Surovikin's appointment
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.

Commentary by Russian military journalist Boris Rozhin:

[ColonelCassad] Army General Sergei Surovikin became commander-in-chief of the special military operation.

In the 8th month of the special operation, something like Headquarters was created - a single one, headed by a person who is not only treated with respect, but feared. Because the head can fly off the shoulders instantly: Surovikin does not stand on ceremony with stupid commanders.

Yes, there are many questions as to why this has not been done before. There are many questions as to why we do not hear about high-profile landings, deprivation of titles and investigations yet.

But finally, something started to happen. And this is exactly what is needed in today's conditions. It is necessary to put things in order and cut the Gordian knot in problems with the interaction between parts and connections that do one thing.

Commanders began to change and remove. On September 29, the commander of the 4th Kantemirovskaya division was removed from his post. Once again, the command of the Western Military District has changed.

The system, pah-pah-pah, so as not to jinx it, began to heal.

Following commentary from Wagner founder Evginiy Prigozhin:
“Of course I know him. Surovikin is the most competent commander in the Russian army. But he can act in the current situation on the basis of the opportunities that he has and relying on the situation that was handed to him by his predecessors, and it was handed over, to put it mildly, not in the best possible way. As for his personal qualities, I can say one thing that Surovikin is a legendary person, he was born to faithfully serve the Motherland.

Faithfully serving the Motherland is not beautiful uniforms and tsatski to fasten. We all remember the events at the White House in August 1991,
...that’s the Russian White House in Moscow, formally known as The House of the Government of the Russian Federation, previously the House of Soviets of Russia. In August 1991 Russian President Boris Yeltsin did his thing outside it, and the Soviet Union fell...
and so Surovikin is the officer who, without hesitation, having received an order, got into a tank and rushed to save his country.

By the way, in August 1991 I also participated in those events, however, then I was on the side of the protesters - the liberal forces. We were then in the deepest delusion, and instead of directing the fundamental assembled country, called the USSR, into a new direction, giving the idea of ​​private property, a new vector of economic development and working on mistakes, we all together destroyed it to the ground.

We carried out a command from the United States and destroyed the greatest empire of our time for the sake of a bunch of greedy, treacherous creatures who plundered factories, plants, steamships on the sly.

By the way, most of them are still sitting on the money stolen from the people and rubbing their hands. Historically, this is a global unique error. China followed a similar path, with one difference - they did not plunder anything, and now has an outstanding economy. The first in the world, if you put aside the murky criminal schemes of the United States. And we are still paying for this mistake.

Surovikin in August 1991 did not have time to load full ammunition into his tank. And if we had time, then we would live in a completely different country, dozens of times more powerful.

What we got as a result: Khodorkovsky, Berezovsky and others - a pack of dogs attacked the property of the Soviet Union and pulled it in different directions. I, along with the protesters that day, went to the square and overturned trolleybuses so as not to return the USSR. For what? For the sake of an extra piece of sausage or boiled jeans. The results of today's problems were laid down in that distant 1991.

By the way, those who destroyed the USSR are still alive and well, they manage factories and plants, and steamboats, they are called by one name - Russian oligarchs. And the fuck they saw the entire military industry and the struggle for the interests of Russia. So Surovikin is the best, and he tried to save his Motherland, but his success depends, among other things, on his tank shells.

#1 HT Insty: AmidMajor Military Setbacks In Ukraine, Russia Replaces Eastern Military District Commander
As Ukraine continues to liberate settlements in its eastern region from occupying Russian troops, Moscow has reportedly replaced another top commander in its armed forces.

The head of Russia's North Caucasus region of Daghestan, Sergei Melikov, wrote on Telegram on October 7 that North Caucasus native Lieutenant General Rustam Muradov had been appointed to lead the Eastern Military District.


The district is based in Russia's Far East, but much of its personnel is currently taking part in Russia's unprovoked invasion of Ukraine.

Muradov, who among other Russian officials has been slapped with Western sanctions, led troops in Ukraine's eastern regions of Donetsk and Luhansk, parts of which have been under Moscow-backed separatists' control since 2014.

He also commanded Russian peacekeepers in Azerbaijan's breakaway region of Nagorno-Karabakh.

RBK news agency reported on October 7, citing sources close to the Russian military, that Muradov replaced Colonel General Aleksandr Chaiko, without giving any details.

There has been no official confirmation of the report.
