The Baza channel on Telegram published a viral video among Russian internet users. This recording captures the argument on one of the beaches in Russian-occupied Mariupol.
It all started with a Chechen tourist who decided to drive a huge Lexus onto the beach. The Chechen drove his car practically to the water's edge, enraging the Russian beachgoers.
Although a fight was avoided, emotions were high. The gathered Russians shouted at the Chechen to "learn to drive like a human," to which the man replied that "nobody can force him to leave the beach."
It is not known how the argument ended. However, the famous recording reached Apti Alaudinov. Alaudinov is a Chechen military officer, advisor to Ramzan Kadyrov and head of the Akhmat special forces paramilitary unit. He is also considered a potential successor to Kadyrov.
The dignitary scolded the tourist and apologized to "everyone who felt offended." He also made scandalous comments about Ukrainians, calling them "Nazis."
I am sure that the matter will be appropriately assessed, and this man will face consequences. If this man had participated in liberating the Donbas settlements from Nazis and had seen his comrades dying nearby, he would not have done such a thing, said the man who is Kadyrov's right-hand man.
