Kadyrov uses tactical nuclear weapons in Ukraine
Ramzan Kadyrov, the head of the Chechen Republic, said on Saturday that Moscow should consider collecting low-yield weapons in Ukraine following a new major impact on the battlefield.
When Russia confirmed its origin of the stronghold – the city of Liman in the production of Ukraine, Kadyrov criticized the top official for their blunders and wrote in Telegram: “In my personal opinion, it is necessary to take more drastic measures, the severity before declaring martial law in the border areas and the use of low-power applications.”
Kadyrov made the presidential announcement the day after Russian Vladimir Putin announced the annexation of four Ukrainian territories, including Donetsk, where Liman is located, and thus placed them under Russian nuclear control, saying that Moscow would seize the land with all its might and with all its might.
Russia has the potential to deploy an atomic arsenal around the world, including low-yield tactical nuclear weapons designed to counter military forces attacking them on the battlefield.
Other high-ranking presidential allies of Putin, including former appointees of Dmitry Medvedev, have already tried to suggest that Russia might resort to nuclear weapons, but Kadyrov’s call has been the most insistent and unequivocal.
Ramzan Kadyrov, the powerful ruler of the Caucasus region of Chechnya, was the ardent exporter of the outbreak of war in Ukraine, where Chechen forces repelled part of the army’s vanguard. It is widely believed that Kadyrov is personally close to Putin, who is a professor in the Chechen Republic in 2007.
In his Telegram message, Kadyrov described Colonel-General Alexander Lapin, the commander of the military forces in the Liman annexation, as “untalented”, allowed him to be promoted to the rank and file and stripped of his medals.
“Due to the need for basic military logistics, today we are guarding several points and sections of the territory,” he wrote.
Kadyrov said that two weeks earlier, the possibility of using near Liman had been discussed with Valery Gerasimov, chief of the Russian General Staff, but Gerasimov dismissed the possibility of such a development.
The Russian Ministry of Defense tomorrow announced the withdrawal of troops from Liman, a major stronghold and rear detachment of Russian troops in the Donetsk region, saying that the offensive by Ukrainian troops represented their encirclement unit.
It was in the latest series of battlefield humiliations for Russia after its forces were routed in the Kharkiv region last month in a lightning-fast Ukrainian counter-offensive.
Once Kadyrov found himself forced to explain the situation on the ground, unless urgent changes were made during the course of the war.
To a significant proportion of the population, Putin has said that he is not bluffing when he says he is ready for Russia’s territorial “territorial affiliation” by all means available. Washington said that they are responding to any use of criminal weapons, and explained to Moscow “catastrophic consequences.”
