Putin Removes Russia's Defence Minister, Replaces him with an Economist | Vantage with Palki Sharma
Russia's Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu has been removed in a significant move by President Vladimir Putin. Putin has replaced Shoigu, once known to be his trusted ally, with Andrey Belousov, a revered economist and the current deputy prime minister for the Kremlin. This reshuffle in the Russia defence cabinet comes as the country continues its offensive against Ukraine. While addressing the shift, the Kremlin has said that "it is very important to integrate the economy of the security sector to the economy of the whole country. Integrate, so that it is in accordance with the dynamic of the current time." As his nomination was announced, Belousov spoke on the adversaries faced by Russian soldiers fighting the war in Ukraine, and discussed wartime benefits for these military personnel. Does this high-profile shake-up in President Putin's cabinet signal towards his shifting strategies in the war in Ukraine? Palki Sharma tells you on Vantage.

They have truly streamlined the procedure... Shoigu will be promoted with an emphasis on the Russian military industrial complex, which the western media has not identified as a national security adviser... As a national security council adviser, he has grown closer to Putin... whereas the new guy is an economist technocrat who will bring more money for military expansion by relieving Shoigu of administrative duties!!! As usual, the Western media portrays this as a setback; nonetheless, this is an excellent step in the midst of a major NATO escalation threat.

No amount of shifting people around is going to help Putler in his misadventure in Ukraine. As the Russian people begin to suffer more and more as a result of his PERVERSE behaviour, he will eventually not be able to control the population anymore. Just a small example. When a civilian airliner lands, it has to use its brakes to bring the plane to a stop. Sometimes because of brake failure, the pilot has to resort to engine braking. But what you now have is that because of sanctions by the west, Aeroflot cannot get brake sparerparts, as a result of which they have to REGULARLY resort to engine braking, which puts a strain on the plane. As a result of this, a number of planes have to be grounded, which not only affects the airline's performance. but Russian travellers as well, and as time goes on, things are only going to get worse.
