"At the end of the day, the Kremlin held a grand reception to celebrate the successful end of the Patriotic War Moogang I Day, which was also attended by Fan Wuxian and Shen Ying, and several girls of the same age got together with Shen Ying.
Shen Ying also impressed Fan Wuxi, German F6 is very fluent, not to mention English, even Russian and Italian F6 have also learned a little bit, and even a language like French F6 can cope with it for a while, it is really very good for Fan Wuxian to have a long face, so that the female translator of the Chinese Embassy in Russia who followed on the side said to Fan Wuxian with some emotion, I have never seen such an outstanding girl as Shen Ying.
"Ha, my wife who is not sick is naturally different from others." Fan Wuxian sat in a corner of the hall with a glass of red wine, watching Shen Ying and the girls chatting there, while stumbling to exchange the various situations in Russia for a period of time.
From the mouth of the embassy staff, Fan Wuxian learned that in fact, it was not until 7 May, the day before he came to Moscow, that Putin was sworn in as president, and in the third presidential election of the Russian Federation on 26 March, he received more than half of the votes and passed the legal number of votes to be elected as the third president of Russia. "At the presidential inauguration ceremony in the Kremlin in Moscow, the capital of Russia, Putin stepped on the red carpet of St. George's Hall for the first time.
From a legal point of view, Putin was only acting as president before, and now he is the newly released president of Russia.
"In the recent childhood, assassinations against Putin have continued." The embassy's intelligence attache whispered to Fan Wuxian: "A few days ago, the Russian Federal Security Service just foiled an assassination attempt against Putin.
At around 8 p.m. on May 7, intelligence officers captured a 24-year-old Tajikistani in an apartment near Red Square in Moscow. The man's apartment was hiding firearms and ammunition, including a sniper rifle and a Kalashnikov automatic rifle, and the apartment window overlooked Red Square.
Just three hours after his arrest, Putin went to Red Square to celebrate his presidential victory, an easy target for an experienced sniper.
The head of the FSB also said at a press conference yesterday that Russian security forces had thwarted a number of terrorist attacks during the presidential campaign and on election day, but did not provide specific details.
In the face of multiple assassination threats, the responsibility to protect Putin fell to the presidential guard, who are known as bodyguards.
Because Putin used to be a senior intelligence officer, he was very familiar with security protection, and he thought that he was a big man, so the conditions for him to choose his personal bodyguards were that they were tall and burly, but not too conspicuous, and their appearance should be ordinary.
Putin's guard basically consists of his entourage and men in black, with the former being closest to the president and usually wearing civilian clothes, armed with a nine-millimeter pistol and bulletproof flaps to protect the president, and the other members of the guard generally wear a black suit, called the men in black. Each member of the Guard is equipped with the most advanced weaponry and means of communication.
The presidential motorcade generally consists of four vehicles, one is a presidential car, two are escort vehicles, and the remaining one is a communication vehicle. The presidential car is bulletproof and has a special device that can detonate explosives within a range of 50 to 1 sundial meter.
The president's driver is also specially trained to drive with one hand and shoot at targets hundreds of meters away with the other, so it can be said that Putin's bodyguards are equipped with sophisticated weapons and communications equipment.
In fact, in January, the authorities were on Putin's way home from the Kremlin, and now 40 kilograms of explosives were divided into three metal boxes and placed in a water pipe near the highway. Chechen rebels had threatened to kill Kujing in retaliation for the Russian army's attack on Chechnya. "When Putin attended the CIS leaders' summit in Ukraine a while ago, the security services of the Russian authorities also obtained intelligence from overseas channels, dismantled the plot to assassinate Putin, and arrested a number of Chechen men and suspects from Middle Eastern countries. ”
According to Russian media statistics, Putin has managed to avoid at least eight assassinations recently, all thanks to effective prevention.
Don't look at Putin himself as dismissive of the assassination rumors, but as long as there is information about the assassination, the Federal Security Service, which is responsible for his security, is like a big enemy.
As a result of their work, the staff of the Security Service often interact with active journalists in the course of their missions, and their task is not to allow journalists and others to get too close to protected persons.
As a direct agency of the Kremlin, the Federal Security Service inherited the presidential security system designed by the Ninth Directorate of the KGB during the Soviet era, and consisted of the Presidential Security Service, the Kremlin Guard, and the Presidential Guard Corps.
The salary of the president's bodyguard, which is twice as high as serving in other troops, also includes thirty days of vacation per year. However, in order to enter this special group, it must go through layers of elimination. The conditions are absolute loyalty to the president, decent conduct, and no criminal record; Secondly, it must be a Slav with a height of "Li; Mi 8 or above, aged 20 to 35 years; In addition, it is necessary to be familiar with a variety of fighting techniques, be able to drive in abnormal environments, and be prepared to recognize various poisons.
The powers given to the Federal Security Service by law are wide-ranging. For example, in order to carry out clandestine activities and to ensure the personal safety of the persons under their protection, the personnel of the Federal Security Service have access to anyone's files, use the houses and means of transport of any department, have unhindered access to any place, and requisition the cars of organizations and individuals. The organization, strategies, ways and means of the security bureau are not within the scope of the supervision of the procuratorate.
When Putin appears in public, there will be at least four layers of protective bulgings around him.
The first is the president's personal bodyguards, usually a few large men with headsets and carrying document bags that can be used as armoured shields.
These men covered the President with their bodies, and with their large numbers and menacing appearances, they frightened the Assassins. The second layer of protective bulging is plainclothes mixed with the crowd. They have no features and are easy to operate in the shadows, and if necessary, they will even make physical contact with suspicious people to determine whether they are hiding weapons. The third layer of protection is the guards who stand around the crowd and stop the bad guys trying to squeeze around the president. The fourth layer of protection is furthest from the president, and they are snipers who are ambushed on the roof, ready to eliminate those who threaten the president's personal safety.
Putin's bodyguards always carry two things, one is a nine-millimeter pistol, which can penetrate an armored vest within 50 meters and a car within 100 meters. The second is pockets and briefcases, which are actually foldable bulletproof guards.
In addition, since Putin is the number one target of assassination by Chechen terrorists, presidential agents are even equipped with heavy firepower weapons such as bazookas in case they are needed.
When they were chatting here, Putin was summing up the national defense work in the past six months, and he believed that in the nearly six months since he assumed the functions and powers of the president, the national defense work was extremely difficult, but there was great progress, and then the situation of the army and its leadership was not commensurate with the various Q standards and the tasks facing Russia.
When talking about the anti-terrorist operation against Chechnya, Putin said that the I-1 has destroyed the main force of the militants, but it is necessary to destroy all the militants in the DPRK and the DPRK, and that the anti-terrorist operation should be carried out to the end and the energy should be shifted to solving economic problems, which is the focus of future work.
At the same time, he also revealed that in the anti-terrorist activities in Chechnya in the past six months, the Russian Ministry of Defense has sacrificed more than 600 people, and we can make a comparison: Russia kills 30,000 people a year due to road traffic accidents, and fires kill more than 100,000 people every year. Nevertheless, Putin believes that the human losses in Chechnya are extremely heavy and should not be won at any cost, and combat losses must be reduced, most of which are due to a low level of professionalism.
He also said that the main task of the army is to implement strategic containment and prevent aggression, and the 6 Army and the Navy should be ready in all strategic directions to quell all military conflicts and aggression. He stressed that the armed forces should use the latest weapons and methods, and systematically equip themselves with new weapons and technical equipment, but Russia is currently lagging behind in field communications, automation, intelligence systems, and other aspects.
Putin also expressed dissatisfaction with the financial problems of the armed forces, saying that the scale of financial appropriations should be determined in the current year and allocated according to the expenditure items, but the current system of allowances for military personnel is too outdated and inefficient. He criticized the Ministry of Finance, instructing them to immediately introduce a new mechanism for guaranteeing the payment of allowances, converting in-kind allowances for servicemen into salaries and monetary allowances from the federal budget, and said that a special working group would be responsible for the matter.
"This man is very powerful, isn't he?" Fan Wuxian listened to the interpreter give him a quick briefing on Putin's speech, and at the same time expressed his opinion.
"In fact, for our intelligence officers, it is more tricky to deal with such an alternative president." The military attache said to Fan Wuxian with some helplessness.
Fan Wuxian nodded, of course he can understand the distress of the embassy staff, in fact, the embassy is an intelligence center stationed abroad, and the military attache is the person in charge of specific intelligence activities, but for Putin, he is a master of agents, so some work is not very easy to carry out.
▲ But that's okay, everyone is helpless against President Oh Ross, which is not a bad thing for us, because everyone can't see through him, so it is difficult to form a relatively strong diplomatic relationship between Russia and the West, and China, as a traditional culture, obviously prefers to see this kind of situation. Fan Wuxian said to the military attaché.
Since the other side is more difficult to deal with, then for either side is the same problem, everyone has a headache is always much better than Russia (8 to any country. There are no pop-ups
