"Russia's Republic of Chechnya has undergone a revival after two military operations in its recent post-Soviet history...."
You’d like to think there’s hope for the Chechens. But Islam is a slave-master of free thinking. Women are basically chattel in Chechnya.

so liberal...
so nonjudgmental...
Putin installed Kadyrov to run the country after the war. He tries to placate the islamobarbarians by forcing women to wear headdresses, etc.
