The head of the Chechen Republic Ramzan Kadyrov published a statement on the occasion of the next anniversary of the signing of the so-called. The Belovezhskaya Accords, which sealed the collapse of the Soviet Union.
“Twenty-eight years ago, Kravchuk, Yeltsin and Shushkevich destroyed the World Power - the Soviet Union. This, as well as the unprecedented policy of concessions to the West pursued by the President of the Soviet Union Mikhail Gorbachev, dealt an unprecedented blow to the economic, military, political, humanitarian, and social power of Russia, built over centuries.
The country found itself on the verge of a chain reaction of collapse caused by wars, sanctions, the approach of NATO to our borders... Russia was saved from falling into the abyss thanks to the firm and consistent policy of our President Vladimir Putin.
He returned to the Fatherland its former glory, strength, future, and gave a worthy rebuff to the West’s attempts to turn our country into a third-rate state, agreeing to London and Washington.
Sanctions and other openly hostile actions by the West have failed to bring Russia to its knees. Today Russia enjoys the respect of the world's major powers; not a single global problem can be solved without its participation.
For this, the people of Russia are grateful to Russian President Vladimir Putin. The lesson of Belovezhskaya Pushcha must be remembered forever,” writes Kadyrov.
