Shamil Basayev, the top military commander of the Chechen rebels has admitted in a televised interview that he is a terrorist and promised to make each Russian feel the impact of war in Chechnya, the Associated Press agency reports.

Basayev, linked to a dozen deadly attacks on civilians, said he was plotting more. “I’m making plans. We’re always looking for new ways,” he said on ABC News’ “Nightline”.

The Kremlin denounced the network’s decision to run the interview, which was conducted by well-known Russian journalist Andrei Babitsky.

The interview “runs counter to the spirit of Russian-American partnership in our joint fight against the global threat of terrorism,” said the Russian statement, also broadcast by “Nightline”.
