Tumso invites head of Chechnya to dispute about Kadyrov Senior

The blogger Tumso Abdurakhmanov has invited Ramzan Kadyrov to discuss the historical role of Akhmat Kadyrov, warning that he would ask "uncomfortable questions."

The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that on August 13, Ramzan Kadyrov told the Chechens from Jordan about the exceptional role of his father in ending the war and his conversation with Putin. The new efforts to glorify Kadyrov Senior are caused by the recent dispute about the personality of Imam Shamil, the residents of Chechnya and the scientists interviewed by the "Caucasian Knot" have suggested.

Tumso Abdurakhmanov has reacted to Kadyrov's meeting with Jordan Chechens and drew attention to Kadyrov's readiness to "prove for hours" his rightness to anyone.

"It's very easy to sit 150 Jordan Chechens in front of you, since they won't contradict and ask uneasy questions. If you can prove [your rightness] to anyone, then try to prove it to me," Tumso Abdurakhmanov has addressed the head of Chechnya in his live broadcast, the record of which was posted on the blogger's YouTube channel.

"I invite you [to a dispute]," the blogger told Ramzan Kadyrov, assuring him that Ramzan Kadyrov will not be able to explain his standpoint for hours in a monologue. "With me, you'll have to dispute, and answer very uncomfortable questions. I'll point to your contradictions, and you will have to get out," Tumso Abdurakhmanov has warned his potential opponent.
