Peskov responded evasively about Kadyrov’s health condition

During a briefing, Russian Presidential Press Secretary Dmitry Peskov answered a question from journalists about the state of health of the head of Chechnya, Ramzan Kadyrov.

“We don't have any information. In any case, the presidential administration can hardly provide information about his state of health. Therefore, we have nothing to say here,” Peskov shared. He also noted that there have been no recent meetings between the head of Chechnya and the Russian president.

Let us recall that last week there were reports that Kadyrov was seriously ill and was hospitalized at the Central Clinical Hospital by the Administrative Department of the President of the Russian Federation in Moscow. It was reported that motorcades with high-ranking associates of Kadyrov were spotted there. However, on September 17, he published a post on his Telegram channel with a video of him walking down the street and advising “everyone who cannot distinguish truth from lies on the Internet to take a walk in the fresh air and put their thoughts in order.”
