Putin removes Gryzlov from Russian Security Council
Russian President Vladimir Putin has issued a decree to exclude Boris Gryzlov from the composition of the country's Security Council.
Putin's April 11, 2016 decree, which was published on the official legal information portal on Tuesday, orders that "changes be introduced into the composition of the Security Council of the Russian Federation, confirmed by the decree of the president of the Russian Federation, dated May 25, 2012, [...] by excluding B. V. Gryzlov from it."
The same decree amends the April 5, 2016 decree which gave a seat on the Russian Security Council to Russian Federal National Guard Service director and National Guard commander Viktor Zolotov. The word 'permanent' was removed from the April 5 decree. Consequently, Zolotov was included in the Security Council as a 'member', not a 'permanent member'.
Gryzlov became a permanent member of Russia's Security Council in December 2011. Since December 26, 2015, he has held the post of Russia's permanent representative to the Trilateral Contact Group for Ukraine.
