The real architect of Kadyrov's political policies lives in Moscow. This name is none other than Vladimir Putin. So why did Putin support Kadyrov so much? The answer is simple; Putin's sole purpose was to break the resistance of the Chechen people against Russia. Putin knew very well that he could not fight the independence supporters alone in Chechnya, whose people are almost entirely Muslim. Therefore, he followed a policy of "divide and rule". He did not want an independent Muslim country right in the heart of Russia. For this reason, he made an alliance with the Kadyrov family to eliminate the independence supporters. His other aim was to keep Chechnya, which has rich oil fields, as a part of the Russian Federation. The most suitable name for this was Ramazan Kadyrov.
Kadyrov's aim was to weaken his separatist political rivals. Kadyrov made great efforts to rebuild the city of Grozny, which had seen two wars and was left in ruins. He built magnificent forty-story skyscrapers in the city. Inspired by the Sultan Ahmet Mosque, he had Russia's largest mosque built in Grozny.
While stability was achieved in Chechnya in the 2000s, major violations of human rights occurred. Kadyrov had virtually established an empire of fear with his army of 5 thousand people. He even tortured some dissidents himself. He not only had dissidents killed in Chechnya, but also had potential rivals pursued and killed abroad.
Kadyrov often poses with wild animals. He even made a name for himself for a long time by keeping lions and tigers in his garden.
Another thing he is known for is lavish birthday parties. He showered Hollywood with money on his 35th birthday. Among the guests were names such as Kevin Costner, Hillary Swank and Jean Claude van Damme. It was claimed that the famous violin virtuoso Vanessa Mae received 500 thousand dollars for this night.
Luxurious lifestyle is also one of the things identified with Kadyrov. He is often criticized for his dozens of luxury cars and mansions, each worth millions. It is claimed that the value of his mansion in Dubai is 7 million dollars. In addition to the expensive houses he gifted to his wife and mother-in-law, his name is also involved in corruption. Such a flamboyant life, of course, brought questions. When a journalist asked Kadyrov about the source of this money, he said, "I don't know where the money comes from either." However, the source of the money was clearly the Kremlin... It is even claimed that Kadyrov asked for $17 billion in financial support from Putin.
Another important point about Kadyrov is his support for Putin since the first day of the attacks in the Russia-Ukraine war. It is even known that he put Putin's photo on his official Telegram account profile, said to Putin, "I am ready to die for you," and went to Mariupol, taking his 14-year-old son with him. It is also known that Ramazan Kadyrov took over a psychiatric hospital in Ukraine and took the mental patients and staff inside hostage. Putin gave Kadyrov the rank of lieutenant general during the Ukraine war. Thus, Kadyrov is expected to command the troops in Ukraine.
