Shoigu was regularly derided by Russian officers and soldiers with direct experience of the war for his ineffective and disconnected leadership, British intelligence said.
The Russian army ridicules the Minister of Defense Sergei Shoigu, who has no military education and experience, and is also removed from the real leadership of the troops in Ukraine. This was reported by the British Ministry of Defense in Twitter on Monday, August 29th.
It is indicated that independent Russian media recently reported that due to the problems Russia is facing in the war against Ukraine, Sergei Shoigu is currently removed from command of the troops, and operational commanders report directly to the President Vladimir Putin about the progress of the war in Ukraine.
According to intelligence, Russian officers and soldiers with first-hand experience of the war regularly criticized Shoigu for his ineffective and disorganized leadership as Russia’s progress stalled.
“Shoigu has long been trying to get rid of his reputation as a man without serious military experience, as he spent most of his career in the construction sector and in the Ministry of Emergency Situations,” wrote British intelligence. .
As you know, in Russia Shoigu was nicknamed “plywood marshal”. Last week, he had to acknowledge the slowdown of the offensive in Ukraine.
The Ukrainian Ministry of Defense then announced that the Armed Forces of Ukraine intended to turn the Russian slowdown into a “reverse offensive”.
