Kadyrov received the title of Hero of the Chechen Republic

He himself established this award and was the first to receive it.

The title, established in November 2022, was awarded to the head of Chechnya. The medal was presented today at a “ceremonial event in honor of Defender of the Fatherland Day.” “On behalf of the deputies of the Parliament of the Chechen Republic and on my own behalf, I wholeheartedly congratulate you on being awarded the highest title of the republic – Hero of the Chechen Republic for No. 1! Your services to the Chechen Republic and the Russian Federation cannot be overestimated and, without exaggeration, are worthy of a special study,” state media quote the words Chairman of the Parliament of the Chechen Republic Magomed Daudov.

The medal of the Hero of the Chechen Republic is an eight-pointed star made of 70 g of 750 gold. At the same time, the new title is awarded precisely by the head of Chechnya (Kadyrov himself), according to the documents on the awarding regulations.
