A new rebellion. Why Putin releases his most capable generals

Immediately after the resignation of the commander of the 58th Army of the Russian Federation, Major-General Ivan Popov removed the commander of the Tula 106th Division of Major-General Vladimir Seliverstov from his post. Officially, a report for the release of Ivan Popov was a report on the name of the Chief of General Staff Valery Gerasimov on the state of affairs in the Zaporizhzhya direction of the front. In response, the commander was accused of blackmail and panic.

History has been continued in the Russian political environment. State Duma deputy Lieutenant General Andriy Gurulev, who at one time also commanded the 58 Army (2012-2016), published Popov's address to combat comrades. That is, the material that was created exclusively for internal use without further spread, came into public space.

In response to the action of Gurulev, the first deputy chairman of the Council of the Russian Federation Andriy Turchak stated that his colleague had arranged a political show. He also noted that "Popov's conscience is pure, and the homeland should be proud of such as he.

" It should be noted that Turchak-the coordinator of the working group of the so-called "his", in the media is called the representative of the "Kiriyenko-Kovalchuk group", which also includes Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin and co-founder of PEC "Wagner" Yevgeny Prigogin. Currently, Russian pro -war publications are discussing rumors that Popov is being sent to serve in Syria.

Seliverstov's identity is well known to the domestic forces of Ukraine's defense-it was his 106 airborne division to Kiev at the beginning of a full-scale invasion in February 2022. The personnel of the division is involved in numerous military crimes in Bucha, Irpen and Gostomel. Already in September 2022, the 137th parachute regiment of the 106th PDD of the enemy was broken in the battles near Kharkiv region raisins. At the same time, the commander of the regiment Pavel Krivova was liquidated.

Actually, the unit was in direct subordination of Seliverstov. But in early June 2023, Seliverstov was still awarded the next military rank of Major General. So why was the decision to remove the commander now? Currently, the official reason for its removal is hidden. According to numerous Russian thematic telegrams-channels, the "unyielding character" of the general and his ability not to remain silent, but to defend his position and issues of personnel could be the reason.

By the way, in addition to Seliverstov, the commander of the 7th Guards Airborne Assault Division of the Airborne troops of the Armed Forces of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation General Alexander Kornev also lost his position. It seems that the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation will have further personnel permutations.

Currently, rumors about the possibility of removing and arrest of Colonel-General Mikhail Teplinsky, the actual commander of the entire Russian occupation group in Ukraine. However, the commander does not agree on Russian paratroopers, who have already publicly voiced their position. The recently widespread audio states that they are determined to star from combat positions and "become a wall in defense of their bat.

" Military expert Ivan Stupak suggests that a new stage of personnel cleaning of generals and senior officers began in the Kremlin offices. At the same time, the events are so dynamic that evening arrangements in the morning are no longer operating. "The Kremlin is looking for the most loyal generals and senior officers and afraid of hammering commanders who have their opinion and are capable of creative approaches. There should be only general generals around Putin.

All this is very good for Ukraine if refined parquet generals remain in the command It is unusual and creative to think, "he said in a comment on focus. Stupak mentions the history of Colonel-General Alexander Lapin, who commanded the group of occupation troops "Center". He was released with a scandal after the Armed Forces was given out his troops from Liman of Donetsk region.

Lapina was harassing the propaganda media, personally, Chechnya Kadyrov, the head of Chechnya and founder of Wagner PEC Yevgeny Prigogin. Already in half a year, Lapin patched out "saboteurs" from the Belgorod region. Earlier, Focus has already wrote that the unsuccessful rebellion of Yevgeny Prigogine made it possible for Putin not only to be loyal to the founder of the Wagner PEC, but also to those who assisted him with his organization.
