RUSSIA & UKRAINE

Khrushchev wanted to give Ukraine not only Crimea, but also Belarus

Why Khrushchev slandered Stalin at the XXII Party Congress, why the Soviet Union should have followed the path of China in assessing the cult of personality, and whether there was actually a military conspiracy led by Tukhachevsky, said the author of the book "The Death of a Great State", deputy head of the FSB Academy of Russia Mikhail Khoruzhik.

- Mikhail Iosifovich, what was Stalin's inner circle capable of trying to take his place?

— There is always a struggle for power in the ruling circles of any country. For example, Nazarbayev's sons-in-law and himself are implicated in the events in Kazakhstan. And behind his sons-in-law is the British intelligence service.

Churchill said on his anniversary: "Thank not me, but Khrushchev, who ruined everything in the USSR!"

Here the question of Stalin's participation in the repressions is interesting. I give examples in my book that there were a million repressed people, but there were also criminals, not just political figures. Whereas N. Khrushchev, in a report to the XXII Party Congress in 1956, stated that 10 million were repressed. This he did for the sake of his own interests.

— That is why Khrushchev recommended that Prosecutor General Rudenko sentence to death the Minister of State Security V. Abakumov, who knew about his Ukrainian affairs, where Khrushchev himself, as the first secretary of Ukraine, was the initiator of mass shootings since 1937?

THE RUSSIANS DID IT!

The imagined ‘threat’ from Russia

It would now seem that Vladimir Putin is assuming the role of the new bogeyman. Certainly, he has expressed his disdain for many ‘western values’ and refuses to conform. His apparent authoritarian approach makes him a ruthless dictator in the eyes of many wimpy western leaders. As a former KGB officer, he has resources at his disposal to enable him to steer the outcome of the US elections in favour of Donald Trump, so we are led to believe, even although there is no credible evidence to support the accusations. Even Mrs Merkel has rumoured that Mr Putin could be about to instigate her downfall through hacking or ‘fake news’. Would that he really could do this, we should have a lot to thank him for! If Merkel is brought down she will have done it by her own stupidity. Yet despite all this nonsense, unlike his predecessors in the Kremlin, we need to remember that Putin was elected by a largely free and fair election and enjoys an 80% popularity rating. Something western leaders can only dream of. He is a Russian nationalist and totally committed to acting in his country’s best interests.

...

Anti-Russian rhetoric has reached to point of being obviously foolish. Social media has been full of well-deserved mockery. No evidence for any of the claims has been forthcoming and press officers in Washington stutter and stumble. Some wiser souls have backtracked saying it was all an insider leak. ‘Mutti’ Merkel herself has expressed fears for similar reasons for next year’s German elections. Of course, the Russians made sure the British would vote to leave the EU. Russia unlike the USA is not seeking world-wide domination.

It is time to call a halt to this rubbish lest someone make a disastrous mistake.
