This is the only way. Kadyrov allegedly canceled the "take no prisoners" order

Kadyrov

Ramzan Kadyrov, a loyalist of the Russian dictator in Chechnya, said that he is canceling the order "not to take prisoners" of the soldiers of the Defense Forces of Ukraine on the battlefield. He cynically lied that he decided to do it because he had received many letters from Ukrainians.

Points of attention

  • Kadyrov invented that thousands of Ukrainians were writing him letters.
  • The drone attack on the Russian Special Forces University in Chechnya became a kind of challenge for Russia.
  • Misinformation and threats from Ramzan Kadyrov point to a tense situation in the region.

Kadyrov changed his decision again

It is important to understand that the order "take no prisoners" was allegedly issued by an aide of the Russian dictator against the backdrop of a drone attack on the building of the Russian Special Forces University named after Putin in Chechnya.

Only now he has sharply changed his position, because he allegedly received more than two thousand letters from the residents of Ukraine.

It is worth paying attention to the fact that Kadyrov did not provide any photo evidence.

According to him, these are letters of various contents written to him by Ukrainian women, as well as, they say, by the soldiers of the Armed Forces themselves.

However, the explanation of the request in each statement is the same: surrendering to Russian fighters is the only way to stay alive for those who are sent to the trenches against their will... The order "to take no prisoners" has been lifted. Those willing to surrender to Russian troops will live. I don't envy the rest, — Kadyrov said cynically.

What is known about the drone attack in Chechnya

In October, drones attacked the territory of Chechnya for the first time. The target for the attack drones was the Russian Special Forces University (RUS) named after Putin in Gudermes.

According to Ukrainian journalists, who refer to their sources in the special services, UAVs could be launched from Dagestan.

The showdowns that took place in Moscow recently, in the business center, etc. They are all connected, said an anonymous source.

Ramzan Kadyrov himself, reacting to this attack, threatened "retribution" to those responsible for the attack and ordered "not to take prisoners."

Andriy Kovalenko, head of the Center for Combating Disinformation at the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine, said that it was a kind of greeting for the "Kadyrivians".

The introduction of peacekeepers into Ukraine. Will NATO join the mission?

NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte said it was currently unlikely that the Alliance would participate in a peacekeeping mission in Ukraine after the ceasefire, suggesting that this could have implications for NATO's future defense of its territory.

Points of attention

  • NATO Secretary General Rutte underlines the complexities surrounding NATO's potential participation in the peacekeeping mission, with the possibility of NATO allies being involved.
  • The determination of NATO's role in the peacekeeping mission will depend on the nature of the peace agreement, with various proposals from different countries contributing to the decision-making process.

Rutte explained why NATO will not join the peacekeeping mission

Journalists wondered what exactly the Alliance's participation might look like if peacekeepers were sent to Ukraine.

According to Mark Rutte, this is a difficult issue at the moment because it will probably not involve NATO as such.

It's unlikely. But it could be NATO allies that would be involved. And that always means that it would affect NATO territory. It could also have implications for the defense of NATO territory in the future.

As Rutte noted, in this sense, we need to coordinate and interact — this applies to Italian proposals, British-French ideas, and some ideas of German leader Olaf Scholz.

And then, I think, the best moment to determine which approach is best is when we know what a peace agreement looks like," the NATO Secretary General emphasized.
