Putin Stuns With New Defence Minister Choice; Shoigu Replaced By Economist | Kremlin Says…
Russian President Vladimir Putin shocked everyone by replacing Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu with civilian Andrei Belsouv who has a background in economics. The changes are set to be approved by Russian parliamentarians. The shock move comes two years into Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. The Kremlin has also explained why it chose a civilian for the role of managing Russian defence forces. Watch this video for more information.

Shoigu shouldn't trust anyone wanting to show him the view from a high rise.
Shoigu was just placed at a less strenuous post due to probably age and health related issues. As this conflict rqges on into it's third year, terror attacks will grow so now you don't just need military minds but strategical. If you can stretch a few dollars, redirect excess funds into your regular industries to also benefit soldiers ie.sowing military garments it will help boost GDP. 4D Chess
Shoigu Poison. Prison. Plane Crash. Hotel Window. ??? 😂
As shown in a British news site Telegraph, Ukrainian troops fleeing Karkiv with heavy shelling going on ,if you are an Ukrainian influencer you would ignore Zelensky's ability and describe the Change of Russian defense minister as a failure of Putin and Russia,150000 Ukrainian men of fighting age have left Ukraine illegally maybe they dont believe in their country
unstopable removal of millitary chief in russia😅
Good move for the war is also an economic issue and a man with an economic background will enhance the quality and quantity and expertise that's relevant to the ongoing success and growth and development of the advancement of the future of the country.... well done..🎉🎉 surely Shoigu have done an excellent job and will be promoted by the Kremlin.🎉🎉 Personally i think Shoigu will be the head of the African projects.

What I am surprised is to know that Lavtov is convinced to keep his post. He was supposed to retire upon end of Putin's previous term.

Shoigu was also VERY effective at rebuilding the Russian military and getting rid of the vast majority of corruption that was still around back a decade ago. He also wanted to retire after the last election.
Shoigu is 68 years old. He has certainly recommended someone in his place whom he believes will be a good successor. He already has the right to more rest and less stress. He certainly doesn't want to end up reading what someone writes to him and then taking a nap during the conference.
Thank you. Very informative move.
The important thing is why Patrushev is being separated?
Shoigu has asked for retirement for a long time and this was agreed for one year ago.
Shoigu ha been at this for awhile now, Maybe Putin figured he needed a break. He was under alot of stress. Time for fresh a change. He is a Russian hero.
Strategic move to shift for a war economy!
The previous guy was promoted and directly to Putih military industry complex to face NATO. The new minister is to deal will one enemy next door 🚪 ❤🎉
This signals the need for great efficiency on all levels.
Kind of weird as Shoigu started to improve and kick ass in Ukraine, but again it's the soldiers who fight the battles they just need better guidance.
Shoigu was not a military man as well.
Am I the only person far from Russia to hear this as if Shoigu was fired. Instead it was reshuffle operation that even set him to higher position. It’s been broadcast in the west as if shoigu has bn fired😅

Yet another smart move on the part of President Putin as he has been so.
Putin is a knowledgable leader and political genius. Whatever his decision is, he will make sure there are no holes left by vacating ministers.

What shock move? Shoigu wanted to retire already after the PREVIOUS election. Giving him a backseat/lower stress position keeps him around, as he's been highly valuable and effective, while still giving him at least a partial retirement.
Makes sense, Shoigu was about to retire two years ago but the SMO prevented it. He was a logistics master, and the Steamroller he built is now doing its job. The war is over and RU has won; NATO can't stop them as the nukes both large and small stand at the ready. Time for a guy who knows how to make money now...
Wish I could watch TV like everyone who keeps up on Russia
Shoigu made a great job
May God bless shoigu
This is not a shock move since both Shogun and Lavarov wanted to retire before the SMO and were persuaded by Putin to stay on. Shogun's main role has been to ramp up the production of weapon systems which he has done a good job at and Belsouv is well fitted for that role and to promote exports of these systems to friendly nations to support the costs of production. Expect another "shock" move with Lavarov though he will be more difficult to replace - the current ambassador to the UN is tipped for the post. Shoigu's new role will give him time for fishing since the Security Council is not in constant session and Putin will probably join him on his fishing trips as he frequently does.
Hooray Getting Down to Business in God's mighty power!
Secretary of the national defence council is a move up, not down
Shoigu basically is being promoted: seniority over the defense minister and Putin’s deputy. A military strategist becoming President Putin’s deputy and having supervisory duties over a defense ministry run by an economist (oversee reconstruction of newly acquired areas). What can I say but a BRILLIANT MASTER STROKE!
