President of Ichkeria

The President of Ichkeria, formally the President of the Chechen Republic of Ichkeria (Chechen: Нохчийн Республикан Ичкерин Президент, romanized: Noxçiyn Respublikan Içkerin Prezident; Russian: Президент Чеченской Республики Ичкерия, romanizedPrezident Chechenskoy Respubliki Ichkeriya) was the head of the Chechen Republic of Ichkeria from 1991 to 2007, the Islamic republic that existed until the victory of the Russian Federation in the Second Chechen War.

This is a list of presidents of the Chechen Republic of Ichkeria, a de facto independent state that controlled most of the former Checheno-Ingush ASSR from 1991 to 2000 (see First Chechen War, Second Chechen War). Ichkeria's last presidential elections were held in January 1997.

On 31 October 2007, the separatist news agency Chechenpress reported that Dokka Umarov, the president of Ichkeria, had proclaimed the Caucasus Emirate and declared himself its Emir, thereby abolishing the Chechen Republic of Ichkeria and its presidency. This move was denounced by parts of the Chechen exile movement. Akhmed Zakayev was subsequently appointed Prime Minister of the Chechen Republic of Ichkeria's government-in-exile.
