Putin's defence minister Sergei Shoigu has had a 'massive heart attack not from natural causes' and TWENTY generals 'have been arrested' over bungled invasion

Shoigu is thought to have suffered a heart attack possibly caused by foul play

Russia's defence minister, 66, has been a close ally of Putin ever since 2012

He was a mainstay early in the invasion but has been largely absent for weeks

....hoigu, 66, is now thought to be in intensive care after suffering 'a massive heart attack' which 'could not have occurred due to natural causes', according to Leonid Nevzlin, suggesting Putin's longtime ally may have been the subject of an assassination attempt ordered by his boss.

Shoigu was last seen on yesterday on a video conference with Putin and other ministers about the development of the Arctic but did not speak, and there is speculation the Kremlin is using previously recorded footage of Shoigu since his withdrawal from public appearances weeks ago.

... 20 Russian generals have been arrested in Russia and charged with embezzling up to 10 billion dollars allocated to the war effort in Ukraine.

..the total embezzlement of funds for the preparation of [taking over the leadership of Ukraine]. Since 2014, about $10 billion (USD) allocated by Putin for the preparation of the blitzkrieg has been stolen.'

Supersonic 7.62x54 coming from a Mosin-Nagant will do that to a body.

Round numbers are always a lie.

Russian men tend to die young, from excessive smoking and drinking. Heart attacks are common.

“20 Russian generals have been arrested in Russia and charged with embezzling up to 10 billion dollars allocated to the war effort in Ukraine.”

Similar to accepting kickbacks from defense contractors in Moscow on the Potomac? Naaa, that would never happen with ‘our military leaders’. You think?

Pretty much everything coming out on all sides of the Russia - Ukraine thing is BS. Hard to know if any of this is true.

It’s not only in the DM.

And Shoigu has disappeared.

Btw, the belarus invasions were rejected by the Belarusian military who flat out refused to commit suicide.

The Russians don’t learn from history any better than the rest of us. They should have come up with a permanent solution to Putin years ago.

Right! If you were to go to the Ukraine now you’d find it a wonderful stress free country. You could visit the gorgeous seaport city of Mariupol and savor the fine dining at its renown seafood restaurants. You’d learn that all this is fake news is just a digital MSN video cooked up in Disney studios.

Umm, the Ruble has maintained it's relative strength against foreign curriencies because the prime interest rate in Russia is 17%.

That maintains the value of the currency, but chokes the domestic economy.
