Russian publicist and sociologist Andriy Piontkovsky believes that the scandalous leader of Chechnya, Ramzan Kadyrov, is preparing for a war of independence.

This opinion was expressed by a publicist on the air of one of the TV channels.

According to Piontkovsky, the collapse of the Russian Federation is already happening, and Kadyrov understands that

after Putin's departure, the Russian security forces will pounce on him,

so you need to be ready for war. 

"There is a fundamental difference between Kadyrov's PMC and 27 other PMCs of Prigozhin and others. These are gangster structures that understand that the war in Ukraine has been lost, and understand what a collapse of property will be in Russia. These PMCs will begin to prepare for a huge mafia struggle for property. And Kadyrov is preparing for another war, preparing to defend his independence,

he needs an army

," added Piontkovsky.

Is the disintegration of Russia likely?

We will remind you that an online referendum for the independence of five republics was held in Russia recently.

In particular, we are talking about Konigsberg (Kaliningrad and region), Ingria (St. Petersburg and Leningrad region), Kuban (Krasnodar region), Siberia and the Urals.

At the beginning of February, representatives of these republics appealed to NATO and the EU for help in order to separate from Russia.

In addition, they declared their intention to fight on the side of Ukraine.

The representatives of the regions stated that the future of each liberated people and region should be decided by the people and the region themselves based on the principle of self-determination of the nation up to secession and other generally recognized norms of international law.
