Zhirnov about Putin and Kadyrov / Getty Images The head of Chechnya, Ramzan Kadyrov, is provoking the further collapse of Russia. He actually runs a separate state. Former KGB and Russian Foreign Intelligence Service employee Sergei Zhirnov told Channel 24 about this, noting that the Russian authorities literally do not see this. They don’t act logically and pragmatically – they just have ideology in their minds. As Zhirnov emphasized, Chechnya has long been perceived as an independent state. If earlier Kadyrov was considered a vassal of Putin, now it’s the other way around. Chechnya has already de facto separated from Russia. It has long been an independent state. It has always been believed that Kadyrov is a vassal of Putin, and lately Putin has been a vassal of Kadyrov. The fact that the collapse of Russia had begun could be seen from the pogroms in Makhachkala. The authorities did nothing there,” Zhirnov said. Kadyrov created an Islamic caliphate in Chechnya and continues to milk Russia. Enormous funds from the federal budget are constantly being poured into the region. At the same time, Kadyrov’s son may beat up a Russian in a pre-trial detention center. And there will be no reaction from the authorities. And this gives rise to serious anger among local “patriots” like Igor Girkin or Alexander Dugin and his supporters. Chechnya actually separated from Russia
