Medvedev, yes. Shoigu because he's been around since the USSR and knows how not to rock the boat, and Lavrov because even though he's very competent, he wants to retire but Putin won't let him. This war has just highlighted for those of us outside Russia how ridiculous and detached from reality they all are; Lavrov has been instrumental in creating the appearance that Russia was "westernizing" all these years.

That was majorly Gerard Schroder's and Angela Merkel's doing.
