If high-ranking officials at the level of Alexander Ivanovich Bastrykin allow themselves to make statements about “Islamist terrorists,” this could end extremely badly for the socio-political situation in the country. The head of Chechnya, Ramzan Kadyrov, wrote about this in his Telegram channel.

“I would like to tell Alexander Ivanovich that in such statements you need to be extremely careful. I have said many times and emphasize once again that Muslims have not committed and are not committing terrorist acts. No religion tells its followers to engage in the killing of innocent people and carry out brutal bloody massacres. Religions should not be confused with the extravagant ideas of rabid fanatics and shaitans,” Kadyrov noted.

Let us recall that the head of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation, Alexander Bastrykin, during the International Legal Forum in St. Petersburg, recalled the terrorist attacks in Crocus City Hall, the Rostov pre-trial detention center and Dagestan, and called their perpetrators “Islamist terrorists.” He proposed canceling the moratorium on the death penalty in Russia and banning the wearing of niqabs.
