Kadyrov Pledges Chechen support to the Russian Federation

Olya, what can I add, greetings!

Indeed, today there were more than 10,000 people at the Biliimhanov’s stadium in Grozny.

Most of them were representatives of law enforcement agencies of the Chechen Republic plus some civilians.

The stadium was full of people, every seat was occupied.

In addition, some of the officers lined up on running tracks.

Thus, the full count was more than 10,000, because the stadium’s capacity is exactly 10,000.

Ramzan Kadyrov addressed the crowd with a speech,

which was directed not only to them, but to all the peoples of Russia.

In his speech the head of the Republic reminded of the threat of terrorism,

which hangs today not only on Russia, but also the entire world.

Also the head of the Republic expressed the full readiness to support the fight against terrorism in Russia and the world

and protect the interests of the Russian Federation at any point on the globe.

I suggest to listen to an excerpt from his speech.

For many years with arms in hands, we fought against international terrorism and defeated it.

But the threat of terrorism in Russia has not yet disappeared.

I am sure that you are not indifferent to the fate of our Fatherland.

We remember the days when enemies surrounded Chechnya from all sides,

but there was not a single friend who was ready to stand up for the Chechen people.

This role was assumed not by a soldier, not by a politician, not by a general.

The mufti and the religious leader of Chechnya Akhmad Haji Kadyrov stood up to protect the people and the integrity of Russia.

He had no army, weapons and money, but he had the Holy Quran in his hands.

A formidable weapon for him were courage, fairness and faith in his rightness.

You could say the whole world was against Akhmad Haji.

Vladimir Putin was first who believed him, supported and held out a hand of friendship and assistance.

It was not easy to do.

Russian President had to prove to the politicians, the military and all the people,

that only Akhmad Haji will reassemble the torn apart Chechen people,

restore peace and stability and deal with international terrorism, trying to destroy the country.

In the most difficult moment, when there were no solutions to complex problems,

when the question arose for our people to be or not to be, Ahmad Haji appealed to Vladimir Putin

and not a single time he was refused - I saw it with my own eyes.

On May 1, 2004, speaking in front of the most famous people, Akhmad Haji said,

that the time has come when each of us must make his particular choice.

Today I repeat the words of Akhmad Haji - it's time to make an informed choice.

And we say to the entire world that we are combat infantry of Vladimir Putin.

If we receive an order, we will actually prove that this is so.

For fifteen years Putin is helping our people.

Now, you and I - and we have tens of thousands of people, specially trained -

ask the national leader of Russia to consider us a special voluntary unit of the Commander in Chief,

ready to defend Russia and the stability of its borders, accomplish a combat mission of any complexity.

We fully realize that the country has a regular army, air force, navy and nuclear forces.

However, there are tasks that can be solved only by volunteers, and we'll solve them.

America, Europe have declared an economic war on Russia.

They are trying to cause chaos in the country, panic, riots.

But the Russian people have united around their leader - Vladimir Putin.

The Chechen people takes one of the central places in this unity.

We have chosen the path of Akhmad Haji,

he firmly stood on the way of the Messenger of Allah.

Haji Ahmad said that he is ready to submit, if there is a person who proves

that he made even a single step that goes against the Quran.

Such a person has not yet been found.

Therefore, I firmly believe that you and I are on the path of Allah and His Messenger.

We will never deviate from this path.

Starting today, each of us must be ready at any moment to prove

their dedication to the cause of our lives.

We will meet Russia's enemy wherever he may be, in its own lair.

We publicly declare this to the whole world, so that it is clear and understandable to everyone -

Long live our great motherland Russia!

Long live our national leader of Russia Vladimir Putin!

Allahu Akbar!

Kadyrov: Really, today everyone was instructed that they are going to perform a combat order of the Commander in Chief.

Not a man, but a few, knew that actually they will not be sent today.

In fact, they were ready.

Backpacks, knapsacks, sleeping bags - everything was ready.

They came to complete the task.

- And where exactly they can be sent?

Well, the Commander in Chief decides this.

We looked at how we are ready to perform the tasks set.

I think we are happy to fulfill any order.

We are ready to move to any location in the world where our President tells us.

I have no doubt that we will not let him down.

We will execute any order, 100%.

- Ramzan Akhmatovich, have all these people written reports of resignation?

Kadyrov: All these people wrote in their reports that they are willing to comply with the order of the Commander in Chief

voluntarily and anywhere in the world.
