Sergei Surovikin, aka 'General Armageddon', fired by Vladimir Putin | Oneindia News
Russian authorities have reportedly detained General Sergei Surovikin, the deputy commander of Russia’s military operations in Ukraine, amid a reported purge of military officials following the short-lived rebellion by Wagner mercenary forces.
He has not been seen in public since past Saturday, with US intelligence reportedly claiming that he had prior knowledge of the uprising led by the Wagner chief, Yevgeny Prigozhin.
Prigozhin had welcomed his appointment as overall Commander of the Russian forces in Ukraine post in 2022, calling him a “legendary figure” and “born to serve his motherland”.
Just two days after his appointment as Overall Commande rin Ukraine, Russia had unleashed the largest barrage of missiles and air strikes since the invasion in February, pushing the war into a deadlier new phase .
He was later sacked from this post.
Surovikin, nicknamed “General Armageddon” by the Russian media for his reputed ruthlessness, is a veteran of Russia’s wars in Chechnya and Syria who has been decorated several times by Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Chinese President Xi Jinping has delivered a bold message during Russia’s Victory Day commemorations, calling for the elimination of the root causes of the Ukraine conflict—remarks widely interpreted as a direct swipe at NATO and Western policy. In closed-door talks with Vladimir Putin, Xi pushed for a “fair, lasting, and binding” peace deal, while stressing that the security concerns of all nations must be respected.

Despite Moscow brimming with global dignitaries for the Victory Day events, Russian President Vladimir Putin held only an informal meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping. The absence of a formal bilateral engagement raised eyebrows amid the grand celebrations marking the 80th anniversary of the end of the Great Patriotic War. At a state dinner for foreign delegations, Putin gave a commemorative speech, while continued informal talks between the two leaders hinted at deep, strategic dialogues away from the spotlight. The low-key engagement stands out amid a highly symbolic diplomatic setting.
