Why is the Ukrainian army running 🏃 backwards?
LOL
Does Shoigu physically survive?
I saw the news on X as it is was breaking less than 10 minutes ago
I wondered how long it would take Mr Zeeper to post it on Free Republic so just for fun I checked here
You didn’t disappoint
Thanks for the laugh
Good to hear that Shoigu’s out - he’s been SLOW WALKING this operation. The new guy, Belousov, seems to be more politically in-tune, and knows that they need to finish the Liberation of Ukraine before the US elections in November.
Word in Moscow is that Hillary and Putin will steal the election again. You do realize it was stolen, right?
Pure embarrassment for Biden, NATO and our Zeepers.
May the effort be eager and humble for eternity!
Who are you kidding Russian troll?
I’m beginning to realize Putin will be dead soon. Killing everyone around you, it catches up. Someone will finally decide he has to go.
I can feel your panick you worthless plant. You do know Russia is pure dirt compared to America.
Um…

NEW: Shoigu has been appointed Secretary of the Russian Security Council - TASS
I don’t hate Russians, what I hate are the communists, anti Americans and Russian trolls for ruining Free Republic.
RT says Shoigu has been promoted to Secretary of the Russian Security Council, replacing Patrushev, age 72.
Several other cabinet shuffling activities are in progress.
Zolotov to be head of the Rosgvardiya
Boris Kovalchuk to the post of head of the Accounts Chamber
Kochnev to the post of director of the Federal Tax Service
Kurenkov as head of the Ministry of Emergency Situations
Lavrov will remain foreign minister
Looks like normal post election reshuffling
