In a video shared Wednesday on Twitter by BBC journalist Francis Scarr, Kadyrov says that the "issue of Ukraine is closed" and that he is "interested in Poland," according to a translation of his comments.
"After Ukraine, if we're given the command, in six seconds we'll show you what we're capable of," Kadyrov said.
Kadyrov is not the only Putin ally who has ramped up rhetoric against Poland in recent weeks.
Oleg Morozov, a member of the Russian parliament and a top member of Putin's political party, United Russia, suggested earlier this month that Poland should be "in first place in the queue for denazification after Ukraine," according to an English translation of a Telegram post.
Morozov did not specify why he believed Poland was in need of "denazification."
