Leaders of a number of power structures of the Russian Federation are trying to get President Vladimir Putin to release Defense Minister Sergey Shoigu and Chief of the General Staff Valery Gerasimov from their posts. According to "Detq", the British "Bloomberg" news agency informs about this, referring to its sources.

It is reported that the military also wants Putin to intensify combat operations in Ukraine, in particular to announce a general conscription and introduce martial law. According to the publication, many representatives of the Russian elite are surprised by Putin's weak response to the "Wagner" MRC riot and the fact that Putin could not punish its leader, Yevgeny Prigozhin.

It is said that this has worried Russian officials in terms of possible scandals at a high level.

According to five people familiar with the situation, hardliners in the Russian power structures want to dismiss Shoigu. They propose to introduce martial law in Russia and announce a general conscription.

The media also reports that there are no signs that Putin will dismiss Shoigu and Gerasimov. Instead, the political leadership of Russia "sees a score" with those who actively criticize Shoigu and Gerasimov.

After the armed riot that took place in Russia on June 24, the question of the dismissal of the Minister of Defense and the Chief of the General Staff is regularly discussed. The dismissal of these officials was one of the main demands of Yevgeny Prigozhin, the author of the riot, which he has not been able to achieve so far.
