Georgia and Azerbaijan are striving to simplify border crossings: the parties plan to introduce a single-window system at joint border crossings.

In an interview with the Rossiya TV channel, the head of Chechnya, Ramzan Kadyrov, condemned the ban by the Ukrainian authorities on the local Orthodox Church.
"This is insanity. Even the devil could not come up with something like this, let alone a person. Because of this, they must be destroyed, they have no faith. These Ukrainian devils who perform there, they are atheists," Kadyrov said.
He also added that the true purpose of banning the UOC is to worsen Russia's position in accordance with the interests of the West. According to the head of the Chechen Republic, this step by the Ukrainian authorities once again proves that it is not worth negotiating with them. In addition, Ramzan Kadyrov believes that Russia should not stop the "SVO" - it must be brought to an end.
