The Commander in Chief of the Russian Airborne Forces has officially distanced himself from the outrage of his subordinates by describing the situation in the Airborne Forces as “normal” and by saying that the recent incident with Defense Minister Serdiukov mostly fictional.

I will keep you posted the best I can.
