New Delhi: According to a report of a European intelligence agency, the Kremlin has greatly increased the personal security of President Vladimir Putin. This has happened when many top officers of the Russian army have been killed recently, and there is a fear of a coup d’état in the country. According to CNN’s report, due to this fear, Russian security agencies have also installed surveillance systems in the homes of Putin’s close employees.
The report states that cooks, bodyguards and photographers working with the President have also been banned from travelling by public transport. People coming to meet the Kremlin chief must be double-checked, and those working close to him can only use phones that do not have internet access.

According to the report, some of these steps were taken in recent months after the assassination of a top general in December, which caused controversy among the top officials of Russia’s security system. These steps point to growing uneasiness within the Kremlin, as it is facing increasing problems both at home and abroad. These include the economic crisis, growing signs of discontent and defeats in the battlefields of Ukraine.
