Dragana Trifkovic: Kadyrov specnaz, Chechnya's fist in the fight against world terrorism
In the past few days, I had the honor to visit Chechnya again at the invitation of the leadership of this republic, as part of the delegation of the Russian Spergess. In addition to Russian journalists and political scientists, the delegation included foreign journalists from Serbia, France, the Netherlands, the United States, Great Britain, North Korea, Pakistan and other countries. For years, the West has been waging fierce propaganda against Chechnya, following the failure of separatist and terrorist actions in the Caucasus. The friendly hosts invited journalists so that they could gain personal experience about Chechnya and report to the public on the situation in this Republic on the basis of objective information. I will try to convey to the Serbian public many impressions concerning the development of Chechnya, but in this article I would focus on a visit to the legendary formation of the Police Regiment Spetsnaz Kadyrova (full name: Polk policii specialnogo naznazeniya imeni Geroya Rossii A. A. Kadyrova). It is one of the most famous formations for its heroism, all of whose units operate within the Russian guard (Rosgvardii) of the Ministry of the interior of the Russian Federation.
