Jordan Gets Kadyrov Streets

Aug. 5, 2010

Jordan will name a park in its capital, Amman, after slain Chechen President Akhmad Kadyrov, and another street after his son Ramzan Kadyrov, the incumbent Chechen president, the Chechen government said on its web site Thursday.

In return, a street in Grozny will be named after Jordanian King Adbullah II, and a city park will bear the name of his late father, Hussein, said Grozny Mayor Muslim Khuchiyev.
