President Dmitry Medvedev said Saturday's clash between the police and some 5,000 ultranationalists and football hooligans threatened the stability of the entire state. "What are especially dangerous are actions that are directed at fomenting enmity and hatred based on racial, ethnic or religious grounds," Medvedev said in televised remarks. "These actions threaten the stability of the state," he said, vowing to bring all those responsible to justice. Saturday's violence sent more than a dozen people to hospital and degenerated into a tension-fraught weekend that saw sporadic reports of violence throughout the Russian capital. Reports said one Central Asian man was mobbed and killed by a gang of more than 15 youths on Sunday evening while Nazi chants were heard at various Moscow metro stations on Saturday night. As tensions continued on Monday, hundreds of anti-riot police closed off Red Square and another square in front of the Kremlim amid fears of a repeat of a violent protest by far-right football fans. Media and rights advocates both warned that the ugly scenes of hooded youth chanting "Russia for Russians" exposed a racist malaise at the heart of Russian society just a week after it was awarded the right to host the 2018 World Cup. "This is a civil war in an ethnic context," the opposition Novaya Gazeta said on its front page. The Novye Izvestia daily wrote in a headline: "Nazism under the Kremlin's wall." The initial tension was sparked by the death of Yegor Sviridov -- a Spartak Moscow fan who was shot in the head December 4 during a fight with men from the Russia's predominantly Muslim North Caucasus. The link between the extreme right and football fans -- some of whom model themselves on British hooligans and call themselves "firms" -- will be watched closely by the authorities as Russia prepares to host the 2018 World Cup. Media reports said Sviridov was an active participant in one of Moscow's most aggressive fan groups known as The Union. Nationalist sentiments have in fact been running high for much of the past decade as Russia struggles to deal with lawlessness in a poverty-wracked Caucasus region where militants clash daily with the police. Some analysts tie the initial rise of xenophobia to the first presidency of Vladimir Putin and his vows to wipe out the Islamist guerrillas in their "outhouse". But others caution against drawing a direct link to Putin and focus instead on the anti-immigration policies adopted by various administrations on a more local scale. "The state clearly does not support the slogans that the people shouted on Manezh," said SOVA human rights centre director Alexander Verkhovsky. "But if you tie this to the state's policy on migrants and basic rights as a whole, then yes, there is a link." One of Russia's largest nationalist movements this weekend issued an email to supporters speaking of an "undeclared war" against migrants from Russia's south. "Russians have stopped being the owners of their own country," the Movement Against Illegal Immigration (DPNI) said in the message. But some in the Moscow media questioned whether the country's police force was up to the challenge being posed by the far right. "The unprofessionalism and corruptness of the law enforcement authorities are one of the main reasons behind what happened," the Vedomosti business daily wrote in a front-page editorial.
