Chechen President Kadrov took various opportunities to express his loyalty to Putin. He claimed to be Putin's infantry and called Putin the greatest president. He could lead the Russian Federation out of the darkness and to glory, and he was not disconnected in actual actions. During this Russian-Ukrainian conflict, Chechen troops could be said to have been dispatched in full swing.
Overyone may be curious, why are there Chechen troops besides the Russian army? This cannot be speculated by common sense. In short, Kadyrov surrendered with a gun. Nominally appointed by Putin, but in fact he joined the franchise relationship. Some Mongolian leaders similar to Qing . In this way, you may be easier to understand. Russia only nominally unified Chechnya. Putin needed this only. To help him re-election, he really wanted to break up. Putin's huge prestige accumulated by pacifying Chechnya will surely disappear.
1, The main body of the Chechen troops is Kadyrov's direct guard, with about 8,000 people, divided into 4 battalions, and there are about 2,000 special forces, as well as some incorporated troops and a large number of reserves. Chechnya once had independence, but was crippled by Putin, and Kadyrov also surrendered to the Russian Federation. However, the independent forces in Chechnya were still there, and Russia's armed forces were beyond the reach, so Putin allowed Chechnya to retain a certain size of the army. Putin does not want to reduce the vassal states, but the conditions do not allow it. Once Putin steps down and the next Russian president cannot suppress Kadyrov, what will happen? If Russians think so, wouldn’t Putin be able to re-election again be stable?
2. Kadyrov did a very clever job in this regard. On the one hand, he praised Russian President Putin, and on the other hand, he excluded Russia through religious means. Before Kadyrov officially took office as President of Chechnya, he flew to Saudi , and then went to Mecca , Medina and Jeddah to pilgrimage to Muslim holy places. Before leaving, Kadyrov announced that he was a devout Islamist, ready to pray to Allah for peace, tranquility and prosperity for the people of Chechen and all Russian people. Kadyrov's move was to strengthen his rule in Chechnya, but it was not conducive to the rule of the Russian Federation. Because Russia's state religion is Orthodox. Islam has a certain degree of exclusivity. Non-Islamists are regarded as pagans. There were originally a part of Russian in Chechnya who believed in Orthodox religion. With the prevalence of Islam, Russians who believed in Orthodox religion became aliens and it was difficult to survive. They had to leave Chechnya. There were very few Russians who still stayed in Chechnya.
3, Kadrov vigorously promotes polygamy in Chechnya, and a man can marry up to four wives. In ancient China, there were wars and chaos, but the population was able to recover quickly, and an important reason was polygamy. After Kadyrov implemented polygamy, the population of Chechen grew rapidly, with the current population approaching 1.4 million, an increase of nearly 400,000 compared to 1999, which is very rare in the case of negative overall population growth in Russia. Chechen Republic Similar to China's feudal dynasty, wealth is concentrated in the hands of a few people. Polygamy can buy the hearts of these people, so that these people have a place to spend money. These people are loyal fans of Kadyrov. For those who have no money, it is difficult to get married, let alone polygamy. Kadrov has two wives, five sons and three daughters.
4. In order to enable Chechnya to develop its economy, the Russian Federation has arranged a fiscal budget of 375 billion rubles for Chechnya every year, equivalent to 30 billion RMB. Putin did not interfere with what this money was doing. Just imagine that under Kadyrov's autocratic rule, this money would definitely be intercepted. Putin's strong allocation of funds has caused dissatisfaction among other republics. If Chechnya is no longer allocated a large amount of funds, no one knows what will happen. However, it is not easy for Kadyrov to achieve independence, because Chechnya is too small, with only 17,000 square kilometers of land, a population of about 1.4 million, and an army of more than 10,000 people. Chechnya has abundant natural resources and a certain amount of industry, but these depend on the market of the Russian Federation.
5. Kadyrov preserves his strength in order to do great things in the future and strive for greater interests. And most importantly, when Kazakh's Chechen troops lost their combat effectiveness, it was actually when his own life came to an end. Not to mention anything else, Kazakh killed several Chechen leaders and many people were thinking about taking revenge! Therefore, Chechen elites have suffered losses, so Xiaoka is not in a hurry who is in a hurry. As a result, the Russian military Guards ran away, without any communication and coordination, and directly threw the Chechen Special Operations Group back as cannon fodder. Kadyrov must be furious and was going to Khaku Palace to file a lawsuit. The Chechen troops were also called artillery by the Russian army because they were basically only 20 kilometers behind the front line. But this time the Chechen Special Operations Team had already been deployed from behind. Unexpectedly, the guards in front ran too fast and suddenly became the front line, and the one who was still the cover.
6. After Putin personally issued a mobilization order to recruit 300,000 reserve personnel, Kadyrov came forward to emphasize that the Chechen people were not within the scope of this recruitment. Kadyrov Jr. said at an important meeting that the reservist recruitment carried out by the Russian Federal Government will not be carried out within the territory of the Chechen Republic. He explained that since the start of the Ukrainian War, more than 20,000 Chechen citizens have gone to Ukraine to participate in the war, and Chechen has sent more troops than the number that should be conscripted. Another thing about is that although after saying that Chechnya would not participate in the mobilization, Kadyrov still said that if Putin needed it, Chechnya could also send thousands of volunteers to the war.
In short, Chechen vs. Russia is like an ant vs. elephant, and there is no chance of winning at all. Moreover, Chechen , which has worked hard for independence, has learned from the past and dare not make mistakes easily.
