In the past decade, Ramzan Kadyrov has become an increasingly familiar name to those outside of Russia, partially due to his increasing political prominence and role as a major supporter of Vladimir Putin in his invasion of Ukraine, and partially due to his social media presence and association with high-profile athletes and entertainers. We chart his rise to power, from rising out of the shadow of his politically controversial father, to ruling current-day Chechnya with an iron fist, and reaping the subsequent political and financial rewards.
