Georgia, as the homeland of the great leader Stalin, the people here have a special affection for Stalin.
Stalin was born in Georgia to a Georgian mother and a native Georgian language, and his way of life was entirely Georgian.
He was the greatest man in Georgia who went out, and when he left Georgia he was just the son of a shoemaker, but when he came back to Georgia, he became one of the world's big three.
When Khrushchev came to power, the Soviet government began to implement a policy of de-Stalinization, and Stalin became a sinner of the Soviet Union, which made Georgians emotionally unacceptable, so on the third anniversary of Stalin's death, the generation of Georgian young people who grew up in the Stalin era spontaneously launched a tribute to Stalin against Khrushchev's condemnation and criticism of Stalin.
This ensued into mass demonstrations and demonstrations, and even Georgia was on the verge of independence from the Soviet Union, and even Georgian troops refused to carry out Khrushchev's orders to suppress it, until Moscow's troops stormed Tbilisi in tanks, and the unrest finally subsided, which became known as the Georgian March Incident.
Georgia was the most nationally independent of all the republics of the Soviet Union, and the majority of the population in the Republic of Georgia belonged to the Georgian ethnic group, while ethnic Russians became a minority here.
Georgia is the region where Shevardnadze has been operating for a long time, and after Shevardnadze left Georgia to serve as foreign minister in Moscow, Patiashvili became the new first secretary of Georgia, but Patiashvili soon found that the main leaders of Georgia were old courtiers left by Shevardnadze, and it was still Shevardnadze's people who had the final say.
So when Ligachev sent someone to Georgia to investigate the corruption of officials and the excessive concentration of power.
Patiashvili reported to Ligachev's subordinates about a series of problems related to Shevardnadze's cronyism, the formation of small groups to overthrow the party's leadership, and corruption.
At the instigation of Patiashvili, the investigation team actually began to investigate the matter, which made Shevardnadze's old subordinates swallow this breath.
As a result, the investigation team sent by Ligachev to Georgia completely became the enemies of the Shevardnadze faction, and they were stupidly mixed into the struggle of the local political factions, and the result naturally did not end well, and in just over a month, local officials and the investigation team broke out again and again, and the local officials did not cooperate with their investigation actions, which made it impossible for the investigation team to carry out its work in Georgia at all.
In Ligachev's opinion, how can Georgian local officials resist the investigation of the central government, and there is no royal law, so Ligachev warned the Georgian party committee, which in turn caused Shevardnadze's dissatisfaction, and under the secret instigation of Shevardnadze, Georgia's local powerful factions began to write letters to the central government, complaining that the person sent by Ligachev was called the investigation, In fact, it is the work of the Georgian Party committee, which picks the nose and eyes, and picks the bones in the eggs.
As the dispute escalated, the matter finally reached a meeting of the Politburo.
At this moment, the contradiction between Ligachev and Shevardnadze was completely made public.
Shevardnadze is not a lower-level cadre like Seryosha, he is a member of the Politburo of the Central Committee, Minister of Foreign Affairs, a leader of the party and the state, exactly the same level as Ligachev, but in the ranking of the party is slightly lower than Ligachev, the strength of the two can be said to be equal, but Ligachev is now a bit difficult to ride a tiger, he launched an anti-corruption campaign that has sent the son-in-law of the former leader of the country Brezhnev to prison, and died in the prison riots, Now, if Ligachev can't keep Shevardnadze down, then how convincing is his approach.
Thus, after Yeltsin was completely exiled by Gorbachev, Shevardnadze became Seryosha's new shield.
However, Seryosha and Shevardnadze only nodded at each other, and it is unlikely that Shevardnadze would cooperate with him like Yeltsin.
Shevardnadze's attack made Seryosha suddenly feel a bad breath in his heart.
Seryosha had been thinking about how to keep Yeltsin influential among the people even after he was forced to leave his job.
Seryosha soon came up with a new solution, which was to transfer the street politics of Western countries to the Soviet Union.
Thanks to Yakov's policy of openness, Yeltsin was still free to express his views and opinions in newspapers and the media, so Seryosha asked Komsomolskaya Pravda to start publishing Yeltsin's articles.
After receiving this suggestion, Yeltsin also began to think carefully about this new method, as a politician Yeltsin is still very young, and he does not want to be idle at home like this.
So Seryosha took the time to visit Yeltsin, who was completely unfamiliar with street politics and did not know what kind of articles he should publish in the newspapers.
"You are a senior cadre of the Central Committee, and you must be better at interpreting the various policies of the Central Committee than those professors who teach in schools, and if you are willing to condescend to contribute to the Komsomolskaya Pravda, I believe that many people will be interested in our Komsomol Pravda is a media for young people, and political commentary has always been our weakness, and I believe that with your help, Komsomol Pravda will definitely expand its readership," Seryosha patiently persuaded.
After discussions between the two, Yeltsin finally agreed to find time to write an article for Komsomolskaya Pravda.
The two discussed that Yeltsin planned to use his trip to the United States as a breakthrough to introduce some things about the economic and political systems of the United States.
"Seryosha, now that the world has changed, in the past, we let the media report on what we wanted, because all journalists know that their party membership, promotion, and housing are all in the hands of their superiors.
But now it's different, since wages have been allowed to float, many people have put income first, and the media has become emboldened, and in this respect, we have made progress," Yeltsin lamented.
"Yes, the way of the world has changed," Seryosha said, and he had already begun to think about the Komsomolskaya Pravda in his mind, and Yeltsin's words reminded him that Komsomol Pravda was a good hand, and why didn't he think of using it t1706231537:
