Why would Chechnya "export" terrorism?
Sorry, seems you have not much clue. Chechnya is a nation that tries to separate from Russia.
During WW II the chechnic "terror attacks" would have been called "commando attacks", sure getting civilians as hostages in a theatre is a bit over the edge, but the germans, the spanish and the italian _REGULAR TROOPS_ did the exact same during WW II and the Spanish Revolution wars.
To answer your question: Chechnyans don't really have any reason to export terrorism -- but they DO have reason to sell munitions to those wanting to use them to overthrow western powers. And if Russia collapsed, you'd have a LOT of equipment looking for a new home. This is already a bit of an issue in Ukraine.
