The Qodirov family received over a hundred awards in 41 months

Since the war between Russia and Ukraine began, the leader of Chechnya, Ramzan Kadyrov, and his close relatives have received numerous awards. This was reported by Zamin.uz.

According to analyses by the publication "Verstka," over the last 41 months, Kadyrov personally received 31 orders and medals, which means he is awarded approximately once every 40 days. This process has involved not only him but also family members.

In second place in the ranking is his son Adam Kadyrov. He has received 16 awards, half of which were granted within two months, specifically in October and November 2023.

During this period, reports circulated about Adam beating prisoner Nikita Juravel in a detention center in Grozny. The awarding of honors to him after this incident surprised many.

In third place is Kadyrov's daughter Aishat Kadyrova. She has received 10 state awards since 2022.

These awards are being evaluated as a manifestation of family and political influence. Out of a total of 146 awards, 82 are local awards from Chechnya, while the others were granted by federal ministries and agencies of Russia, particularly the Rosgvardiya, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the Federal Penitentiary Service.

This indicates that the Kadyrov family has close ties with Russian state structures. Additionally, they have also been awarded by administrations in annexed parts of Ukraine and some foreign states, including officials from Libya and South Ossetia.

The constant awarding of orders and medals to Adam Kadyrov has become a source of jokes and memes on the internet. Reports about the awards published in the media have not only sparked critical opinions but also humorous reactions.

According to "Verstka," in many cases, these awards are directly requested by Chechen officials. For example, in October 2023, Kadyrov's administration requested the governments of Kabardino-Balkaria and Adygea to award Adam an order.

Although this request was initially rejected, a month later, Adam received the highest award from Kabardino-Balkaria. It is evident that the number of awards is not just a figure; there is significant political influence and image-building behind them.

At the same time, this situation raises many questions. The biggest question is how genuine the services for which these awards are given are.
