- Another senior defence official in the Russian military has been arrested after being accused of taking a large bribe, Russian media has reported.
General Vadim Shamarin, the deputy chief of General Staff, has appeared in court and he's the fourth senior official to be arrested since April.
Earlier this month, President Vladimir Putin removed Sergei Shoigu as his defence minister, and replaced him with the former deputy prime minister, Andrei Belousov.
It was a move seen as an attempt by the Kremlin to boost the army's efficiency and tackle corruption.

He wasn’t bribed, he just underperformed.
neither corruption nor underperforming gets you arrested in putin's gulag. He wasn't subservient enough or didn't give the regime a big enough cut of what he stole.
If that is true, Gerasimov will be the next one to go. He would be better off to resign and avoid aircraft rides and tall buildings until Putin is retired.
@@PassivePortfoliosputin will never retire he's a dictator
In Russia the corrupted are arrested all the time, which is why they have a strong economy and the lowest debt to gdp level in the world(19%). In the west corruption is always rewarded, no one is ever imprisoned or even fired.. which is why our economies become more and more sluggish as we drown in crippling debt.
@@brandonlance3601This is very very correct.
We’re seeing a repeat of history, Stalin did this with his Generals too
So did the little Austrian corporal.
so did every effing army including ukraine few weeks ago, you fight corruption not just stalin and adolf the only 2 peoples yanks comments about as an example for everything....
Stalin murdered generals that were tsarist or leninist. In Russia the corrupted are arrested all the time, which is why they have a strong economy and the lowest debt to gdp level in the world(19%).

Dictators never can blame themselves only others so heads roll, ironic how it always repeats in history.
Same with Zelemsky. Do you know how many Generals and military officials that have been fired and or arrested in Ukraine?
Oh dear. RIP to him in advance. x

True
He needs to stay away from open windows. 😂😂😂
And who isn't corrupt in Russia?
Good to see Putin crack down on government corruption. While he is at it, he should place himself under arrest since he is the most corrupt person in Russia.

@@brandonlance3601You are funny Brandon fake Russian name. Putin himself and his friends have stolen 25 years of profits of oil and gas to their own pockets over 1 trillion Dollars stolen from the Russian people. Instead of building roads, cities, factories, schools and giving Russians a better life like in Norway or Saudi Arabia, they stole all the money to their pockets And are now using the money for a pointless war to play games so Putin can have his name in pages of history? That is real bribery of the Russian people by Putin and his mafia.
Yeah that is bullseye, the ship is sinking and the clowns in charge are playing games on the deck. It is amazing how it repeats over and over in the pages of history

What? That's a stupid analogy. Why you people so scared about Putin getting rid of officers who are stealing from tax payers? Says a lot about you people.
Bribery is a slippery way to go
Arrested for not being corrupt enough.

Of course they are not talking about that,that would be undemocratic😅
What you mean like the fact that Ukraine has been successful dealing corruption. You do realise Ukraine doing constipation it’s not that evil or bad when you’re fighting for your countries freedom from a brutal dictator who wants to genocide them
What about what about?
I see your channel was created the month after the invasion and annexation of Crimea. That's quite a coincidence.

Steven is the best reporter in the BBC
I live the way he choose words and express

How are BBC journalist allowed in Russia?
Because unlike what the western propaganda tells you, there is a freedom press in Russia and around 1800 foreign journalists at any given time, including Brits and Americans.
Check out Steve Rosenberg, a BBC journalist who lives in Russia, -interview- interrogate Putin.
Then imagine for a second a Russian journalist interviewing Biden in the same fashion.
The journalist would have a "sexual assault" case manufactured overnight, and seize the videos as part of "evidence".
trying to make a point but in reality they are not allowed anywhere without supervision
Spy satellites we see everything..😊
After the American WSJ journalist was arrested on phony charges, I hope the BBC ordered all of their journalists in Russia, if any, out of the country immediately. If the BBC has Russian sources inside the country, it probably doesn't need to have its own personnel there.
journalists are not allowed inside putin's gulag period. There is no freedom of press, speech, protest.
That is the new defense minister already having an impact. The new guy is a economics whiz, not a military guy----Putin put him in charge precisely to get the Military into top financial shape. When you are preparing to fight 30 enemies all by yourself, there can be no waste or inefficiency.
They are not preparing to fight anyone they can hardly capture a small sliver of Ukraine and anyway Russian economy depends on selling oil and gas to China and India which use that to make goods for the west so Russia depends on the west 100% which is why the west can send any weapon they want and Russia can't do anything about it. The USA can send 300 F-16s to Ukraine to hit Russian cities but Russia can't do anything just get hit all day by western weapons, its a bit funny really. Its like BRICS, they only exist to sell resources to China to makes goods for the west out of it so they depend on the west to exist so of course they will never replace the Dollar it is just a joke.
If the west had balls they would send western solders to help Ukraine actually fight the war to take back Crimea and of course Russia would not be able to do anything about it anyway.
Exactly, this is just obvious but I don't why the west the west can't see always in state of denial
What "impact" is he having? The katsaps are only fighting Ukraine which has one hand tied behind its back. Vyrodok...
Especially needed when your foreign exchange rate with your enemy is US$1 = 100 Rubles.
How are those Chinese golf carts working out,😊

Why criticize Russia for eliminating corruption?
No one has issues with Russia removing corruption but it is probably false claims just to remove that man from power as he was doing a bad job but the issue is that Putin and his Oligarch friends have stolen oil and gas profits from the Russian people for 25 years which is incredible amount if money it could be trillions. Instead of giving Russian people new roads, new cities and a life like in Norway or Saudi Arabia they took the money and now using it on pointless war and adventures it is a big waste. Money spent on war is a dead end, it does nothing for the Russian economy, making tanks and missiles is a waste it has no future value.
If that’s the true reason
Because we can and because it's true. How do you think Putin became so personally wealthy on an annual salary of US$176,000.
Yeah, Putinhas yachts villas mansions, from where?
Read Bill Browders "Red Notice". for a small start on the absolutely vast subject of Russian corruption. Russia is a Mafia state. It is a condition of being part of the ruling class there.
All trumped up of course
For sure, Putin and his mafia friends stole 25 years of oil and gas profits from the Russian people around 1 trillion dollars, now that is how you do real theft, must be one of the worlds largest plunders in history, I am just really surprised they were willing to spend hundreds of billions of that stolen money and spent it on this war but they thought it would be over in like 3 weeks so yeah there is that.
lol taking bribes is like drinking water in Russia
or wódka xD
And in Ukraine???? Maybe you haven't heard about corruption in US nor UK and you think Russia is the only corrupt country in the world
funny I thought it was Ukraine that was the most corrupt country in europe
Nah its more like breating in Russia
In Russia people go to prison for taking bribe. In the US, they just call it lobbying....
American Congress is probably the single most corrupt organization on the planet by far.
The difference in corruption between the West and the post-Soviet countries is that the West believes that they do not have corruption. At least the post-Soviet countries are trying to fight it.
Differences:
Example - Business gives money to politicians to promote their interests:
The West = Lobbying
Post-Soviet countries = Corruption.
That is, in order to defeat corruption in the understanding of the West in post-Soviet countries, it should simply be renamed lobbying. :)
Rubbish argument.
I wonder why BBC jernolists can report freely from Moscow with any consequences 😂

Putin and his clown can cry and scream like little babies that they are at some fake war with the west but its all a show, in fact Russia needs the west more than ever before. When China and India buy Russian oil and gas and other resources they do so to make goods to export to the west. Think about it. Also BRICS they all export resources to China and the world to make goods for the West to buy. That is why Russian can't do anything against the west becasue without them Russia has no economy even selling to China is just going to the west by making products for the west. It all links back to the west. Russia can't do anything against it. Just smile and get blown up by western weapons every day in Ukraine, a bit of trap Putin went in to but he is not very smart guy and he is 73 so a bit old so maybe his brain is not that good anymore.

The funny thing is that Putin and his Mafia have stolen 25 years of oil and gas profits from the Russian people which is around 1 trillion dollars, that has to be one of the world's greatest plunders and thefts. Yet here they are going after some small time general, it is so comical.
Corruption is the biggest threat to Russia but not the most corrupted Ukraine in Europe.
Putin and his Oligarchs have stolen 1 trillion dollars of profits from oil and gas over 25 years, that is much more than anything these generals have done.
Bribed by who and to do what is the real question!
I guess Putin is claiming back pieces of the big pie
When something out of the ordinary happens once, it's an incident. When it happens twice, it's an accident. Thrice, it's a series. More times than that, it becomes a strategy, despite the protestations of the Putin sycophant, Dmitry Peskov.
