Thus, Kadyrov regularly makes bold statements against Ukraine and Western states. The Kremlin uses this to discredit indigenous peoples. Channel 24 was told by political scientist Mikhail Besarab.
“By bringing to the fore representatives of indigenous peoples and their cruelty in the performance of certain obedient representatives, Moscow discredits them in the eyes of the Ukrainian, world community and minimizes the possibility of supporting the national liberation movements of these countries,” the political scientist explained.
Putin's most painful spot
As Besarab noted, the role of the Chechens is very important for Putin. “In the perception of Ukrainians and Western partners, Moscow wants to make them almost the main actors in the attack on Ukraine, stain them with blood, show the biggest atrocities,” he said.
Putin needs to demonstrate that the Chechens are the most daring killers. Thus, he deliberately discredits the Chechen people.
Chechnya is the most painful place for Putin on the map of Russia. This is the region that will be the first to start its national liberation struggle, Bessarab is convinced.
Therefore, the more Russia becomes weaker, the higher the likelihood of an uprising in the Caucasus under the leadership of the Chechen people. role. In fact, he is not so inadequate and stupid.
“Kadyrov is absolutely dependent on the Kremlin regime. The Chechens are sure that as soon as Putin slips and falls somewhere, the Kadyrov regime will immediately crumble. After all, it rests on financial support from Russia, on the repressive machine of the FSB, on intimidation and terror that takes place in Ichkeria “- said Mikhail Besarab.
The fact that nothing has started in Chechnya yet does not mean that the Chechens support Kadyrov. They're just waiting for the right opportunity.
All the statements that he makes about Ukraine, NATO, Washington are sometimes very funny and funny, he makes at the direction of the Kremlin. We cannot rule out that Moscow propagandists are forcing him to make such caricatured statements deliberately in order to discredit him and the entire Chechen people. Besarab noted.
Russia is forced to flood Chechnya with money, because it is terribly afraid of it
It is known that the Kadyrov regime cost the Kremlin 300 billion rubles a year. The dating of Chechnya and other regions of Russia is strikingly different.
“This once again shows how much Moscow is afraid of Chechnya. In order to somehow keep the situation there in obedience, Russia is forced to flood Chechnya with money so that Kadyrov has at least some argument to support the authorities inside the country,” the political scientist said. .
At the same time, Russia has driven the Chechen people into social and economic difficulties. This is one of the least economically developed regions of Russia, where one of the richest local elites in Russia lives.
The Chechen people are waiting
Bessarab stressed that hundreds of thousands of Chechens live abroad. These are mainly people who were forced to leave Ichkeria, they or their relatives participated in two Russian-Chechen wars, many of them today are fighting on the side of Ukraine against the Russian army.
“Chechens all over the world and on territories of Chechnya are preparing for a new stage of the national liberation struggle. It sounds publicly, they do not hide their intentions. And then it’s just about the matter. This is a question, if not in the coming months, but in the coming years for sure, “the political scientist concluded.
