Is Putin’s daughter taking control of the government? Major changes in the government cabinet are under way in Russia.

Irina Okladnikova, 41, is expected to become the youngest deputy prime minister and take the lead in the government’s executive office.

Interestingly, her brother, Alexander Wolfe, has worked for the Innopacta Foundation, which relates to Catherine Tikhonovan, the daughter of Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Meanwhile, 70-year-old Yuri Trutnev is leaving the posts of deputy prime minister and presidential envoy for the Far East, after 13 years in these positions. According to media reports, he can continue his career in the Kremlin.

It is also noteworthy that Sergei Ivanov, 73, one of Putin’s longtime associates, died in June.

In autumn, rumours spread that Sergei Mironov, also 73, was seriously ill, but the politician himself denied those claims.

Looks like Russia’s leading elite is going through a change of generations. Could Katerina Tikhonono report on her father’s state of health, which is moving her to promote her people in government positions? /Telegraphy/
