The Ingush Independence Committee or Committee of Ingush Independence (Ingush: Ğalğay Kortamuq̇alen Komitet, Russian: Комитет Ингушской Независимости, romanized: Komitet Ingushskoy Nezavisimosti) is an Ingush separatist organization founded on 7 January 2023 by Ingush diaspora in Turkey. HistoryThe committee was founded on 7 January 2023 in Istanbul by Ingush nationalists living in Turkey. The creation of the movement was supported by Oleksiy Goncharenko, a member of the Verkhovna Rada.[1] The movement participated in the Free Nations of Post-Russia Forum, which was held in the European parliament in January 2023.[2][better source needed] In May 2023, the government of Ingushetia started charging known members of the organization with supporting the Caucasus Emirate and justification of Nazism.[3] The armed wing of the movement, the Ingush Liberation Army, was created in April 2023.[4] In September 2023, the head of the Ingush Independence Committee, Ansar Garkho, held his first official meeting in the Crimean Tatar Mejlis with the head of the Mejlis Refat Chubarov and Mustafa Dzhemilev, the leader of the Crimean Tatar national movement.[5] On May 3, 2024, the Ministry of Justice of Russia added the Ingush Independence Committee to the list of undesirable organizations.[6] GoalsThe committee does not claim to be a political party and does not have a specific ideology, it seeks to unite all Ingush people who support an independent state.[4] The organization is against 2018 border changes and seeks to return the lost territories.[7] The committee is against unification with other countries and refused an offer from the Chechen government in exile which would unify the two states, if they become independent, into a North Caucasian Confederation.[8] References
