News Shoigu will resign: who does Putin propose to appoint in his place? by alex 12.05.2024 written by alex 12.05.2024 52 Short version of the news Putin will replace Shoigu as Minister of Defense/Collage 24 Channel On May 12, personnel changes took place in the Kremlin. Russian dictator Vladimir Putin has decided to replace the current head of the Ministry of Defense Sergei Shoigu. Russian media reported this. These changes are taking place as part of the reappointment of the Russian government after Putin “won the Russian presidential election,” reports 24 Channel. Putin decided to replace Shoigu in the Russian Ministry of Defense Russian propagandists said that Vladimir Putin has already chosen a candidate to replace Sergei Shoigu as Russian Defense Minister. The Russian dictator proposed Andrei Belousov, who previously served as the first deputy chairman of the Russian government. In addition, Putin also fired Nikolai Patrushev from the post of Secretary of the Russian Security Council. The decree of the Russian dictator says that this is due to “Patrushev’s transfer to another job.” At the same time, Putin decided to appoint Shoigu himself to Patrushev’s position. That is, the secretary of the Russian Security Council. Putin's press secretary Dmitry Peskov also commented on the appointment of Belousov as head of the Russian Ministry of Defense. He noted that Putin decided that the ministry “would be headed by a civilian, because the department should be open to innovation and advanced ideas.” Peskov also cynically hinted that the appointment of Belousov to the post of head of the Ministry of Defense will not change the “system of coordinates in the military component of the department.” What is known about Andrey Belousov Belousov has held various government positions since 2020, being in such Russian ministries as the Ministry of Economic Development, the Ministry of Transport, the Federal Antimonopoly Service and the Federal Accreditation Service . He is also a Doctor of Economics. His responsibilities included shaping key aspects of socio-economic development, investment policy, financial market regulation, corporate governance and bankruptcy, exports and foreign economic activity , as well as development institutions. After Russia's major invasion of Ukraine, Belousov quickly came under sanctions. The European Union sanctions list identifies him as a long-time member of Putin's inner circle. Indirect evidence of this is his public speeches, where he dared to discuss topics that, as a rule, fall within the competence of the President of Russia. What other personnel changes in the Russian government did Putin propose On this day, Vladimir Putin proposed candidates for most positions in the Russian government. Among the proposed personnel changes were also presented: for the post of Minister of Internal Affairs – Vladimir Aleksandrovich Kolokoltsev; for the post of Minister for Civil Defense, Emergency Situations and Disaster Relief – Alexander Vyacheslavovich Kurenkov ; for the post of Minister of Foreign Affairs – Sergey Viktorovich Lavrov; for the post of Minister of Justice – Konstantin Anatolyevich Chuychenko; for the position of director of the foreign intelligence service – Sergey Evgenievich Naryshkin; for the position of director of the federal security service – Alexander Bortnikov Vasilyevich; for the position of director of the federal service of the National Guard troops – Zolotov Viktor Vasilievich; for the position of director of the federal service security – Dmitry Viktorovich Kochnev; for the position of head of the main department of special programs of the President – Alexander Leonidovich Linz; the position of chairman of the Accounts Chamber is Boris Yuryevich Kovalchuk. According to Russian propagandists, Russian senators will hold consultations on the candidates proposed by Putin at committee meetings on May 13 and at a meeting of the Federation Council on May 14. 0 comment 0 FacebookTwitterPinterestEmail alex previous post “We don’t want to hide deserters who fled the country”: in Switzerland they started talking about the return of Ukrainians next post Putin appointed Shoigu and Patrushev to new positions You may also like War in the Middle East: 134 Ukrainians evacuated... 02.10.2024 There are optimistic and pessimistic scenarios: will Russia... 02.10.2024 Reserve IDF Lieutenant Colonel Reveals How Israel Fended... 02.10.2024 Shooting of soldiers in the Pokrovsky direction: VoxCheck... 01.10.2024 Iran Launches Powerful Missile Strike on Israel: How... 01.10.2024 We are working to speed up the decision... 01.10.2024 Following the example of Japan and Korea: Lithuania... 01.10.2024 Priority will be given to domestic production: Estonia... 01.10.2024 New NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte names Russian... 01.10.2024 Mark Rutte – the new NATO Secretary General:... 01.10.2024 Leave a Comment Cancel Reply Save my name, email, and website in this browser for the next time I comment.
