“About what happened yesterday in Urus-Martan. Some say that employees from the National Guard participated there. These were not employees, but reservists who were waiting in line for a job in the state. but I want to talk about the continuation, about how the people were doing when they gathered around the employees. Therefore, I ordered all special forces to go there, and I also call on everyone who was there yesterday, if you are men, to come and attack the employees, because you want to fight and fight with us. Or we will send you to Ukraine, where a special operation is being carried out. Shame on you. You are not a man if you cannot protect an employee who has come to you to protect your roads.
From tomorrow morning there will be employees there, and if you are men, let at least one of you show your displeasure – then we will show you. We have your complete lists, so either get together for NWO or come to Urus-Martan. I will send the traffic police regiment, the “First Regiment”, the “Akhmat Kadyrov Regiment” and all the other special forces there. Let's see what you are. surrounded one or two employees, signaled to them – you showed that you are not men. Where was your courage when you hid behind your wives, afraid of subpoenas? You ran away scared like chickens. A man does not behave like that, and as Zakriev Sahab said: “A man should prove himself not in bad or good times, but a man should always be a man.” You have shown yourself for who you are, so we will treat you accordingly.”
