Kremlin released a video of Russian President Vladimir speaking with Chechen warlord Ramzan Kadyrov, believed to be ‘seriously ill’ and fighting for life in a coma.

In the video released on Thursda (Sept 28), Putin was seen meeting Kadyrov, whose face is not shown. The clip lasts for only four seconds.

Images later released by the state-run agencies showed Kadyrov sitting before Putin and seemingly having a conversation.

Kadyrov in a post on Telegram said that he&nbsp;talked to the Russian president about a range of topics including the role of Chechen fighters in Ukraine. He added teasingly that "other issues" were raised, and promised "more on this later."

According to Sky News, Putin praised Kadyrov for creating a "positive dynamic" in Chechnya, who was shown handing him some papers from a file.

<h2>Chechen leader had 'severe kidney failure'</h2>

The meeting comes amid rumours that Kadyrov has been suffering from serious health problems.

Former editor-in-chief of Echo of Moscow Alexey Venediktov had earlier claimed that the Chechen leader was in the hospital with "severe kidney failure" which requires "frequent hemodialysis".

But earlier this month, Kadyrov posted a video online saying that he was fine and that his reason for travelling to a Moscow hospital was to visit the bed-ridden sick uncle.

Russia’s Vladimir Putin meets Chechen warlord Ramzan Kadyrov, who was rumoured to be 'in coma'

Yakub Zakriev, a nephew of Chechnya's leader Ramzan Kadyrov, has been appointed the new head of Russia's Danone subsidiary after the Kremlin ordered the state to take temporary control of the French yoghurt maker's business in Russia.

Yakub Zakriev, a nephew of Chechnya's leader Ramzan Kadyrov, has been appointed the new head of Russia's Danone subsidiary after the Kremlin ordered the state to take temporary control of the French yoghurt maker's business in Russia. According to a report by the news agency Reuters on Wednesday (July 19), Zakriev, 32, a deputy prime minister of Chechnya and the republic's agriculture minister, took the post of general director of Danone Russia on Tuesday. His appointment was confirmed by Chechnya's minister for national policy, foreign relations, and information Akhmed Dudayev. Taking to Telegram, Dudayev said, "Choosing him as general director of Danone Russia shows that representatives of the team of Chechen President and Hero of Russia Ramzan Akhmatovich Kadyrov are talented and successful managers." Dudayev added the 32-year-old has experience working in the most responsible positions. The end of a 30-year Russian experiment by Danone The Reuters report on Wednesday said that the appointment of Zakriev marked the end of a 30-year Russian experiment by Danone which opened a dairy store near Red Square in 1992, a year after the fall of the Soviet Union. As the chaos in the 1990s ended, Russia and the former Soviet Union were perceived as major potential markets, with relatively low consumption of dairy products by European standards along with explosive purchasing power growth. Danone had sought alliances with big local players during the boom years and went on to gain at least a fifth of Russia's dairy market. And as Russia launched its special military operation in February 2022, Danone said in October it would relinquish control of its dairy food business in Russia. Last Sunday, Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a decree which stated that the government had taken control of Danone's Russian subsidiary along with a brewery owned by beer company Carlsberg. Speaking to Reuters, a person familiar with the developments said that Danone was closely following the situation in Russia with a focus on the safety of its 7,500 staff. The person added that the company was continuing to review legal options after the seizure of its Russian assets.
