1A Dying Putin Shakes Up Russia's Defense Ministry to Promote An Heir?Noesorin'i Putin Ny Minisitry Ny Fiarovana Mba Hisondrotan'ny Mpandova azy?
2In early November, as Americans prepared to re-elect President Barack Obama, Vladimir Putin fired his long-time ally Anatoly Serdyukov, the man who's served as Russia's Defense Minister since 2007.Tamin'ny fiandohan'ny volana Novambra, vonona hifidy indray an'i Barack Obama ho filoham-pirenena ny Amerikana, nanapaka ny finamanany efa ela tamin'i Anatoly Serdyukov i Vladimir Putin, minisitry ny Fiarovana tao Rosia nanomboka tamin'ny taona 2007 i Anatoly Serdyukov.
3Sergei Shoigu, the Governor of the Moscow Oblast and the former head of the Ministry of Emergency Situations (the MChS), was appointed in his place.Sergei Shoigu, Governoran'i Moskoa sy lehiben'ny Minisitera Misahana ny Toe-draharaha Maika (MChS) no notendrena hisolo ny toerany.
4There is wide speculation about what prompted Serdyukov's ouster.Misy antony lehibe no mahamaika tamin'ny fanesorana an'i Serdyukov.
5Most noticeably, he recently came under investigation for selling off military property for personal gain.Ny tena hita mazava, dia nohadihadiana izy vao haingana noho ny fivarotany ireo fananan'ny miaramila ho amin'ny tombotsoany manokana.
6The ongoing case served as the official reason for replacing Serdyukov with Shoigu, though other theories abound, as Russia's military is deeply mired in corruption, despite years of anti-graft campaigns.Izany tranga izany no antony ofisialy nahatonga ny fanalàna an'i Serdyukov izay nosoloina an'i Shoigu, mbola maro anefa ireo antony mety mahatonga izany, satria latsa-paka tanteraka ao anatin'ny kolikoly ny miaramila ao Rosia, na dia teo aza ny fanentanana manohitra ny kolikoly natao nandritra ny taona maro.
7Journalist and blogger Oleg Kashin submits [ru] that Putin is grooming Shoigu as an heir, just as Yeltsin nurtured the rapid rise of Putin himself in the late 1990s.Nametraka [ru] kosa ilay mpanao gazety sady bilaogera Oleg Kashin fa nomen'i Putin toerana ambony tahaka ny mpandova i Shoigu, tahaka an'i Yeltsin nampiakatra vetivety an'i Putin ihany koa tamin'ny taona 1990.
8Kashin argues that the promotion is meant to boost Shoigu's stature, so that Putin can at last retire:Nanamafy i Kashin fa midika ho fanatsarana an'i Shoigu ny fampisondrotan-toerana azy, mba ahafahan'i Putin misotro ronono amin'izay:
9In the MChS, they toasted Sergei Shoigu as the “future President of Russia” as far back as Yeltsin's days.Tao amin'ny MChS, nankalaza an'i Sergei Shoigu ho “filoham-pirenena rahampitson'i Rosia” izy ireo, tahaka ny tamin'ny andron'i Yeltsin.
10The only question now is how he'll come to power: either Putin will appoint him as his ‘successor,' or Shoigu will appoint himself.Ny hany fanontaniana tokana tokana sisa dia ny hahatongavany eo amin'ny fitondrana: na hotendren'i Putin ho mpandimby azy izy, na i Shoigu ihany no hanendry ny tenany.

13Indeed, Vladimir Putin is not getting any younger, and, in recent years, Russia observers have increasingly noted a rising demand for better democratic institutions.Indrindra mofa fa tsy hihatanora i Vladimir Putin, ary tao anatin'ny taona vitsy lasa, nanamarika hatrany ireo mpanara-baovao Rosiana fa nitombo ny fitakiana amin'ny fametrahana mendrika sy tsaratsara kokoa ny demokrasia ao amin'ny firenena.
14The country's lack of elite turnover also seems to produce more popular anger today than at any earlier point in Putin's dominance of Russian politics.Ny tsy fananan'ny firenena olo-manga sy mendrika no toa hita fa mahatonga ny fahatezeram-bahoaka amin'izao fotoana noho ny resaka vao haingana momba ny fanjakazakan'i Putin eo amin'ny politika Rosiana.
15Putin's “tandem partner” and one-time boss Dmitri Medvedev lacks the power and charisma to be a successful leader without Putin.Ny “tandem” nisy teo amin'i Putin sy ilay efa nisy fotoanany efa lehibeny dia i Dmitri Medvedev no mampihena ny fahefana sy ny herimpanintonany hampahomby ny fitantanana rehefa tsy eo intsony i Putin.
16Shoigu, on the other hand, is independently quite popular.Shoigu kosa etsy andaniny, tsy dia malaza.
17In a poll conducted by the Russian Public Opinion Center, Shoigu's 78% approval rating made him the most popular minister in the federal government by far.Tamin'ny fitsapa-kevitra notontosain'ny Ivon- toerana Mpitsapa ny Hevi-bahoaka, ny faneken'ny 78% an'i Shoigu no mametraka azy ho minisitra malaza indrindra ao amin'ny governemanta federaly atsy ho atsy.
18(The runner-up trailed by more than twenty points!)(Ny manaraka azy kosa dia mbola manenjika isa roapolo mahery!)
19Many in the political opposition detected an element of desperation in the cadres reshuffle.Maro amin'ireo mpanohitra politika no nahatsapa fa nisy ny fahakiviana itadiavana fanomezana aina vaovao indray ny mpitantana ambony.
20Opposition activist Sergei Udaltsov was particularly ominous [ru]:Mpanohitra mpikatroka Sergei Udaltsov no niahiahy indrindra [ru]:
21Shoigu was sent to the Moscow Oblast, and now to the Ministry of Defense.Nalefa namita iraka tany Moskoa i Shoigu, ary ankehitriny lasa Minisitry ny Fiarovana.
22This is a red flag; it says that that the authorities' cadre reserves are running thin.Saina mena efa mitsangana izany; milaza izany fa efa vitsy sisa ireo mpiasa ambony fiandry ao amin'ny fitantanam-panjakana.
23In a Facebook post [ru] on November 16, Solidarnost activist Pavel Shelkov [ru] spread a rumor that Putin is dying of spinal cancer and is indeed preparing Shoigu to replace him as president.Tamin'ny lahatsoratra tao amin'ny facebook [ru] tamin'ny 16 Novambra, nanely tsaho ilay mpikatroka Solidarnost Pavel Shelkov [ru] fa nodimandry noho ny homamiadan'ny hazon-damosina (colonne vertebrale) i Putin ka izany indrindra no antony fanomanana an'i Shoigu mba hisolo azy ho filoha.
24Shelkov, who is not a doctor, claims that Putin has just three months to live.Nanambara i Shelkov, izay tsy mpitsabo, fa telo volana sisa ny andro iveloman'i Putin.
25“The Virgin Mother has granted the girls' prayer,” he declared, referring to Pussy Riot's now infamous plea from the altar of the Cathedral of Christ the Savior that Mary “banish Putin.”“Namaly ny vavak'ireo tovovavy i Maria Virjiny,” hoy ny nambarany, milaza momba ny fangatahana mahamenatra nataon'ny Pussy Riot teny amin'ny alitaran'ny Katedralin'i Kristy Mpamonjy fa efa “nandroaka an'i Putin” i Maria.
