Minister Shoigu said, “The reason this plan failed was because Russian soldiers showed their dedication.” are doing Thank you to the soldiers,” he said.
Shoigu is the person who, together with Russian chief of staff Valery Gerasimov, demanded the dismissal of Yevgeny Prigozhin, head of the Wagner Group.
He argued that the mutiny was aimed at destabilizing Russia but failed because of military loyalties, and had no effect on the situation at the front in Ukraine.
Meanwhile, Chief of the General Staff Gerasimov, who had not appeared in public since the armed rebellion, was not seen in the photo of the meeting.
