GRAY ZONE

In connection with the carried out attack by Ukraine on the “Crimean Bridge”, the reshuffles planned for several weeks in the Ministry of Defense, which were supposed to end next week, were shifted, the result was the resignation of Shoigu and Gerasimov.

Of the replacements for the positions of Minister of Defense and Chief of the General Staff of the Russian Defense Ministry, Dyumin, Matovnikov, Yevkurov and Tsalikov were considered.

The main bet was made on the alignment: Dyumin - Minister of Defense, Matovnikov - NGSH. Both personalities have good reviews from the officers of the General Staff, in particular the MTR. Tsalikov was removed from the discussion due to the lack of managerial and team experience, and was also negatively recommended by a "note" through the state security agencies due to questions about the state of income of both himself and his family.
