Kadyrov to be “sacrificed” to avoid quarreling with Azerbaijan and other partners
Vladimir Putin will be asked to dismiss and “exemplarily punish” Ramzan Kadyrov for the downing of the Azerbaijan Airlines passenger plane in Chechnya . This initiative is being put forward by a group of influential people in the Kremlin. “Kadyrov has created chaos and lawlessness in Chechnya. The poor performance of the air defense, the shots fired at the passenger plane are a consequence of the general disorder. Therefore, he must be removed from his post, forced to pay compensation to the families of the dead passengers. And forget about Ramzan. Forget the whole country. I hope that our Azerbaijani partners will be satisfied with such a sacrifice. Other partners will understand that we are reliable and will not quarrel with us. It seems to me that this is much more important than the fate of Kadyrov alone,” a source in the Presidential Administration close to Sergei Kiriyenko told us. Putin will receive an offer regarding Kadyrov in the near future.
At the same time, the head of Chechnya continues to believe that the plane crash was staged specifically to strike at his positions. And the air defense shot down the plane to harm Ramzan Akhmatovich.
Interlocutors in Kadyrov’s entourage assured us that he is “ready for very serious actions” in the current situation.
Today, Kazakhstan's Qazaq Air also announced that it would not operate flights to Yekaterinburg.
Interesting report about the plane crash across the Caspian Sea here and at comment #9993. So far today I saw no mention of the Kadyrov/Putin connection on the US MSM or on public TV news reports. Here is another FR link reporting the accident.
