“In Russia, only one state official has the right to be called president,” he told the Chechen parliament, in a love note to Vladimir Putin, and two weeks later Kadyrov got his wish—as he often does—and his title became what it is today: “head of the republic.”
«A Rússia, sols una autoritat pot rebre l'apel·latiu de president», va dir al parlament txetxè, en una nota d'amor a Vladimir Putin. Dues setmanes després, el desig de Kadyrov es va fer realitat (tal com sol succeir) i va passar a rebre el títol que rep hui en dia: «cap de la república».
