Fall in love with you reading the book network 630book, the fastest update of the godfather of the Soviet Union Yeltsin's anger is not unfounded, in fact, it has now been two full days since the initial explosion in Chernobyl.
And everyone, including General Secretary Gorbachev, knew about it for less than 20 hours.
Why is it necessary to convene a meeting of all officials in Moscow at the level of deputy ministers and above in the middle of the night, because according to the speculation of experts from the Ministry of Nuclear Industry, the core of the current Chernobyl 4 reactor has melted down and is in danger of exploding at any time.
Under such circumstances, the Politburo should be anxious for all the officials to come up with a countermeasure.
Today's unconventional meeting was unusually efficient, because time waits for no one.
General Secretary Gorbachev even omitted his opening remarks, and the experts from the Ministry of Nuclear Industry, who were invited to the meeting, tried their best to explain the current situation in Chernobyl in a way that ordinary people could understand.
"I'm sorry, can you interrupt me" Seryosha suddenly stood up and interrupted the other party's speech.
Gorbachev saw that Seryosha stood up, not angry, and he signaled Seryosha to speak freely "Comrades of the Ministry of Nuclear Industry, it is impossible for all of us here to understand what is happening in Chernobyl, we are all at the level of schoolchildren on the nuclear issue.
I would like to ask you to tell me bluntly what Chernobyl needs right now."
"We need borax, boron carbide, lead powder, radiation suits, a lot of liquid nitrogen, large oil drilling equipment, and a lot of cement and concrete," the experts from the Ministry of Nuclear Industry listed them one by one, and most of the officials present carefully recorded the relief materials listed by the experts.
"Why do you need oil drilling equipment, what specifications do you need, and how many units do you need?"
said the Minister of Petroleum Industry, who immediately spoke when he heard the expert talk about something about himself.
"We need to inject liquid nitrogen into the soil below core 4 to keep it at a temperature below -100 degrees Celsius, so that the melted core does not continue to settle and pollute the groundwater."
"We have a batch of borax in the Ministry of Chemical Industry, right in Odessa" "Our special trains and transport fleets from the Ministry of Transport can be ready in two hours" Under Seryosha's transfer, the meeting lasted only half an hour and basically clarified the responsibilities of each department.
At this moment, no matter how perfunctory things are, everyone who is doing it knows what should be done to avoid a greater catastrophe in Chernobyl.
Because if there is a nuclear explosion at reactor No. 4, it will not only be a problem for the Soviet Union, but also for the whole of Eastern Europe and even the Baltic coast, as well as Turkey.
Most of Ukraine and Belarus will henceforth become off-limits to humanity.
"Comrades, on behalf of the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation and the Bank of Foreign Trade, I would like to urgently provide 10 billion rubles of funds to Chernobyl, and we will properly supervise the use of this money."
Seryosha said at the end of the meeting.
At this emergency meeting, the leading role was not played by the top leader of the country like Gorbachev, but by officials like Seryosha, who were all officials in charge of specific operations at the highest level of the Soviet Union, and most of them were very familiar with the areas they were responsible for.
Gorbachev was not dissatisfied with Seryosha's overstepping, on the contrary, he admired Seryosha's actions.
Because he could have imagined what the meeting would have been like without Seryosha's surprise speech, and it might have been held until the next morning without the slightest progress.
What's more, Seryosha is a cadre he single-handedly raised.
After the meeting, Chairman of the Council of Ministers Ryzhkov rushed to the Ukrainian city of Pripyat on a special plane.
Chernobyl's location is very important, it is close to the Pripyat River, surrounded by important agricultural regions, the river network is abundant, and the Pripyat River is the upper source of the Dnieper River, and if the radiation spreads into the Pripyat River, Dnepropetrovsk may also be in danger.
Therefore, even according to the rough speculation of experts from the Ministry of Nuclear Industry, in order to prevent Chernobyl radiation from spreading further through the water to a larger area, a series of dikes will be built in the rivers around Chernobyl to block the contaminated waters.
The rough estimate of the budget at this meeting alone is already astronomical.
This was a headache for the Central Bank of the Soviet Union, which was already struggling financially.
This fund from the Foreign Trade Bank has indeed solved the urgent need.
Seryosha is not a stingy person, money is earned and spent.
In the past few days, Seryosha's move to invest in the yen has caused the Foreign Trade Bank's funds to rise sharply, and the floating profit has reached as high as $700 billion so far.
If this money is only used for personal luxury, even Seryosha will not be able to spend it in ten lifetimes.
Therefore, Seryosha did not intend to let VTB stay out of the Chernobyl incident, he wanted to contribute to the country as much as he could.
Seryosha took a large number of business experts from the Foreign Trade Bank and rushed to Ukraine, and his target was not Pripyat, but Dnepropetrovsk, a key Ukrainian town located thousands of miles away from Pripyat.
In the current situation, even Kyiv, the capital of Ukraine, is also shrouded in the shadow of nuclear radiation, and there is no need for Seryosha to go into danger alone.
And Dnepropetrovsk, now under the management of the Tymoshenko family, is already the easiest region of Seryosha to control in Ukraine.
Seryosha intends to place the place of capital turnover of the Disaster Relief Commission in Dnepropetrovsk.
Seryosha spent a week in Moscow mobilizing people to raise money, and during that time, Gorbachev finally confessed to the Soviet people what had happened in Chernobyl.
Gorbachev was taken aback by the solemn protest from the Swedish government, and he could not believe that the radioactive fallout from Chernobyl had drifted into Swedish airspace, so it seemed that Moscow was no longer safe.
Seryosha did not want to harm his body and health because of nuclear radiation, but as a high-ranking Soviet official, he could not be forgiven by the Soviet people for hiding in the Far East or abroad at such a time.
So Seryosha hurriedly finished his work and rushed to the city of Dnepropetrovsk.
