The head of Chechnya Ramzan Kadyrov spoke out sharply about the positive statements of the singer Alla Pugacheva about the leader of the Chechen separatists Dzhokhar Dudayev.
Pugacheva told the channel “Skazhi Gordeeva“ about her acquaintance with Dzhokhar Dudayev and called him a “decent, honorable and intelligent“ person.
Ramzan Kadyrov stated in his Telegram channel that, first of all, the Chechens themselves should appreciate the figure of Dzhokhar Dudayev. According to him, Dudayev's desire for high positions, his ostentatious behavior and ignoring the real needs of the Chechen people led to a surge in crime and a complete collapse of the economy. If Russia has experienced a crisis on this time, then the situation in the republic was even more difficult, the Chechen leader emphasized.
He noted that at the most difficult moment for the Chechen people, Dudayev "bragged about missiles and tanks". Kadyrov recalled that this war took tens of thousands of lives and left many people disabled.
“So these pitiful empty words of the singer, who has absolutely no understanding of the subject, would be better left somewhere deep inside and not provoke an entire nation“, Kadyrov noted.
Singer Alla Pugacheva, praising the leader of the Chechen separatists Dzhokhar Dudayev, insulted the memory of three hundred thousand people who died during military campaigns in Chechnya, said the Minister of National Policy, Foreign Relations, Press and Information of the republic Akhmed Dudayev.
“Dzhokhar Dudayev is a terrorist, because of whose criminal actions in the Chechen Republic about three hundred thousand people died, tens of thousands were injured, disappeared... With such statements, praising such a terrorist, I believe that Alla Pugacheva insults the memory of all three hundred thousand people who died. She insults the memory of the deceased law enforcement officers who restored constitutional order in our republic. She insults the entire Chechen people“, said Akhmed Dudayev in a video posted on the Telegram channel.
