They want to remove Gerasimov? There are two candidates for the post of Chief of the General Staff

We wrote earlier that Andrei Belousov is not very happy with Valery Gerasimov and does not agree with him on everything. Several sources in the Ministry of Defense claim that the minister is thinking about changing the head of the General Staff.

“Andrei Removich believes that the army can be commanded more effectively. This does not mean that Gerasimov will be removed in the near future. But there are thoughts on this matter,” said one of our interlocutors.

According to him, there are two possible candidates to replace Gerasimov - generals Mikhail Teplinsky and Andrei Mordvichev.

Those around Mordvichev refused to comment on this information to us. Military personnel close to Teplinsky said that “there is no need to rush things.” Interlocutors close to Gerasimov himself also refused to say anything.
