-::'''Information''': Advancing public awareness of the Chechen war, including its broader implications for democracy, human rights, and regional stability in both Russia and the former Soviet Union; and
-::'''Diplomacy''': Convening private "Track II" talks between representatives of the Russian government and Chechen resistance aimed at developing a framework for ending the war and resolving Chechnya's long-term legal and political status.
+::What's striking about ACPC is that U.S. militarists and neocon strategists are supporting an insurgent movement that is not only nationalist but also largely Islamist.

 :To those ends, ACPC organizes educational programs for the public, develops policy recommendations for lawmakers and collaborates with an international network of more than 400 activists, journalists, scholars and non-governmental organizations. The Committee distributes [[Chechnya Today]], a daily email news service, and [[Chechnya Weekly]], an online news magazine produced by the [[Jamestown Foundation]] and edited by former [[Keston Institute]] President Lawrence A. Uzzell.
-:In keeping with its mandate to be an independent resource for the public and a good-faith arbiter for the warring parties, the committee does not accept financial assistance from the governments of Chechnya or Russia, or from private for-profit corporation with investments in the former Soviet Union.
