I live in Switzerland and I work with a chechnyan young man. I can only say he is incredibly respectful and humble, always ready to help, and i have never heard him talking bad about anyone or anything. He is the best in my team. I have a massive respect for chechnyas. I don't share their costume and traditions, but I do certainly respect them.
masya Allah
Ma sha Allah
Who cares what a Swiss thinks?!🤣 You're all gay!!!!!

I work as a Doctor in Germany in Munich
This year a new doctor that finished residency starting working with us.
i was surprised to know he was chechen i was not expecting him to be so good in speaking German and he is very good doctor and the he is very friendly and hard working
now am in a rabbit hole of chechnya videos to get to know these people and not to judge the books by the covers
Du bist ein guter Kollege dass du dich für seine Kultur und Herkunft so sehr interessierst. Sieht man nicht oft)
I love Chechen people. I met a family who bought the house next to us in Ohio, USA. They will literally gift you anything in their home. They have the best furniture and clothes and traditions and food. They are the nicest people and that worries me because here in America ppl take advantage of generous people. The man owns his own construction company and has so many kids and is so humble.

this movie propaganda
Все эти преступления были спланированы спецслужбами россии, для дискридитации независимого чеченского государства, чтобы подготовить весь мир для повторного вторжения и оправдания своих преступных действий.
@@zigfridkurama4394 Перед 2-й чеченской войной было вторжение в Дагестан. Простой народ Дагестана встал на защиту своей родной земли от бандитов (именно, что от бандитов, включая эмиссара Хаттаба (не чеченца), а не от простых чеченцев, страдавших от нищеты и разрухи в Ичкерии). Федеральные войска пришли на помощь дагестанцам и восстановили порядок. А дальнейшие события известны.
@@maksimplaksin3889 О каком вторжении идет речь? Российские власти специально позволии на територии нескольких дагестанских сел создать исламистский анклав с шариатским правлением, разрекламировав его в СМИ. Ловушка была так устроена, что не попасть туда было невозможно. Чеченцы повелись на обман прекрасно осознавая последствия, поступили так как им велит их совесть и честь, откликнувшись на зов о помощи соседей, "братьев мусульиан", чьи села были подвергнуты наподению собственной армией. Власти России, вдруг, "поздно спахватившись", решили устроить маленькую войнушку на своей територии, а по сути правокацию: подлость, как известно, не знает границ! Благородный поступок чеченцев послужил поводом для повторного вторжения на ее територию российских бандформирований. Прежде чем писать глупости изучите факты, а они как известно, вешь упрямаяя!
@@zigfridkurama4394 Если кто и позволил специально возникнуть тому исламистскому анклаву в дагестанских сёлах Карамахи и Чабанмахи, то это те предательские силы в окружении Ельцина, которые по звонку остановили штурм Грозного летом 1996 года, и с подачи которых были заключены Хасавюртовские соглашения. Опять же, те сёла находятся достаточно далеко от чеченской границы, но первыми приняли на себя удар приграничные районы Дагестана. Их жители и пошли в ополчение, и совместно с федеральными войсками дали отпор.

I have taught English to many Chechens and have always noticed a humble attitude on the way they perceive the world and other cultures. Love and peace to all the good humans around the globe.
The only connection I knew was Chechnian war, ridiculously!
While the practices seem sharply at odds with the freedoms I am familiar; the underlying principles in this society are a curious mix that would normally be seen in a closed community, like the Amish, Mormons, or even some extreme fundamentalist Jewish sectors. There feels little if any covetousness, of more liberal societies. In Chechnia, people live alongside other communities, it would appear, whilst sheltering their own. There is a deep honesty revealed here, though it goes so far, as to raise concerns about what exactly happens, when marital difficulties, do arise?
Nonetheless, beautiful!
I read a Chechen knows how to shoot a gun before he can read.

@janetgeragosian7759 can you please tell us what is so beautiful about your modern western culture instead?
you don't respect your parents, you don't respect your elders, women are nothing but sexual objects, men are not even men, everyone cares about themselves only and their own pleasures, your god is money, your goal is status, everyone is fake! just copies of different movies and TV characters you're trying so hard to imitate in real life, and you are willing to give your arms and legs to convince people that you're real!! you care only about what people think of you, and not what you are in reality! everyone have got their mouth open like a hyena trying to consume as much as possible from the cradle to the grave! (after all this is what life is all about for you) don't forget your motto (you only live once)!!!
crimes, drugs, alcohol, and prostitution are everywhere! your societies are full of psychopaths, serial killers, pedophiles, gangs, junkies!
so again can you please tell us what is sooooooooo beautiful about your modern western culture?!!!!
I bet it's the fact that you as a woman can drink alcohol, take drugs, and sleep with as many people as you want! I bet it makes you feel FREE!
well if that is the case then let me tell you that we (preservative people) are very proud to not have that kind of freedom!🙂
@@janetgeragosian7759 those blue eyes are crazy
@@janetgeragosian7759 are you jealous?)
The reason that the bride's relatives aren't at the wedding actually stems from the old tradition where the groom's family would come pick up the bride at her home and bring her to their home. From that day on she 'belongs' to the family of her husband. And the bride's family would be sad that she left, which is why they weren't in a celebratory mood, since they 'lost' a daughter. So they would stay home and cry. Whereas the groom's family would be very happy because they just got their 'new daughter'. So they would throw a party and celebrate.
I heard it's also like that with most of the muslims in Africa.
Same traditions in some Arabic countries ^_^
Thank you for explaining the tradition.
There is always a sensible reason behind them.
This is similar to my culture Indian (Hindu). The brides family do come to the wedding however but they are upset to be loosing her and there are a lot of tears of sadness!
I think this aspect of their tradition is ridiculous. Why does anyone have to 'lose' a daughter? I'm all for traditions and cultural norms, but not when people are hurt or insulted.
lived with Chechens here in Malaysia for more then 5 years.. very manly, true gentlemen and respectful! been 20 years since all of my brothers went back to Chechnya.. miss them alot.. Khamzat, Ramzan, Murad, Ahmet, Yusuf, Ovhan, Tomas and many more 😢...

Thank you so much for the video! I am a Jordanian with a Chechen grandmother who moved to Jordan during the war. She used to cook traditional Chechen dishes for me when I was a child, but that was the extent of my exposure to her culture. I've always wanted to learn more about my Chechen ancestry and this video is excellent.

l agree. Cable TV is a waste of money.
@@ElifromRussia
Eli you were very kind at the start of the video when asking the gentleman if these questions you found in the tour book were accurate. As a female you had to be biting your tongue when 50% of the population is still subjugated like modern slaves. The women cannot speak up as they would be ostracized or killed if they speak against their state imposed religion. This is NOT tradition it is modern slavery in a different form. So strange as Islam was once a great religion 800-1200 a.d. and dominated science as Christian Europe burned non-believers at the stake. In 1250 a.d. when Islam started killing scientists and burning books (like Christianity did earlier) and turned inward to their religion they have been on a downward path for over 700 years. Name one thing Islam has given the world in the last 700 years and i will sit here and listen...i feel so sorry for the women and sure the men are very happy.
Entire world is beautiful than democratic world.
@@wildbill9919 so very true! That's why over 5 million people have left pay per view t.v. in the last 4 year's. They brag about hundreds of channel's; most of which aren't worth a crap. Then you have to watch your bill like a hawk so they don't sneak a bunch of bullshit fee's in. I got rid of them year's ago & have air antenna. Haven't missed them & get plenty of channel's over the air. Plus I watch Eli!!! Illinois, USA
@@davidcooley275 Totally agree! Somewhat similar to the Old Order Amish here in America; in that they have a handed down set of belief's from the 1600's. Watch some of the documentaries from many of the Amish who have left the faith; they are truly eye-opening.
What a beautiful wonderful world we live in! A portrait of individualism and color. God bless the people of Chechnya!

Hello Eli, This is Johnny from New Orleans USA and new to your channel. I didn't know much about the Chechen people or their culture until now. By appearance, they seems to be decent and respectable people like everyone else. I've nothing but admire and respect other nationality, language, cultures, foods, music and life styles. By Far, you're doing great job and let the world to see what ordinary Chechen people like. Thank you and I truly admire your work and be safe of doing so.
👍👍
I am a Chechen, most Chechens are not like the Kadyrovites show us, they are bandits who keep the Chechens in oppression, we are constantly kidnapped and killed, all this with the permission of Putin
I’m in New Orleans also
Almost all people of the world are decent and respectable. It's just a small bunch of people at the top who use these very decent people to fight against each other and give them bad name. I once visited a country which is an archenemy for us. I was afraid of their army/police or violent reaction from public, but was taken aback by common people's hospitality. Learned that we all are pitched against each other for stupid political reasons (sometimes religious reasons in case of few islamic nations).

I wonder how different Chechen culture is compared to "old Russian" culture? Some of the customs seem very unique to Chechen people.
I think I know why the guests are separated during a wedding
It's kind of like spending your last days with your friends (groom)
And your last time of living together with your family (bride)
Chechen culture is completely different from Russian, Russians are Slavonic people, Chechens are one of the Caucasian nations
Very different they always been different
@@fabs8498 is that teacher was allowed to mock or even criticise french flag or LGBTQ or Israel or Zionism in that very country?
If not then why was there a double standard?

@@iconoclast400 Well said. People forget what a chauvinist, racist country France is. Liberals are, in their version of the "free" press, able to mock the followers of Islam, but if Charlie Hebdo's editors had made analogous remarks about Judaism, they would be subject to swift institutional reprisals.
I would like to add that as a pacifist l reject violence absolutely, in all its forms, including speech that incites violence and armed aggression. Violence begets violence.
Glad to see the Chechen Republic and it's people thriving after the troubled times it endured.

@@SiberiaKim Дисклеймер: очень вас прошу, не отвечайте мне своими «НО» и прочим, я свою историю знаю и наш спор ни к чему не приведёт, я не люблю бессмысленные топтания на одном месте. Во первых, я не задавала никаких вопросов, поэтому с «потому что» ответ на мой комментарий было начинать странно, я не спрашивала «почему». Во вторых, ещё как уничтожались и как раз на примере ингушей и чеченцев это можно проследить, и в плане культуры, и в плане народа (отсылка к ссср’овской депортации, в тот период уничтожались книги с упоминаниями народа, раскрадывались национальные украшения из домов переселенцев, пришли в упадок такие национальные ремесла как войлочное ковроделие и золотная вышивка, и тд, а также отсылка к чеченским войнам в период которых было уничтожено и утеряно невероятное множество исторических предметов представляющих культурную ценность для ингушей и чеченцев из Грозненского музея, например, в музее хранилось несколько экземпляров традиционного ингушского женского головного убора - курхарс, и те события пережил только один из них, до недавнего времени он был единственным сохранившимся до наших дней экземпляром, были утеряны работы народного творчества, например в музее хранились различные настенные украшения и войлочные ковры работы Хази Ведзижевой, сейчас их у нас увы нет, а также было уничтожено много картин местных художников, например у чеченского художника Шамиля Шамурзаева «погибло» более 500 его картин, что тоже является частью культурного наследия), ну и в третьих, народы тоже ещё как уничтожались, посмотрите на численность малых народов Сибири и почитайте их историю, или историю черкесов и их геноцида во времена кавказской войны, или же почитайте об их племенах, которые из-за тех событий были полностью уничтожены, + многочисленные ссср’овские депортации разных народов, от корейцев до крымских татар. Надеюсь, я всё понятно разъяснила, дальше дело остаётся за вами, всё описанное мной не взято из головы, можете почитать подробнее в интернете.
@@kkk-rx6xh вы удивитесь, но части культурного наследи уничтожались у всех народов, а уж сколько музеев погорело на планете, да и чеченцы воевали с соседями. Не надо обычное явление выставлять как уничтожение нации. Если на американском континенте уничтожалась культура, там и не осталось ни языков, ни письменности, и население метисировано до неузнаваемости. Это реальный пример. Так можно и про уничтожение германского наследия рассказать, фактов больше будет.

It is not surprising that the Chechens don't feel Russian, because they are part of Russia only due to history, they have nothing to do with Russia by culture, traditions, and even religion.
I'm interested in the Caucasus in general, I like traditional Chechen music and dances, I really thank you for this travel to Chechnya, very interesting and inspirational.
Russians massacred a lot of Chechen civilians during the wars.
@@AsiaMinor12 unfortunately the victims of wars are always the silent majority who asked nothing from nobody.
....If you only knew how much the Russians would love to get rid of them...
@@derkov That is your 'opinion'. Something I know is that Putin certainly not. A matter of fighting Islamists.
You made this comment to be hateful. You provocator
I know this is an older piece and you get thousands of comments. So I’m not sure you will ever see this one. But the way you closed this piece about respecting differences deeply moved me, from the heart.
Chechnia is a very beautiful and clean place and I love the chechnian tradition.🌺.Thankyou very much to you Eli Sahiba.🌹🌹
Beautiful people and tradition from Chechnya ... thanks for the video .. !
Kusuma
watch Christian Prince Debates or Arabian Prophet
They Handsome men blond blue eyes
Wow. They are lovely people and a well respected code of honour
Honour???! Subjecting women to medieval era skewed and derogatory principles is neither honourable nor worthy to be admired ffs
Fuck any religion which intends to limit my views
SO interesting! Great video! Good job!
Interesting & awesome v-log. Keep it up.
Chechnya is a beautiful and clean place. I love traditions. 🌺
thank you
Thanks
All traditions are indeed beautiful and wonderful, when you can walk away from them
Waoo, beautiful people, beautiful culture, beautiful religion and beautiful traditions. Im a muslim from Pakistan. As Eli said that it maybe hard for you to understand Chechens, but as a Muslim it isn’t hard for me to understand their customs, traditions and culture. These things are in our religion and these people are following religion at its best. A lot of love and respect to my Chechens brothers and sisters from Pakistan 🇵🇰
This culture is found in whole of South Asia.
Some of the traditions here must be from Chechnya only. Or do you not have the girl's family at the wedding too? They celebrate at different times with girl's family and after.the wedding. Is that the same in India and Pakistan too?
@@Rachidasister
Correct, I believe he was making a connection.for some of the tenets which among Muslim nations tends to be similar such as respect for elders, humbleness, honor and few to none public display of affection.
But surely it cannot be all the same as Chechnya has its own cultural norms and evolutionary branch that obviously differs from South Asia in some aspect.
Neighboring countries can share norms sure, like the Arabian peninsula or East Asia, but over wide gaps with several many nations in between, not so much.
@Chappy Freeman hello, since it’s a Muslim country do you know how the single meet Chechenya? Is it through arranged marriages or dates
Спасибо брат,у нас в Чечне религия ислам на первом месте,потом уже традиции,и все обычае что противоречило исламу убрано давно
Beautiful. Keep iit up exploring other cultures.
I love this video. I learned so much. Thankyou.
This was totally amazing, I didnt know much about the chechens so it was nice to learn about them! Love from 🇵🇰
Well you'd love them for sure. They too follow Arab culture just like your people haha.
@@turkishissunlanguage Practising Islam requires Muslims to follow Arab culture. But not all Muslims follow Islam strictly and hence some deviations are observed.
@@Kleyana please, don’t embarrass yourself more ✋🏼
I was watching the weddings BECAUSE of the dancing. The way the women move are so interesting. The traditional dance the women seem to float across the floor while slowly moving their hands. Coolest thing ever.
This video is absolutely fantastic
Unusual courting practices, but who are we to judges. It works for them. Thanks Eli. 👍🙏❤️👏
Excellent video. May God bless and protect Chechen people.
WHITE MIDDLE EASTERNERS
Lol jelly bean. They are Europeans not middle easterns. Middle easterns are black, tanned, and white and they live in Asia. Try educating yourself
Thank you for your kind words. ❤️
great work. Many people misunderstood people from chechnya. You are right, the culture is not bad it is different and every culture should be respected. One can get along nicely by respecting their norms and values.
You're amazing, Eli. Beautiful, brave, intelligent and kind.
wonderful video, I enjoy so much, I learn so much, thank You
As someone who comes from Chechnya, I was kinda surprised to see your video, because you don't often see tourists visiting Chechnya and also making a hole video about it. So I'm really grateful to have found your video💕💕
I came across your channel by accident and I can't stop watching!! Professionally crafted and very informative, you are extremely talented. I have been to St. Petersburg and have several Russian friends here in the USA. We only learn about Russia in our USA schools, but I know of the great sacrifices and triumphs Russia had made in Asia and Europe. I hate what is happening now and hope the beautiful people of Russia do not suffer a long-term worldwide stigma for this war.
they decimated Muslim populations and so where the great triumphs?
why should they? all I know there is no stigma against american "interventions".
just india and china together are close to half of the world population. africa is another huge part. do you know what those places have in common? they care about the war in ukraine as much as people of western countries care about the humanitarian crisis in yemen. it's foolish to believe news stations and politicians of western countries speak for the world, they don't even speak for the people of the countries they are from.
I'm from the west, there is no stigma nor hate towards russians from my side. they got fucked up by their fucked up government like me. I can't do shit against it nor can they. why in the world would I stigmatize a normal human being just because he was born at a certain place which also gave birth to some corrupt politicians. for all I know they get born everywhere. show me a country without them and I'm moving there asap
what in the hell? This is about CHECHNYA not RUSSIA. hope you know the russians have mass murdered us chechens so dont even mention them.
What sacrifices and triumphs are you talking about? Is occupation of another county and murder of those people a triumph to you? Do you know what russians did to Chechens during the war? Russia stole their country from them, stole their home and murdered/deported many. Chechen people should be free from russian terrorists.
russia only brings death and terror everywhere it goes. And all russians are complicit in it
Why is it russians who are suffering from what is happening now? THEY have started yet another bloody war, now in Ukraine, to occupy my country. I hope every russian at some point will experience everything they do to us and to many other nations.
Good ,keep it up we are get best knowledge from.God Bless you
Awesome videos and I love the culture 🇿🇦
I really liked Chechnya. It's a beautiful place . Hope to visit there some day
Fascinating! Even though we might not personally care for the old-fashioned ways I think their tradition is pretty special, so long as everyone is happy. She was a gorgeous bride!
Interesting video thank you for the content 🎉
GREETINGS FROM LEBANON!!!!ITHANK YOU FOR SHARING !!!!🌹🌹🌹🌹🌲🥀
I love it that the young are so keen on keeping their traditions alive... we have a lot to learn from them, including respect for our elders.
Thank you so much for this beautiful insight Eli.
Greetings from Cornwall, England.
Women in their place. That is what men dream of. Doesn't look like anybody has choice but to follow the rules.
@@sabinereynaudsf I noticed that too. Not necessarily in a bad way. Just being careful not to lean on that too much or too often considering the current events and all😂
That is not respect. Only because someone had the priviledge to grow old it does not make them a good person. Why respect only because of age?
@@l.burcea2165 aww..i feel sorry for your parents though
@@ibrahimuzair08 Nah don't worry Ibrahim. They are from Europe not Western Asia / Middle East. They have reasons to be respected not only because of their age.
Большое спасибо за интересные интервью с факты о чеченка. Многие приветы из Германии ❤️🍀👍! Vielen Dank!
During the monstrous wars, Germany and France hosted a large number of Chechens. We are noble for that. You have beautiful countries where many wonderful and kind people live.
Ма ша Аллах, now I want to visit Chechen republic, a very good travel video
Sehr interessanter Beitrag! Danke!
That's the same culture we practices...but female nd male party is at different places.. As a Pashton/Afghan in KPK 🇵🇰... Many love to Chechnya

Thank you for showing us this part of the world, Eli. So brave of you to go there! Life can certainly be different in different countries. The people in the Chechen Republic seem to be very happy with their culture. They certainly have some beautiful buildings and nice clothing and attractive men and women. Do you happen to know anyone who chose to leave this culture because they did not agree with it? That was so kind of you to point out that this culture is not bad but rather simply different, and that they have a code of honor which I think could benefit other cultures. By the way, Eli, you looked very cute in that pink hijab and dress. I was hoping you could show us the entire outfit.
It never happened that they left their culture because they disagreed with it, but many left because of the war in the 90s and for political reasons. Chechens are very proud people and they preserve their traditions even outside their homeland.
@@caucasianwolf8072 Why was there a war?
@@Name-jw4sj The result of the collapse of the USSR.
Why should one be brave to go there? Chechnya is the most safe region of Russia nowadays. People are very welcoming. As far as there are no borders between regions in Russia, every Chechen is free to live in any other part of Russia, so not surprisingly many Chechen people live outside Chechnya. Some of them inevitably become more assimilated in other regions mindset. But in common Chechens are proud of their culture and they have strong family bonds. They do not need a crazy American sort of democracy. They do not accept pervert values, and i guess they never will. I'm not sure if it is safe for perverts traveling there. No one would be surprised if that pervert silently disappears. If you don't like it - it's your problems. It's their culture, it is their land, it is their rules. And as long as Chechnya is a part of Russia - it's nuclearly defended from any sort of western 'democratization' like it was in Libya, Syria, Afganistan, Iraq etc.
@@TheRussificator local driving manners for instance
Great and proud to chechen, keep your honor and be proud to your traditions and salam from Aceh - Indonesia.
