(ANSA) - MOSCOW, FEBRUARY 13 - "I don't feel offended by the Pope, he is too old to take offense at him".
The Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov said this in an interview with Russian television broadcast by the Ria Novosti agency, returning to the pontiff's statements on the cruelty shown in the conflict in Ukraine by Chechens and Buryats.
"Fighters are the best people because they sacrifice themselves for others - said Kadyrov - but he can't understand this. He lived all his life somewhere in a monastery or I don't know where, and in my opinion he forgot what happens in the world, what is life".
