Ramzan Kadyrov says he wants to step down

Mmm wonder why the sudden change? Many Kadyrovites dying in Ukraine?

Kadyrov is known for his bolshy rhetoric and wild claims of Chechen strength. His troops have been called on by Russia to assist in the war.

He has previously claimed that he and his army are ready to take on the West toe-to-toe and "easily take Kyiv and the NATO countries".

Kadyrov lost 2 batallions in Severodonetsk.

And his enforcers deployed at the Kherson region bridges on the Dnieper have been mostly liquidated by the HIMAR strikes over the past month.

His goldie AK thing is gauche, but the collection of traditional Caucasian weapons behind him is very cool. Kinjals?

So, he is not ALL bad.
