“Inhumanity” RT President called the hostage taking in the North Osetia town of Beslan.
“All these tragic accidents – explosions of the airplanes, events in Moscow, and this one which occurred on the Day of Knowledge, a national holiday, - are inhumanity. Whatever pressing the problems are, they must not be tackled at the cost of children’s lives. I hope that children’s lives will be saved. I hope greatly”, the RT President said.
