Kadyrov calls on Putin to order capture of Kiev and Kharkov

The military conflict in Ukraine has been dragging on while Russian soldiers die there, Ramzan Kadyrov says. The leader of Chechnya has urged Vladimir Putin to order the capture of large Ukrainian cities.

The “Caucasian Knot” has reported that on February 27, Ramzan Kadyrov criticized the Russian military leaders for the slow and ineffective combat actions in Ukraine and called on Vladimir Putin “to launch a large-scale operation in all directions and the territory of Ukraine.”

Tonight, Ramzan Kadyrov has requested Vladimir Putin to order the capture of Kharkov and Kiev. “Give an order to our fighters to capture Kharkov, Kiev, and all other cities, quickly, accurately, and efficiently. I am sure that they can be more useful than while sitting in positions. This has been going on for a day, two, a week, and this is not good for us ... Comrade President, Comrade Supreme Commander-in-Chief, I have repeatedly said that I am your infantryman. I am ready to give my life for you. But I cannot watch how my and our fighters die. I beg you to ignore everything and let finish in a day or two what is happening there,” Ramzan Kadyrov said in his audio message in Russian, posted on his Telegram channel.

The leader of Chechnya has also added that he considers it unfair to ignore the losses among the fighters. “To hold negotiations is good, and democracy, freedom of speech, and human lives are also good. But our brothers, our relatives and friends are dying. No one pays attention to that. Therefore, I think this is already unfair," Ramzan Kadyrov said.
