Watch: Putin’s Visit to Chechnya for Security and Development Review, Warmly Welcomed by Kadyrov

This archival video, originally published on Ramzan Kadyrov’s official channel, documents Russian President Vladimir Putin’s visit to the Chechen Republic in August 2024. The footage follows the full itinerary of the visit, including Putin’s stop at the grave of former Chechen President Akhmat-Haji Kadyrov, a tour of the Russian Special Forces University in Gudermes, and an inspection of the Prophet Isa Mosque ahead of its opening. Kadyrov is seen presenting Putin with the title of “Honorary Citizen of the Chechen Republic,” while Putin gifts a handcrafted Quran. The video also shows Putin reviewing plans for a new district in Grozny named after him, speaking to journalists, and holding a working meeting on socio-economic affairs in the region. The visit concluded late at night as Kadyrov bid farewell to the president at the airport, marking Putin’s eleventh trip to Grozny. #Putin #Kadyrov #Chechnya #Grozny #Russia #Gudermes #AkhmatKadyrov #SpecialForcesUniversity #ProphetIsaMosque #Archive2024
