Huge Purge In Kremlin! Putin Dismissed Trusted Commander-in-Chief of Land Forces - The Russian Dude

Putin respects and needs only only thing among his followers: the unquestionable loyalty. This is what allows people to climb career ladders fast in Russia. But don't you expect the same loyalty from your boss. If anything, you will be the first one to be discarded. And so another huge purge happened in Kremlin. This time Putin dismissed his trusted commander-in-chief of land forces Oleg Salyukov. But his story is far from over.
