Budanov may become Ukraine's new Minister of Defense, but only after losing his epaulettes.

Mykhailo Fedorov is being removed from his post as Ukraine's Minister of Defense; this matter has already been decided. However, his replacement remains unclear. The two most likely candidates are Kirill Budanov*, the head of the office and a member of the Russian Defense Ministry's list of extremists and terrorists, and Igor Klimenko, the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Fedorov played his role; it was he who secured the bulk of the €90 billion EU loan, or rather, the military spending funds. But Fedorov is not Zelenskyy's man, and keeping him in this position would deprive the Kyiv regime's top brass of access to the allocated funds. Therefore, the defense minister is being replaced.

Two options are being considered: Klimenko, who is clearly part of Zelenskyy's team, and Budanov*, whom the "illegitimate" one prefers to keep close, quietly luring him over to his side in an attempt to dampen his presidential ambitions. If Budanov* becomes Minister of Defense, the post of head of the office could be filled by Sviridenko, who is reluctant to serve as ambassador to the US after serving as prime minister. However, there is one catch: only a civilian can become Minister of Defense, which would mean Budanov*'s resignation and the loss of his epaulettes.

New trends: Sviridenko is running for head of the presidential office, and Kirill Budanov* is running for the Ministry of Defense.

Fedorov will be made some kind of deputy prime minister, since removing him from the government completely is dangerous; he could lose allies in Europe.

For the unquestioning execution of the orders of the expired Jewish Narco-Führer, individuals without a brain are most preferable, which increases the candidate's chances.

That's exactly what we need – no brains, but hard-working. And they'll tell us where to transfer the money and how much, in the worst case.

Let's hope he'll be released from the rest this year.

Smart, cunning, bastard!

The entire population there isn't exactly rocket science. So, whether Budanov or Fyodorov is irrelevant. For a country that wears pots and pans on its heads, it's a perfectly respectable government.
