All branches of the VDF answer to a single [[General Defense Staff]]. The General Defense Staff is headed by the [[Chief of the General Defense Staff]], who is the highest ranking military officer of the VDF by law.

Chiefs of the General Staff are nominated by the President and are approved by the [[Federal Council]], serving for up to two consecutive four year terms. The current Chief of the General Staff is [[Ivan Alyev]].
