Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov has called for a military response to countries supplying weapons and support to Ukraine, reports infohub.kz.

Kadyrov outlined his proposal in his Telegram channel, stating that infantrymen are ready to move on Vladimir Putin's orders in any direction. He argued that it would be appropriate to start with those countries that "under the cover of NATO, brazenly and openly provide weapons, intelligence, and other support" to Ukraine.

"If they still do not understand that Russia will not sit idly by and watch everything unfold, then the time has come not just to explain it to them in simple, accessible language. (...) As soon as they smell TNT, as soon as they hear the roar of the Kalashnikov and the clang of the T-90, they will all understand and come to the truth. It's time to open fire, and that's all there is to it!" Kadyrov wrote.

The Chechen leader said Russia is currently conducting restrained military operations with minimal civilian casualties. "But as soon as we release the brakes of our war machine, (...) all Western leaders will line up to offer their deepest apologies," Kadyrov concluded.
