It was only when such a bombshell was dropped among the putschists that they realized how ridiculous they were doing, not to mention such a ridiculous statement as contacting Turkish President Demirel to ally Georgia and Turkey militarily. www.biquge.info The eyes of the Kremlin are not at all on him, and the Georgian national separatist forces are not qualified to be called opponents in his eyes, and they are looking at the entire member states. Now that I think about it, Yanayev's so-called purge and repression methods were simply a softness for dissidents in the member states, and what he really wanted to do was to weaken the power of the member states at the root.

Turning a member state into a federal member state of the United States deprives a host of reserved national political rights. Beishvili remembered that when Yanayev withdrew his troops, only the Far Eastern Military District was abolished, and the Caucasus, Leningrad, Central Asia, Kiev, and Belarus regions did not reduce the number of troops, but also transferred the abolished Far Eastern armies to the regions of the member states. From a series of actions of the Soviet Union, it can be seen that Yanayev is not reducing armaments in the real sense, but guarding against his own member countries!

But Beishvili understood too late, and just as he could figure it out, he was thrown into the prison of Vorkuta, which was used to hold ******, and spent the rest of his life alone in this dark cell. The failure to carry out the death penalty was not due to the mercy of Moscow, but to the fact that Moscow treated them more painfully than they died.

The case of the Georgian political rebellion group headed by Beishvili and Steiner was announced to be cracked, and the whole country was shocked when the case came out, and no one expected that Georgia, after experiencing two rebellions, would actually take the risk of carrying out a third time, and it was indeed the first front against Soviet rule.

The first secretaries of all the member states stared at Shushkevich with gloating, thinking that he would be severely punished by Moscow.

Indeed, at the very first moment of the incident, Shushkevich was called to Moscow by Yanayev, but he was received by Moscow on Red Square as a Hero of the Soviet Union.

"Thank you Comrade Shushkevich for everything you did for Moscow, I think the Central Committee will remember what you did. Comrade Shushkevich, I really worked hard for you. Yanayev shook his hand and smiled. But I was thinking about another thing in my heart, which member country would be more suitable to transfer this annoying guy to as the first secretary. After all, such cunning politicians are rare.

"Then the previous agreement between me and Moscow ......" Shushkevich cautiously probed, Yanayev's original request was that as long as Shushkevich was willing to cooperate with them, then Moscow would not be to blame for the past, and he would sit firmly in his position as the first secretary as always, enjoying the treatment of the state villa and free medical care.

"It's still valid." Yanayev nodded, "Comrade Shushkevich, I am a man who keeps his promises. I promised you that I would do it. But if you do such a thing, the Georgian side can't stay any longer, so how about I transfer you to other member countries? Like Azerbaijan, like Armenia or Estonia? ”

Shushkevich's heart was half cold, this is more unacceptable than atonement, these regions are all countries with complex ethnic composition or strong demands for independence, and Shushkevich, who is a traitor, will definitely be squeezed out by the local forces when he takes up the post of first secretary there.

Yanayev's method of killing people with a knife made Shushkevich swallow the bitter fruit himself, and the old fox could not even speak. In the face of Yanayev's absolute power and turbulent political methods, he is a guinea pig who is powerless to fight back.

In the face of Yanayev's absolute power and turbulent political methods, he is a guinea pig who is powerless to fight back. Yanaev's first murder with a knife made Shushkevich swallow the bitter fruit himself,

"Thanks to General Secretary Yanayev for his promotion, I will definitely do my best to satisfy Moscow and reassure the people in the member countries."

"I believe in your abilities, Comrade Shushkevich. Of course, I also hope that you will correct your statement that it is to reassure the people first, and then to the satisfaction of Moscow. And from now on there will be no such thing as a member of the Soviet Union. There are only Soviet autonomous regions. ”

Hearing this, Shushkevich could only agree to all Yanayev's demands with a wry smile, who called the general secretary of the Soviet Union who stood in front of him with the supreme power. As a result, Shushkevich was temporarily suspended. It seems that this is Moscow's punishment of the old fox, but in fact it is a preparation for his next subversion in the member countries. For Yanayev, people like Shushkevich are old foxes, even if they are not trustworthy, and they can send a little benefit to the other party at the right time, but they can eradicate potential destabilizing factors for themselves. Yanayev is still willing to accept such a deal.

The political crisis in Georgia was reported by all major Soviet newspapers, and Yanayev specially summoned the top leaders of all the member states to hold a meeting with them that was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Of course, it was not a friendly consultation with the wind and drizzle, but a strong repunge from the storm.

Yanayev's face was very ugly, and in the eyes of many of the first secretaries of the member states, it seemed like a rhythm that was about to explode. Sure enough, Yanayev's first sentence emphasized the purity of the class and the revolutionary ranks. It's outdated, but once it's emphasized, it means something is happening.

"I wonder how we can solve this problem once and for all, when everyone doesn't think much about the division of the Union States, when everyone is watching Shushkevich gloat, when everyone thinks that Georgia is going to be unlucky. Didn't anyone here think that the events in Georgia would not happen in your country? ”

"I think my methods are indeed too merciful, in what you call the Great Purge, I only executed the core people involved in the incident, and spared all those involved without conducting an in-depth investigation, but I can see from this Georgian incident that it is difficult to ensure the long-term stability of the member states without a thorough eradication operation."

"So I hope that you will go back and think carefully about which side you are prepared to take, whether you will be loyal to the Soviets or whether you will be in the league of others, and the Soviets will never let go of the enemy who tries to harm their homeland, never."

The unilateral gushing meeting of Yanayev ended with the uncertain faces of the delegates of various countries, and they vaguely felt that Yanayev was sending a vague signal to them.

After the first secretaries of the countries returned to their respective member states, the first tentative signal was sent by the Moscow newspaper that the Kremlin was going to amend the constitution, abolish the statehood of the member states, and turn them into a state of the Soviet Union. Just like the federal system in the United States, except that the Soviet Union had a much stricter control over the states than in the United States, and centralized power firmly suppressed local privileges.

At the same time, the Soviet media also began to emphasize a unified ethnic relationship in the Soviet Union, whether it is Russia, Belarus, Estonia, Lithuania and other nationalities, all of which essentially belong to the citizens of the Soviet Union and are all unified nations. The method of large-scale ethnic unification was adopted to suppress the independence of ethnic minorities.

The abolition of non-Russian privileges was the most brutal since the Stalin era. In the past, for the sake of national unity, they were all suppressing the main ethnic group, and then giving superior privileges to ethnic minorities. Since the Yanayev era, the tradition has changed, and although a lukewarm attitude towards ethnic Russians has been maintained, the repressive policy towards ethnic minorities has begun to manifest. Yanayev's high-pressure policy was aimed at all peoples, and in his eyes there were only two things, the mother of the state and the socialist system, and the other national independence fanaticism and grand chauvinism were all damned heretics.

The first secretaries of the major member states were not calm, and such a move was tantamount to cutting off their way of life, and the accusations against Yanayev were also raised, which instantly pushed the Moscow leadership to the forefront of public opinion.

Once again, the USSR faced a crisis in the member states. (To be continued.) )
