In Sevastopol, a portrait of Ramzan Kadyrov was hung again next to the image of Marshal Zhukov

A portrait of the head of Chechnya, Ramzan Kadyrov, has been hung again on the central embankment of Sevastopol. It is located next to the image of Marshal Georgy Zhukov. The previous portrait of Kadyrov was previously removed after the indignation of local residents.

According to the director of the Sevastopol aquarium, Yuri Kravtsov, he contacted law enforcement agencies dealing with extremism issues in connection with the dismantling of the portrait of the head of Chechnya. Kravtsov called this a "hostile act" and "incitement of ethnic hatred" and said that he would personally notify Kadyrov about the restoration of the banner.

Kravtsov explained that, in his opinion, the current military actions in Ukraine are connected with the Great Patriotic War. He also emphasized that Kadyrov is "Putin's most devoted soldier" and expressed his personal readiness to give his life for the Motherland and the president.
