Caucasian experts call victories of Kadyrov's children a step in preparation of his successor

While demonstrating the athletic achievements of his sons, Ramzan Kadyrov tries to form an image of winners who can replace him in the future as leader of Chechnya, analysts suggest.

The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that on September 3, three sons of Ramzan Kadyrov won fights at the "Time of Legends-5" boxing evening in Grozny. Internet users questioned the reliability of the victories of Ramzan Kadyrov's sons. The demonstrative victories of the sons of the Chechen leader at tournaments are aimed at strengthening the cult of the Kadyrov family, but they look ridiculous, says Svetlana Gannushkina, the chair of the "Civic Assistance" Committee.

Caucasian expert Mikhail Roschin believes that Ramzan Kadyrov deliberately plans to make his sons the companions in power. "This is accepted in the East, where the continuity in power is considered a standard," the expert explained.

The sons of Ramzan Kadyrov are destined for career growth, as well as his daughter Aishat, who got an award for a fashion show in Paris this spring and was appointed the Deputy Minister of Culture of Chechnya a week ago, Mikhail Roschin suggests.

Svetlana Gannushkina does not rule out that the Ramzan Kadyrov's sons will start a power struggle among themselves.

Political analyst Alexei Malashenko also believes that Ramzan Kadyrov is preparing his successors. However, according to the expert, the leader of Chechnya starts to arrange it too early. When political changes take place in Russia, the children of Ramzan Kadyrov will lose all their positions "in a minute," the expert suggests.
