The head of Chechnya, Ramzan Kadyrov, has announced that he is considering leaving his post.
“Today I learned that I am the longest-serving head of republics in the Russian Federation. I have been leading the republic for 15 years now. I think my time has come before they expel me,” Kadyrov announced in a video published on his Telegram channel, as quoted by TASS.
The president of the Chechen Republic thinks he “deserved an indefinite and long vacation” on t.me/RKadyrov_95/2786, where the 1:38-minute video already has 15,158 comments.
According to Kadyrov, he was once “the youngest and most inexperienced” among statesmen. “He’s still so inexperienced now, but his youth has gone somewhere. We, the Caucasians, the Chechens, have a saying: “No matter how respected, long-awaited the guest is, if he leaves on time, it is even more pleasant”, … I hope that you will support me and understand – concluded the Chechen leader.
He will turn 46 in October.
