The head of Chechnya, Ramzan Kadyrov, said today that the government of the republic is to cease the program for the return of citizens who left to fight for the terrorist organization ‘Islamic State.’ "We cannot persuade and be lenient all the time. Talk about ‘being deceived’ looks ridiculous. But when a smell of gunpowder appeared in the air, everybody saw the reality suddenly. It is hard to believe in such insight,’’ Kadyrov told at a meeting with the leadership of the Chechen Interior Ministry.
The Chechen leader said that at first those who wished to return to the country were provided assistance with the mandatory establishment of the degree of the guilt of the Chechen residents for participating in ISIS.
