Kadyrov said he trusts his relatives in government positions and demands a lot from them

“Thousands of Chechens sacrificed their lives for the sake of the Constitution of our republic.

Among them are my relatives, friends, relatives and the person dearest to me - Father.

The lion's share of the current officials are the very first members of Kadyrov's team who risked their lives," said the head of Chechnya.

Kadyrov added that what matters to him is the result and dedication, and not what "some literal political scientist will say."

“And do not forget about what I have said many times: the demand from my relatives in any institution and in any position is ten times greater, because they need to prove that they work not because of me, but in spite of me,” he said.

Earlier, Ramzan Kadyrov, during a direct line, answered the question of how he reacts to reports that he is being called a contender for the presidency of Russia.
