The leader of Chechnya, Ramzan Kadyrov, has sharply criticized the military strategy of Russian President Vladimir Putin’s army, which appears to be increasingly isolated in a context in which the Ukrainian army is announcing significant gains in eastern Ukraine, where it has retaken several settlements from the Russians, including Izyum. , The Guardian reports, News.ro reports.

“They made mistakes, and I hope they will draw the necessary conclusions,” condemned Ramzan Kadyrov in his Telegram channel.

“If today and tomorrow the strategy does not change, I will be forced to talk with the leadership of the Ministry of Defense and the leadership of the country, to explain the real situation on the ground. This is a very interesting situation. Strange, I would say,” warns the Chechen leader.

However, Ramzan Kadyrov is a longtime ally of Vladimir Putin, who put him in charge of Chechnya.

Since the beginning of Putin’s “special operation”, the voices of official dissidents appear extremely rarely.

The Chechen leader, who brought in troops and personally went to Ukraine, is an exception and is one of the few examples of politicians who have not been completely silenced by the Kremlin.

In addition to this criticism of Kadyrov, Vladimir Putin was also targeted by various military bloggers on Monday.

While Putin’s army records sharp failures in Ukraine, the head of the Kremlin ceremoniously opens a street in the Russian capital on the occasion of Moscow Day.

Ramzan Kadyrov published a video on his Telegram channel in which State Duma deputy Adam Delimkhanov, accompanied by the Chechen military, announces that about 10,000 people will be operating in the “Kherson, Zaporizhzhia regions and the Donetsk People’s Republic”.

According to Kadyrov, Chechen troops returned to Ukraine after receiving permission.

The news about the return of Chechens to Ukraine appeared against the background of a successful counteroffensive by Ukrainian troops, which achieved great success in the Kharkiv region.

In early September, Ramzan Kadyrov released a video in which he said he had ruled Chechnya for too long and that it was time for him to “retire before he was kicked out” and that he wanted “indefinite vacation.”
