The president noted that he is pleased Chechen units have good contacts with other formations and higher units.
Kadyrov, for his part, said that the fighters were in good spirits and that all their questions and problems were being solved. The troops are capturing Ukrainian soldiers every day and destroying enemy equipment.

"No, Abrams tanks are not frightening. [...] And so, today the fighters have a good mood, I sometimes look in - how and what. Absolutely all their problems are solvable, there are no problems: communication, equipment. [...] We have bought a thousand armored vehicles from the beginning of operation and to date," Kadyrov said.
