  • “Russia suffered many humiliating defeats, like in late 2022. And I think that the dismissal is probably linked to the desire to integrate economic and defence policy more closely.”
    Economic resistant to Western sanctions have been more successful than Russia’s military says associate fellow at RUSI, Dr Samuel Ramani.

    Of course he was promoted after a decade of strategic stagnation. No one expected him to take more than a sliver of neighboring land and spend so little. What a bargain!

      Shoigu wasn’t a military man either. He never served in the military before being appointed minister. This fellow is being brought in because of the vast monetary problems the military has had under Shoigu. Additionally, there is finally some concern about individual troops, something Shoigu has never understood. As is everything in Russia, it’s more complex than it seems.

    The Ukrainian commander responsible for the northeastern Kharkiv frontline has been replaced after Russia launched a surprise offensive, a military spokesperson said on Monday.
    Nazar Voloshyn told RBC-Ukraine media that the decision to appoint Brigadier General Mykhailo Drapatyi to the position was taken on May 11. He gave no reason for the decision.
    It comes amid reports that Ukrainian defences were “built in the wrong place” to halt Russia’s Kharkiv offensive.😂

    A promotion to the security council. Russian forces withdrew because of a peace agreement 2022 that got ditched at the very last moment (help from Boris). since then there has been a war of attrition, that continues, if it wasnt effective we wouldnt need to keep sending weapons. The Russian economy is the fastest growing economy in Europe, and out produces the west in key industries. Russia is now considered to have the most powerful army in the world.

    Putin is in his new term as President! it is time to shuffle his cabinet and Shoigu requested for retirement a few years ago but Putin asked him to stay! And he is now promoted into the core part of the security committee, who sacked him? Who knows he might be the next president??? The media should not get so excited about!

    Pootin’s regime is a weird one, as most dictatorships. Apparently, Shoigu is more of a logistics guy, at least in a broader sense.
    The new dude is also an economist, which makes a lot of sense. If Pootin isnt a complete idiot, he realizes that the only way the West can truly break him, is if sustained economic pressure comes into effect. The west can break him militarily any day, but both parts realize that implies ww3-noone is interested in that. IMO it makes a lot of sense to place an economist in Shoigu’s role to beef up what is left of Russian economy. The Russians are learning by doing. Its going to be interesting to see who is going to replace Gerasimov, too.
