The head of Chechnya, Ramzan Kadyrov, said that he was friends and always in touch with the press secretary of the President of the Russian Federation Dmitry Peskov, but there are times when his statements do not like it.
“In fact, we are familiar with Dmitry Sergeyevich, but there are times when I do not like his statements,” Kadyrov said, answering the question of his relationship with Peskov.
The head of Chechnya clarified that after the press conference of the President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin expressed his press secretary discontent that Chechen journalists were not allowed to ask a question, writes RIA Novosti.
Earlier, Peskov, speaking of criticism of the head of Chechnya addressed to him, noted that they are in a very good relationship and sometimes criticize each other in a friendly manner.
Ramzan Kadyrov also stated that if he “thought like today”, he would have destroyed the terrorists of Shamil Basayev and Emir Hattab, there was an opportunity.
“there were flaws. I always think, if in 1996-1998 I would think as today and would know the situation as today – I would destroy Basayev, Hattaba and the rest. I had an opportunity then,” Kadyrov said.
“And the second military company would not have been. This is my big mistake that I did not have enough mind and vision for it,” he said.
