In the Kremlin

Who got the mold

September 2, 2009 Alexander Golts

Poor, poor Colonel Kovalev. Now an unknown employee of the Institute of Military History of the Ministry of Defense bites elbows from powerlessness and annoyance. In early June, he, whose article in the Military Historical Journal was posted on the official website of the Ministry of Defense, ended up at the center of the scandal. But the colonel was the first to catch where the invisible fluids of the Russian authorities were sent, and prepared a wonderful text that proved that Poland itself was to blame for the fact that fascist Germany attacked it. I must say that at that very moment this, undoubtedly, the innovative view of history shocked. The article was quickly removed from the site (it's time to return it) and, I suspect, the colonel himself went to nuts.

Who knew that the article by Kovalev was exactly what was required by official propagandists. Because they were ordered to prove the unacceptable: the Molotov -Ribbentrop Pact was inevitable due to the selfish imperialist policy of England, France and, of course, Poland itself. Poor Stalin simply had no choice but to join Poland, which had been resisting fascist aggression for two weeks now, and to pull off a piece from this country (after all, Poland itself took the same area in Czechoslovakia). And then there was simply no other way out how to destroy several thousand Polish officers. And then try to explain this vileness of the work of the Germans. And then to declare that all the attempts of the Poles to ensure that modern Russia expresses a clear attitude towards this is simply falsification of history and the manifestation of the original Polish Russophobia.

Miserable plagiarists from the department of Mr. Surkov brazenly assigned the development of the coded colonel Kovalev and put them in the service of Russia (probably not paying anything to the author of a fruitful debut idea). We met several interpretations of these developments through the specialists of NTV and RTV. I was most impressed by the production of Channel One. An unexpected technique was used in the film to revive the soreness in the film. The artists made up under Hitler, Stalin, Voroshilov and other characters of historical drama. It seemed that the authors should follow the rolled path: to play their lies as a play in order to make more reliable. But at all, the actors were photographed in the form of frozen wax figures or mannequins (I must admit, I’m still not sure whether they were mannequins or still living people), and the dialogue between them took place with the help of a ordered voice. It seemed that the authors were afraid that even the actors, having opened their mouths, can inadvertently tell the truth.

In all this phantasmagoria there was only one intrigue. Analysts wondered: what is the Nationalist Putin V.V. going to speak in Poland. Of course, our eagle is all God's dew, but, you see, it would still be strange to appear to celebrate the anniversary of the national tragedy to another country and announce that this country is to blame.

As usual, reality exceeded all expectations. Now there is no doubt that Russian leaders have lost any sense of the difference between their own lies and reality.

So during negotiations with the Polish colleague, Vladimir Putin said (he was once taught that in no case should one be silent in response to any claims) that he was ready to provide the access of Polish researchers in Katyn to Russian archives if Warsaw provides the same access to Russians to their archives. At the same time, the unwillingness to remove the secrecy vulture from the archives in Katin can only be explained by one thing: they do not want to name the names of the executioners, either still alive, or the current bosses who come to relatives. Ironically, it was at this moment that the historian’s press conference was held in Moscow at the civilian retirement Major General of PSU Lev Lev Sotskov, who acts as a compiler of the documents declassified on the occasion of the properly prove the veracity of the General Line. So, the above -mentioned socialists, the historian, not yet knowing about the cunning reciprocal progress of the chief boss, said that he was generally not at all interesting to the Polish archives. According to Sotskov, the current Polish leadership does not have similar documents, since the Nazis took out all the Polish archives during the war years. “Similar documents may be in the USA or England,” the general suggested. "I think that the Poles need to rejoice that we provide an opportunity to get acquainted with these documents," Sotskyov said. I think that Socovkov and otherwise have not been interested in anything for a long time. They know all the answers in advance.

Further, more. Contrary to Putin’s concepts about how real boys should behave (and girls, if you keep in mind Angel Merkel), everyone suddenly began to repent and talk about the responsibility of their own countries. Well, Merkel is clear, but here the Polish President Lech Kachinsky took and recognized the responsibility of Poland and other European countries for indirect encouraging fascist Germany to aggression: “Of course, participation in what Hitler intended, in particular, in the section of Czechoslovakia, is our sin. We can hardly count on forgiveness. "In this situation, to say that Poland was to blame for everything, it was somehow stupid. And Putin began to improvise (assume that this text was written in advance, means to agree with the complete loss of qualification of the premier speaker):“ The State Duma of the Russian Federation, the country's parliament condemned the Molotov -Ribbentrop Pact. We have the right to expect to be in other countries that have gone to other countries that have gone to other countries. The deal with the Nazis was also done. It sounded beautifully. But the whole point is that neither at the level of political leaders, nor at the level of political decisions, modern Russia Pact Molotov -Ribbentrop did not condemn. He was convicted, but only by the Congress of People's Deputies of the USSR in 1990. And this, whatever one may say, was not a Duma, not Russia, it was a quasi -parliament of the USSR - another state. Honestly, I did not trust my own memory. But all the experts that I managed to contact, confirm: contrary to Putin’s statement, the Russian State Duma never condemned Stalin’s conspiracy with Hitler.

For many years of absolute control over obedient television, they turned out to be the fact that the Russian national driver and its employees were seriously assured: they can, of their own free will construct not only the present, but also the past.

The question is who is addressed to this frank lies. Residents of Russia? So they already believe that Germany unleashed the Second World War with France, England and Poland. Do we want to prove our case to Europe? But there they know the real price of Putin's words very well.

While in Poland, the Russian prime minister used complex multilayer images (the bad influence of Nathan Dubovitsky was felt): “If we are talking about an objective assessment of history, we must understand that it has no same color. It was diverse, and a huge number of mistakes were made from many parties. And all these actions, one way or another, created the conditions for the beginning of a large -scale aggression of Nazi Germany. And if someone sets himself the goal of looking for some highlight for himself from this old and already moldy roll, and leave all the mold for one participant in this process, then nothing good will come of it. ” The problem is that everyone, with the exception of the Russian leadership, one way or another, figured out their historical past and dissociated them from it. But only Russian chiefs for some reason continue to consider themselves the heirs of Stalin. Therefore, we all, not only them, gets vile mold.
