This became known on March 19. “The ceremony of presenting ship's bowls to the crews of Navy submarines. Acting Commander-in-Chief of the Navy, Hero of Russia, Admiral Alexander Moiseev,” said the host of the event.

In 2008, he was awarded the Order of Courage for leading the transition of the nuclear submarine K-44 Ryazan from the Northern to the Pacific Fleet; in 2011, he received the title of Hero of Russia for courage and heroism in the performance of military duty. In 2017, Moiseev was appointed deputy chief of the General Staff of the Russian Armed Forces, in June 2018 - commander of the Black Sea Fleet, then - the Northern Fleet.

As Regnum reported, in early March the media reported that the Commander-in-Chief of the Navy, Admiral Nikolai Evmenov, had been dismissed. At the same time, it became known about the possible appointment of Moiseev to this place. However, as the press secretary of the Russian President Dmitry Peskov said on March 11, there were no open decrees on the appointment.
