The Chechen president Akhmad Kadyrov, whose seven months in the perilous post as Moscow's chosen head of state ended yesterday with his death, aged 52, in a bomb blast, was reviled as a quisling by the Chechnya guerrilla commanders, and by his predecessor as president, Aslan Maskhadov.
Kadyrov, in turn, despised Maskhadov, and was jealous of his standing among the Chechens, although Kadyrov's brutish son, Ramzan, recently claimed to be putting out feelers aimed at reaching a settlement with Maskhadov, a move he said was sabotaged by Russian intelligence.
Kadyrov became one of the key figures in modern Chechnya by virtue of the tactics of President Vladimir Putin, who badly needed a loyal Chechen to do his bidding, while seeking to undercut Maskhadov's status and also enabling the Russian leader to distance himself from the Chechnya war when it became politically expedient.

According to Kadyrov's proposal Moscow would withdraw troops and then appoint a consultative body, subordinate to Kadyrov, to draft a new Chechen constitution and electoral regulations, to be followed by the election of a new Chechen leader.
Kadyrov claims that Maskhadov had prior knowledge of Basaev's plan to conquer Dagestan and use it as a staging ground for the invasion of Azerbaijan.
Kadyrov points out that the invasions of Dagestan were a violation of Chechnya's peace treaty with Russia, as much as they were a violation of Islamic sharia, and suggests that insurgent leaders should have been handed over to Russia.
