Chechen Leader Kadyrov Praises Elon Musk While Promoting Gun-Mounted Tesla Cybertruck

Ramzan Kadyrov, the leader of Chechnya, recently shared a video on the social media platform Telegram that featured him operating a Tesla Cybertruck equipped with a mounted firearm. In his post, Kadyrov conveyed his utmost appreciation for Elon Musk, whom he referred to as “the strongest genius of our time and a specialist. A great man.” This statement was reported by the Moscow Times, which also indicated that Kadyrov extended an invitation to Musk to visit Russia.

Kadyrov, who has held power in the Russian republic of Chechnya for 17 years, is known for his steadfast support of President Vladimir Putin. He claimed that he has mobilized thousands of troops to assist Putin’s efforts in Ukraine. Furthermore, Kadyrov expressed his ambition to deploy the gun-mounted Cybertruck to the frontlines of the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. He stated, “Based on such excellent characteristics, the Cybertruck will soon be sent to the area of the special military operation, where it will be in demand in the appropriate conditions.”

The Tesla Cybertruck, an electric pickup truck unveiled by Musk’s company in 2019, began its production in the previous year. As a notable figure in contemporary entrepreneurship, Elon Musk, currently recognized by Forbes as the wealthiest individual globally, owns both Tesla and SpaceX. In recent years, Musk has cultivated a contentious public persona, particularly following his acquisition of the social media platform Twitter, now named X.

Since taking control of X, Musk has actively pursued the augmentation of free speech policies, rolling back numerous content moderation rules. Additionally, he has endorsed former President Donald Trump’s candidacy for the 2024 presidential election.

Tesla has not yet provided an official comment regarding Kadyrov’s video and statements.
