Just the day after Shoigu left the Ministry of Defense, another Russian lieutenant general was charged with treason by Putin. It is reported that the alleged head of the Russian Defense Ministry's Main Directorate of Personnel, Yuri Kuznetsov, was suddenly arrested from his home by Putin's investigative forces while he was still asleep.

This can also be seen Putin's determination to investigate and fight corruption in the Russian Ministry of Defense, and as soon as the importance of the front line is over, Putin immediately launched a liquidation of the major departments of the Russian Ministry of Defense, and this shot was first started by the arrest of Ivanov, the deputy minister of defense of Russia, on charges of embezzlement, and then the replacement of Defense Minister Shoigu to the security advisory department with no real power, and now Kuznetsov of the Ministry of Personnel.
At the same time, with the departure of Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu, the next thing can only be a greater change of blood for the entire Ministry of Defense, but some people are curious, whether this Kuznetsov is guilty of treason? Or are they just trumped-up accusations?
The current lieutenant general of the Russian Eighth Bureau of Staff, his previous political experience has been in important positions in the Russian Intelligence Bureau for about 13 years, which also indicates that the Russian lieutenant general has a lot of time to contact and leak Russia's confidential information, so Putin's accusation of "treason" has become quite reasonable, but this also indicates that once the charge is confirmed, the final outcome of the Russian lieutenant general is afraid that it will be difficult to die well.
However, combined with this time, it is not difficult to understand why Putin suddenly announced the reorganization of the cabinet during this year's term.
After about 20 years of development, the core of the Russian military bloc headed by Shoigu has already formed a force in Russia that should not be underestimated, and this intricate force undoubtedly cannot stimulate all of Russia's war potential, but has made Russia make a lot of sacrifices in the Russian-Ukrainian war.
The Russian high-level and slow response that were killed one after another in the initial war is the best proof that Russia could achieve the greatest result with the least war damage by crushing Ukraine through rapid mobility, but Russia missed this opportunity, which allowed the Western world led by the United States to find an opportunity to support, thus dragging Russia into the abyss of war.
But even if Russia's Ministry of Defense has become a cancer, but the direct announcement of the liquidation, it will inevitably not have an impact on the high-ranking officials at all levels of front-line operations, so the statement of the reshuffle of the cabinet to Putin, who has attacked the Ministry of Defense, also has a feeling of overt and covert, in this liquidation, only Shoigu, as the Minister of Defense, was transferred to the security adviser, and other large and small Russia ended in arrest.
These are all cancerous people who belong to the Ministry of Defense, and now that Shoigu, who is the biggest refuge, has fallen at Putin's feet, the next reckoning will only come more violently.
But this can also be seen that Putin, who has been in office for more than 20 years, has gradually become mature and stable, and his grasp of the political situation has become more handy.
Obviously, Putin's attack hit the main artery of the Ministry of Defense, and in the name of reorganizing the cabinet, the reason is quite sufficient, but this does not mean that the Russian Ministry of Defense is very wronged.
In this Russian-Ukrainian war, Russia fell into the abyss of stalemate, as the Ministry of Defense Shoigu and others can be said to be unable to escape the blame, coupled with the long-term model solidification, so that this group of people began to use their positions to accumulate wealth and sell state secrets, it can be said that Putin's reform and liquidation are quite supported in the whole of Russia, which can also see how unpopular the Russian Ministry of Defense is.
