    I'm from chechnya and work as content manager, so I understand your struggle of no one wanting to be on camera, it's literally 98% people don't want attention )

    I lived in Grozny two months later, 5 years after the war, and of course the echo of the war was fresh in my memory when the plane landed at the airport. But my idea of the Chechen people completely turned upside down when we started working and communicating. Honestly, after a day in the circle of Chechens, I felt safer and more comfortable than anywhere else.

    Delighted to see Grozny beautifully rebuilt & thriving.  Gives us all great optimism for the future of war-torn cities & villages in Ukraine, Syria, Afghanistan, etc.  We, the people, will have peace when we are each peaceful in our hearts & lives. We are learning to value life & joy above all else.  Thank you for this visit, seeing for yourself what life is like here.

    I'm muslim. Usually, I don't know much about Russian culture. Your channel helps me get to know more Muslim Chechnya. Alhamdullillah. Love Chechnya.

    Love from Pakistan 🇵🇰. Have been there in Chechnya 3 time. Not only Grozny but also some remote parts of Chechnya. And I found it absolutely safe and hospitality was enormous.
