🇷🇺🇺🇦Kadyrov: Now they came up with Ukraine. And what, Russia should give way to Western countries, which are 9 thousand kilometers away? Who does not understand that America does not want anything good for Ukraine? In order to dictate their terms to Russia, they need a state to set up bases there. If there are people in Ukraine, they must resist this. And if not, then Russia must take action. If I had been instead of the president, I would have taken Ukraine a long time ago, sent troops there, and put things in order. If crazy, corrupt people are at the head of the state and threaten our security, should we be silent or what? If they had not been stopped in Syria, it would have all passed to us in Russia. In the same way, everything from Ukraine will pass to us, we need to take preventive measures.
I serve my people, I'm Putin's infantryman, don't joke with us! Russia was, is and will be a great power.
