<p>Russian prime minister Vladimir Putin has vowed &#8220;retribution is inevitable&#8221; over the Moscow airport suicide bombing.</p>
<p>Mr Putin has built much of his reputation on harsh statements, but he did not go into detail on his plans.</p>
<p>No claims of responsibility have been made for Monday&#8217;s attack at Domodedovo Airport, which killed 35 and left 180 injured.</p>
<p>Suspicion has fallen on Islamist separatist insurgents from Chechnya or elsewhere in Russia&#8217;s troubled Caucasus region who have been battling Russian authority for over 15 years.</p>
<p>Chechen insurgents have claimed responsibility for an array of attacks in Moscow and elsewhere in Russia, including a double suicide bombing on the capital&#8217;s subway system in March 2010 that killed 40 people. They also have hit Domodedovo Airport before, with two suicide bombers slipping through its security in 2004 to kill 90 people.</p>
<p>Russian president Dmitry Medvedev described security at the airport as being in &#8220;a state of anarchy&#8221; and said management there must bear key responsibility for security failures. He also said government security officials would be held accountable for any lapses found.</p>
<p>Airport management objected, saying transport police were responsible for the inspection of people coming into the international arrivals area, where the bombing took place.</p>
<p>The finger-pointing could undermine confidence in Russia&#8217;s security ahead of Mr Medvedev&#8217;s high-profile appearance this week trying to attract investors at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. The attack also called into question Russia&#8217;s ability to safely host major international events like the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi and the 2018 World Cup.</p>
<p>Mr Putin rose to power largely on his tough-against-terror image, including a famous vow that Chechen rebels would be hunted down and killed &#8220;in the outhouse&#8221;.</p>
<p>But despite launching the second Russia-Chechnya war and pushing hard against suspected rebels, he was unable to wipe out the Chechen insurgency during his 2000-2008 presidency.</p>
