Warlord-turned-president Ramzan Kadyrov rolls deep around Chechnya, in this video blogged then interpreted and re-blogged by Moscow’s English alt-weekly The Exile:
It shows a procession of about 50 luxury cars, mostly BMWs, Porsche Cayennes and huge Lexus SUVs—speeding around the republic like it’s the Dakar Rally.A blogger added up the value of Kadyrov’s caravan and estimated it’s worth somewhere around $3,000,000 (Porsche Cayennes go for around $200,000 in Russia), and that’s not counting the tag-along Volgas, Ladas and Zhigs that brought in the rear. Is this a sign of Chechnya’s economic resurgence or what?
