Social network users treat Kadyrov's visit to Ingushetia as Evkurov's "tripping"

Ramzan Kadyrov came to the Ingush elder Mukhazhir Nalgiev, who had criticized the head of Chechnya at the rally in Magas, and called on the Ingushes to give up claiming him. Kadyrov laid all the responsibility for the border agreement on Yunus-Bek Evkurov, Ingushetia residents have noted in social networks.

The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that on October 16, Kadyrov expressed threats to the organizers of the rally in Magas, inviting them to hold a rally in the territory they consider illegally transferred to Chechnya.

On October 19, the head of Chechnya arrived in the Ingush village of Surkhakhi. According to him, after a respectful conversation, he and Elder Mukhazhir Nalgiev apologised to each other for possible offenses.

"They talked quite peacefully. Nalgiev said that attempts to pressure him and scare him were useless. Then they both apologized to each other and parted," the "Kommersant" quotes the Ingush oppositionist Sarazhdin Sultygov as saying.

According to the Telegram-channel "Glavkom RI", at his meeting with villagers, Kadyrov asked to "leave him alone," saying that he had not demanded to transfer Ingush territories to Chechnya.

"In short, Kadyrov laid all the responsibility on Evkurov," Rasul Asad, the author of the Telegram-channel, "Ask Rasul" and a blogger, wrote on the Facebook.

Yakub Gogiev, an Ingush historian and activist, said that Kadyrov's words put the head of Ingushetia into an uncomfortable position.
