Putin's State Propaganda Has Begun To "piss On" Kadyrov

The head of Chechnya was humiliated on live TV.

The head of Chechnya, Ramzan Kadyrov, has become so weak that the Kremlin's propaganda machine has begun to "piss him off". On Russian television, he was actually accused of separatism. Such public humiliation of the Chechen leader is impossible without authorization from Moscow; it is a "black mark," Dialog.UA reports.

The well-known Kremlin Z-propagandist Nadana Friedrichson has spoken out publicly about Kadyrov's conflict with Russian deputy-general Vladimir Shamanov.

The Chechen leader recently accused the Russian lawmaker of war crimes during the Chechen war and began sending him to the so-called "SVO" to show off his "skills".

The propagandist sided with Shamanov and humiliated Kadyrov. "His (Shamanov - ed.) awards are soaked in sweat and blood. This is a fact. And what about Kadyrov? (...) He has a whole gallery of medals. And what is the price of them? He wrote them out for himself! Let's compare the biography of Shamanov and Kadyrov," Friedrichson said.

This attack by a state-level propagandist was unprecedented. Previously, any conflicts with the Chechen leader had been carefully hushed up. Now the Kremlin system itself has actually questioned Kadyrov's past, recalling that he took part in the Chechen war on the side of Dudayev and Basayev - those whom Moscow has for years called terrorists.

The scandal arose over the renaming of several settlements in Chechnya. The replacement of Russian names with Chechen ones sparked a storm of outrage among far-right Z-patriots, who accused Kadyrov of "demonstrative contempt for Russian history."

Shamanov, who took part in the Chechen wars, was particularly vocal. This public conflict was a new milestone in the internal division of Putin's system. It exposed the growing confrontation between power elites and national groups that the Kremlin itself had nurtured. Russia, steeped in militarism and xenophobia, is increasingly becoming a powder keg where ethnic and political contradictions could explode at any moment.
