#6> As the independent Russian news website Meduza notes, Russia’s national anthem—which is 76 beats per minute—falls outside the culture ministry’s range
That seems like a bizarre oversight, I wonder how they’ll deal with it. I guess there will have to be some exception process.

#8To be precise - not Chechnya but Russian Republic of Chechnya under Russian puppet control. There was a moment after collapse of USSR when Chechnya was de facto independent https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chechnya#Chechen_Wars_and_brie...

Apparently Chechnya's own anthem is also slower. As was the music backing the video of the announcement of this new policy that was posted to Telegram.
If this wasn't so mind-bogglingly stupid, it would be funny.
