Putin Defends New Russian Defence Minister Pick; ‘Belousov Knows What Needs To Be Done’
Russian President Vladimir Putin revealed the reasons behind appointing long-time economic advisor Andrey Belousov as the country's new defence minister. Putin said, "Belousov will be able to properly steward the country's substantial defence spending and ensure it helps the civilian economy, rather than detracts from it." In a surprise move on May 12, Putin replaced his long-time ally Sergei Shoigu as defence minister amid the Ukraine war. Watch

Wrong: Shoigu is head of the Security Council. That is not a demotion it’s a move sideways to a new government position.
Amazing if this happened in the west then shoigu would have been referred to as having been promoted not "axed".
I love the way he sits when he talks. The man I can go to war for
Shoigu is in a better position because his new job is to advice Putin on national security matters, and he will be the head of the military industrial complex commission. He will have a say on the MIC programs. He could use the technology of the MIC to improve the national security. I think that's been Putin's plan since he performed so well as defense minister. Just saying.
Shoigu is promoted not demoted. He goes to join the Deputy Chairman of Security as secretary. Russia do not run a Western style government.
I don’t understand why it’s shocking to have cabinets shuffles. It’s been done in the past during President Putin’s spell as President and as Vice President in the past 20 or so odd years. It’s simply that the new civilian minister in charge of defence is more suited for both an economic and military role in spearheading a war economy that is currently in progress within the SMO. ‘Nothing to see here’.

Belousov has a history that includes working for the Russian weapons development board so whilst unlike most previous Ministers of Defense, including Shoigu, he is well placed to understand which weapons systems are worth spending money on as well as those that have civilian application spin off and export potential. It is a typical smart move by Putin and Shoigu who along with Lavarov who has wanted to retire since before the 2014 coup but was persuaded by Putin to stay on will be happy with this move which will give him more time to follow his passion for fishing.

Face it, Russia's arms exports are becoming but a distant dream. They were in decline even before Russia started fomenting trouble in Ukraine, to say nothing of the actual invasion putting a complete stop to them. High-tech arms need trustworthy suppliers, and Russia isn't one for a variety of reasons. China is poised to take over the low-tech market, too. Arms manufacturers the world over should remember Putin with a gift basket for leaving the international arms market, _and_ for creating almost insatiable demand.
Because a 3 day SMO is in its 3rd year😂

Naming a non-military person as Minister of Defense is a shocking move. Usually the choice is someone with military experience.
Wont take long before Shoigu falls out of a window.
Hello again. Our current Finance Minister in the out going Cabinet, owing to the General Elections, served as the Defence Minister in her previous Parliamentary term.
Belousov looks American… The defence stuff must be more about the spending than military strategies. The strategies are made on a lower level, I guess.

He's been appointed as an economist to steal even more money for the war from the citizens, but they are soooooo stupid they will let it happen! This is a desperate measure from the dwarf as the fascist economy crumbles 👍🏻
To integrate AI and human chipping in the military and then into civilian uses for tracking and banking.
Head of NATO Jens Stoltenberg is a financial analyst
I have a sense of feeling that shoigu might declare coup against putin in future. Who knows? 🤷
The new Defence Minister although being an economist, doesn't need to know about modern warfare strategy. That responsibility is being well taken care of by capable Russian generals such as General Gerasimov.
Best leader in the world today
King of democracy😢😢😢
Glory to Mother Russia ❤❤❤
One thing I've not heard anyone mention is that Shoigu's assistant was arrested and how it affects Shoigu. Moving him to another job helps insulate Shoigu from the fact that his assistant was corrupt.
Everyone knew Shoigu was incapable, as is nearly the entire Russian army. It's just the numbers, the huge number of casualties Russia is willing to accept, nearing half a million allready and counting...only 2 days ago Russia lost more men on one day then ever since the illigitimate invasion...
