"This is another indication of Putin’s desperate attempt to continue his war of aggression against Ukraine, despite the significant toll on the Russian economy and the heavy losses suffered by Russian troops,” spokesperson Vedant Patel told reporters.
“Russia started this unprovoked war against Ukraine. Putin could end it today by withdrawing his forces from Ukraine,” the spokesperson continued.
In a government shake-up, Russian President Vladimir Putin on Sunday replaced Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu, who had held the post for 12 years, with Andrey Belousov, an economist who has held economic-focused positions in the Russian government.
Shoigu will become secretary of the Security Council, a post previously held by Nikolai Patrushev, who was relieved of his duties, according to a decree published by the Kremlin.
