No criticism by Western leaders of gassing of hostages by Russians.

From The Times 28.10.02

'No Western leader has criticized the Russian tactics for ending the siege, and many, including Tony Blair and George W. Bush, have been in touch with Mr Putin offering their condolences and support for his war on terrorism. Mr Bush blamed the terrorists for the loss of life...
'Jacques Chirac...also voiced "solidarity" with Mr Putin's stance of refusing to give in to the hostage-takers' demand that Russia withdraw from Chechnya. ...'
