house]] of the [[Federal Assembly (Russia)|Russian Parliament]] in December 1993, a position he resigned in April 2003. Aushev served as a [[negotiation|negotiator]] on the second day of the [[Beslan school hostage crisis]], convincing the hostage-takers to release 26 nursing women and their infants.
+
 
+
On 30 September 2008, Aushev commented, in his interview to [[Echo of Moscow]] [[Radio in Russia|radio station]], on the [[War in Ingushetia|increasingly tense situation]] in Ingushetia, accusing the current authorities of excessive use of force in the republic, leading to the radicalization of the society and threatening to plunge Ingushetia into civil war. The opposition news website [[Ingushetia.org]] reported that the Ingush president Murat Zyazikov ordered the republic’s television and radio broadcasting center to block Echo of Moscow’s signal for the duration of Aushev’s appearance.<ref>[http://www.theotherrussia.org/2008/09/30/ingushetia-descending-into-civil-war-aushev/ Ingushetia Descending into Civil War — Aushev].
