Russian President Vladimir Putin has made a significant move by replacing Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu and appointing economist Andrei Belousov as his successor while assigning Shoigu as the Secretary of the Security Council. The reshuffle coincides with Putin's fifth presidential term and the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, hinting at a potential power struggle within the military.
The abrupt change follows speculation from the USA about restrictions on Shoigu's role. Despite these changes, Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and other key officials remain in their positions, emphasizing the impact of the Ukraine conflict on Russia's leadership dynamics.
