Kadyrov: Issue of Chechnya-Ingushetia border closed

The issue of an administrative border between Russia’s North Caucasus republics of Chechnya and Ingushetia, demarcated in a bilateral agreement in late September, is now closed, Chechen President Ramzan Kadyrov told reporters.

"We have made a decision to deal with this issue, that has long been discussed, once and for all," TASS quoted Kadyrov as saying. "The matter is now closed for us - the agreement has been signed, the laws have been adopted."

"For me, as the leader of Chechnya, the matter is closed," he added. "There will be no conflict or quarrel between us."

According to Kadyrov, the deal was signed to improve economic, cultural and political relations between the two brotherly republics. "Some people fail to understand, but they eventually will. This takes time," he said.

The Chechen leader said he had no plans to unite Chechnya and Ingushetia as "the issue is irrelevant in Russia."
