Mucus Maximum and Rooters.com will of course spin their propaganda, but they don’t know any better than anyone else what is happening - nor do they care. All that matters is cheap SPIN.

What is known - Shoigu is close friends with Putin and is nearly as old as him. Shoigu is one of the most popular public figures in Russia, always serving in the Army and serving whoever is President, but avoiding political pronouncements.

It is also a fact that he is nearly 70 years old, and asked to retire in the past, but given coming war in Ukraine, stayed at his post.

What’s more likely is that jow the war is 2+ years in, showing progress, and Putin has won election for another six years. So he has chosen to retire now.

Translation: “We’re going broke!”

Dmitry Peskov, Putin’s spokesman, says the Kremlin wanted to appoint an economic official to run the defense ministry after Russia’s security budget ballooned to 6.6 per cent of gross domestic product.

“This demands special attention,” he told reporters.

Sergei Shoigu, the Russian politician and military officer, has never served in the army. He was nevertheless appointed defense minister in 2012.

I’m beginning to realize Putin will be dead soon.

Enlighten us as to what will be cause of Putin's demise.

You're becoming more clownish by the day. Your posts reek of desperation.

More BS. In reality this is what happened. Btw, Russia will spend $71billion on defense this year. NATO will spend $1.4Trillion. Russia is still kicking NATO’s ass because of moves like this. It’s like making Ike chairman of the MIC.

▪️ Sergei Shoigu, who headed the Defense Ministry, was proposed to be appointed as secretary of the Russian Security Council; he will also oversee the work of the Federal Service for Military-Technical Cooperation and become the president’s deputy in the commission on the military-industrial complex, Kremlin Spokesman Dmitri Peskov said.

▪️ The Kremlin cited the need to appoint a civilian as a head for the Defense Ministry to foster an environment “open to innovations and advanced ideas” to explain Putin’s decision to reshuffle the ministry.

▪️ In addition, Peskov noted that it is very important to integrate the economy of the military bloc into the country’s economy to match the dynamics.

And, we hate Zeepers that spew non-stop propaganda from the Biden regime and Deep State, both of which are doing the bidding of WEF globalists like George Soros.

You are the one siding with the enemy from within.
