The head of Chechnya, Ramazan Kadyrov, recorded a video message on September 3, in which he hinted at his resignation..

“Today I learned that I, it turns out, is a “long-liver” among the current heads of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation. I myself noticed that I sat too long. I think I deserved an indefinite and long vacation.. I hope that you will support me and understand,"

In the address itself, Kadyrov recalled that he had been in charge of the Chechen Republic for 15 years, longer than any other of the current leaders of the Russian regions..

“We have a proverb among Caucasians, Chechens: no matter how respected, long-awaited the guest is, if he leaves on time, then it is even more pleasant. (…) So I think my time has come too before I get kicked out,” he added.

A source close to the presidential administration told Meduza that Kadyrov could head the National Guard.

The current head of the National Guard, Viktor Zolotov, is tipped to be the Minister of Defense instead of Sergei Shoigu, who fell out of favor amid the failures of the Russian army in Ukraine.
