The Center for Counteracting Disinformation at the National Security and Defense Council reports that Russian President Vladimir Putin still has not fired Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu because he does not want to do it at such a difficult time. This is noted in the message of the press service of the CPD.

Moreover, according to experts, it was Shoigu’s go-ahead in the temporarily occupied territories of the Kherson region that the struggle for “power” intensified, which continues between the proteges of the minister himself and the FSB officers. The last ones are being avenged for the searches and the fact that there was no warning about repeated attacks by the defenders on the barracks.

It is also known that the “Shoigu group” is conducting a PR campaign for budgetary funds, which is designed to shift the responsibility for the failure of the war against Ukraine from the minister to the FSB officers. The latter, in turn, publish facts about the unpreparedness of officials of the Ministry of Defense.
