Using "Oreshnik" missiles could force the West to negotiate.

Axar.az reports that Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov made this statement on his Telegram channel.

"Like tens of thousands of soldiers on the front line, I have long awaited such a declaration from the Supreme Commander. The West sits in warm and relatively calm places. It's time for them to feel what real war is like. It's also time to strike hard at the targets of those states that are afraid to openly admit their participation in the war," Kadyrov emphasized.

He further added that medium- and short-range missiles cannot be used without the involvement of manufacturing countries:

"I’m confident that such a response will immediately lead to hints of negotiations. However, when sitting at the table, it should be with only one demand: unconditional compliance with all of Russia's terms, without discussions or concessions. Russia must showcase the full lethal power of its long-range weapons so that not only Ukrainian 'Nazis' but the entire West trembles in fear and despair before our advanced military developments. They wanted a real war with Russia? Let them have their fill of it."

Notably, Russia launched attacks on Ukraine yesterday using "Oreshnik" ballistic missiles.
