Discussions about the “regrouping” of Russians on the left bank of the Kherson region continue unabated. This was preceded by personnel rotations in the command of the enemy group “Dnepr”.

The head of the Sitting Russia Foundation, Olga Romanova, told Channel 24 that the new commander of the occupiers, Colonel General of the Airborne Forces Mikhail Teplinsky, is opposed to the military leadership of Russia. He can repeat the fate of Sergei Surovikin.

“We are now all closely following the fate of General Teplinsky, because his conflict with Shoigu and Gerasimov is obvious. <...> In this tangle, of course, this general is aiming for at least Gerasimov’s place. Gossips arise about this from time to time.” ,” Romanova noted.

According to her, there is only one force left in Russia – the army. Since its overall leadership is too inept, the military's bayonets can turn anywhere . Perhaps we will observe a new rebellion following the example of Yevgeny Prigozhin.

“It is quite possible, especially since a holy place is never empty. And Prigozhin did not appear out of nowhere, and so did Surovikin. Now General Teplinsky. I think that more similar figures will arise, because the war continues,” Romanova explained.

The struggle for power intensifies in Russia

Putin’s circle is interested in Shoigu and Gerasimov retaining their positions as Minister of Defense and Chief of the General Staff, respectively. They are predictable – they are just as corrupt as everyone else.

Therefore, most likely, Teplinsky and other talented generals have no chance.

“This struggle is intensifying – it is very interesting,” Romanova summed up.
