Big Time 1958

In the Chairman's Office of the KGB Headquarters on 11 Lubyanka Square, the KGB Chairman Sherepin scrutinized the report of the General Administration of Military Administration with a serious look. The level is no worse than Shelepin who read the report.

   "Yuri, this is not in line with our national policy!" Shelepin gently put down the adjustment plan for the Arab region. Although the document did not state it clearly, how could she not understand Shelov's thoughts when standing in Shelepin's position?

Well! Serov snorted and shook his head, "Am I not in line with the national policy? It also conforms to the way of life that our government has always advocated, right! Atheism and ethnic equality! My adjustment is very in line with the spirit of the central government. The motherland told me, Give care to some brothers and ethnic groups, and support in education, okay! Take care of the habits of ethnic minorities, you can! But we are not raising uncles, right? Care is mutual, should we also take care of us on some issues? Soldiers can only obey Soviets, not to obey a religion!"

"Although you say that, you also know that the first secretary and the former general secretary have different attitudes on this matter! Of course, if it is limited to the issue of the garrison of the Red Army in the Arab region, I can agree with you to adjust the report!" Xie Lepin stood up Said earnestly. The people in his mouth are naturally Khrushchev and Stalin. Khrushchev was born in Ukraine and has a very deep affection for Ukraine, which also affects the national policy of the Soviet Union. Stalin, on the other hand, was a Georgian, but a complete Great-Russian, determined to turn all nations into Soviets.

"Thank you, Chairman, that's enough, a trivial matter!" Shelov stood up and flattered, cheering for his adjustment plan, "Chairman, I didn't mean to always have problems for you to solve, I was worried about the future. The director does not dare to give such an order! So if there are problems, I should solve them during my tenure, and don’t leave problems for the successors. If you delay small problems, they may ferment into big problems…”

  The issue of the Soviet Union in terms of ethnicity, if we have to draw a comparison of a multi-ethnic country with a vast land and abundant resources, it can only be China. The severity of the two problems is definitely more serious in the Soviet Union. After all, the main ethnic group in the Soviet Union is only slightly more than half, and its ability to withstand pressure is far less than that of the Han nationality, which is 90% of the people in the country. Ethnic troubles, the Russians will not do it first.

Before the disintegration of the Soviet Union, the Russians were the most dissatisfied group with ethnic policies, far exceeding other ethnic groups in the Soviet Union. Think about it and know what the problem is. Azerbaijanis, Kazakhs, Uzbeks, Turkmens, everyone. There are several million people with a small number of people, and more than 10 million people with a large number. Who is going to let you take care of them every day?

   Of course, the Soviet Union is not without its advantages. For example, the Soviet Union has an organization like the KGB that eliminates problems.

"I know you are well-intentioned, but your methods are so direct that you don't even know how to cover them up! It's easy for people to target them!" Xie Lepin is also very strange sometimes, his director is so young, why does he act like a Like running away, it feels like a race against fate. Is there any danger behind you?

"Those wine bags and rice bags in the Nationalities Academy? I'm not afraid of them, I'm not afraid of anyone..." Serov took out two cigarettes from his pocket with both hands free, and put one directly into Shelepin's mouth, holding a cigarette in his mouth. He said vaguely, "It's just a group of decorations, I don't believe that those ethnic groups have no culture except for religion! Wearing a black robe makes you appear literate? It's okay to pull an ordinary student from the National University, I want to see who's knowledge. some more!"

"You little tiger came here to bite the pillow?" Shelepin directly told his director to shut up, no one can interfere in the KGB work, but people are always looking for trouble, "Don't you have something, hurry up and do it! I'm going to the Kremlin! Remember to think about the security work of the general secretary these days..."

   Shelov smiled tacitly, and was kicked out of the office by Shelepin. Shelepin usually only appears in two places during the day, the first is the KGB headquarters, if not here, you can find him from the Kremlin.

Serov did have one more thing today. He was going to meet the director of the First General Administration and the Director of the General Administration of Frontier Defense. Seeing that the time was almost up, he followed Shelepin's words and left the KGB headquarters, "Is it Sunday? The Palace of Culture is so lively? "Passing by the KGB headquarters and the Palace of Culture directly located at the headquarters of the First General Administration, Serov saw children with red scarves all over the square through the car window, which should be an activity organized by a primary school.

   "These children are so cute, I want to have a child too!" Even though Isamotney was driving, there was a desire in her voice, and seeing these children playing stirred a chord in her heart that had never been touched.

   Shelov was silent for a while, and he naturally understood the woman's voice, but not now, he dared not! It took a long time to say, "Wait a few years, there will be a chance!"

   After passing through the safest children's playground in the world, you will arrive at the headquarters of the First General Administration. The distance between the two headquarters can be reached on foot. Today Serov came here mainly to meet with the other two chiefs of the General Administration.

   "Is Comrade Zelyanov here?" Serov asked directly when he arrived at the First General Bureau, Lieutenant General Zelyanov, director of the KGB Frontier Defense General Bureau, and commander of the Frontier Defense Forces. He is the head of the 300,000 frontier troops under the KGB. If the KGB hadn't had such a department, it would not have acquiesced to Serov's frequent trips abroad to steal money. More than half of the KGB's more than two billion dollars in funding from the government is eaten up by the border guards and the internal affairs forces each year, which puts heavy economic pressure on other departments. The command of the internal affairs troops is in the KGB presidium, and the funds are shared by the major general bureaus, so it seems that the border defense bureau is more conspicuous on the issue of funding.

"The headquarters of the General Administration of Frontier Defense is too far away, but it should be almost the same. You have a rest first! Let's talk about the Iraqi civil war!" Lieutenant General Sakhartowski poured a glass of water and was directly taken by Shelov, who just finished eating A little thirsty in my mouth.

"You have been out of the country for half a year. I want to tell you about the situation. According to the report of the Middle East Division, the Iraqi Qassem government shot and suppressed the Shiite people who demanded democratic elections when you went to work in Berlin, that is, in March. The specific data has not been released, but our agents estimate that the death toll is around 300! Then the Shiites quit first, followed by the threatened Sunnis. Of course, the strongest army at present is Qassem’s army. The government!" Lieutenant General Sakhartowski introduced the current situation bit by bit with a glass of water.

   "Director, Comrade Zelyanov has arrived!" Lieutenant General Sakhartowski nodded to the secretary and said, "Let Comrade Zelyanov come over, this time we need the cooperation of three bureaus!"
