After taking office, Putin turned the tide and lifted up a Russia that was facing tremendous pressure. Relying on his iron-fisted management, he straightened out Russia's social relations and resisted the suppression of Western countries. After successfully solving the Chechnya issue, Putin has a tall image in the eyes of the Russian people and has been recognized by the people. The current leader of Chechnya has publicly stated that he likes Putin very much. Putin is a very good person and he is only loyal to Putin.
Putin depends on Kadyrov Jr. to stabilize the situation. On the other hand, if he loses Putin, he will be attacked by his political opponents. Therefore, they rely on each other to form a body of destiny, which is a powerful combination. Chechens are loyal to Kadyrov Jr. Senior officials in Moscow have a bad impression of Kadyrov Jr. Some people accuse him of not speaking Russian even though he has been the leader of Chechnya for more than ten years.
Many Russian officials, high-level society, and ordinary people are worried that if Putin is gone and Chechnya rebels, will there be a third Chechen war? Consider two situations. First, whether Putin’s successor is also a political strongman like Putin. Will Kadyrov Jr. want to suppress the new Russian president in the future? Will the new president be able to scare him?
Will there be large-scale unrest within the Russian country? After Putin, if Western countries strengthen sanctions on Russia, then Russia's pro-Western forces will cause trouble. If the Russian government fails to respond effectively, the situation will get out of control and large-scale civil strife will occur. Next, those Chechens who have been fighting Russia for 200 years will take advantage of the situation and rise up.
