russian tennis player daniil medvedev has become one of three active players along with novak djokovic and carlos alcaraz with a percentage of victories on hard courts in grand slam tournaments over 80. this happened after another success of medvedev on the courts of flashing medows in the second round of the us open. last year's finalist of this tournament daniil played a very collected match against the hungarian fabian marazan. the russian, seeded here under number five, took the first two sets almost without problems 62-63. only in the third set did morozhan start playing on equal terms with daniil, constantly forcing him to move around the court. he was most determined in the tie-break, where the russian finally managed to beat fabian 7:5 from the fourth match point. in the next round, medvedev will face the italian flavio cabolli, the thirty-first racket in the world. it is unlikely that the dutchman bodick vandezaens hulp, who at the end of may occupied the 102nd place in the world rankings. having lost

to roland goroz at the start and decided to end his career, assumed that after only 3 months he would create perhaps the main sensation at another tournament of the grand slam series us open. in the second round, he got carlos alcaraz, the third racket of the world, whose winning streak before this meeting was 15 matches, as an opponent, but already the first set perplexed all fans of the spanish tennis player. carlos was able to take only one game on his serve, and botic - the dutchman managed to take the spaniard's serve, and then hold his 7:5. according to a similar scenario , events unfolded in the third set, the only difference being that vandezans hulp made the decisive break in the ninth game. in the end, 6:4. al-qaras was eliminated in the second round of a grand slam tournament for the first time since wimbledon 2021. in addition, the spaniards set

an anti-record in the 21st century. the previous case when not a single spanish tennis player remained in the third round of the men's singles draw at this tournament occurred in 1999. but there are four italians left at this stage of the tournament this time, including the world's number one racket yannick siner. in the second round, he confidently beat the representative of the usa alex michelsen, who is ranked forty-ninth in the world ranking. in just one hour and... sinera, his girlfriend, russian anna kalinskaya, she also made it to the third round, defeating her namesake, anna bonder from hungary, 62-64 in two sets. alas, following her older sister erika, seventeen-year-old mira andreeva also finished her performance here. in the second round, seeded under the twenty-first number, the russian woman quite quickly in just one. 5 minutes played against twenty-year-old

american ashlyn kruger in two sets 1:6-4-6. in the third round, kruger will play with another representative of our country, lyudmila samsonova. she, in turn , defeated marie bousky from the czech republic in a difficult match. the first set went to marie. she made two breaks and won 6:3. in the second set, everything was decided in a tie-break, where samsonova left no chance for her opponent 7:1. and in the third, lyudmila took marie's serve twice and ended this meeting. in her favor 6:3. for the first time in her career , anastasia potapova is reaching the third round of the us open. in the second round, the twenty-three-year-old russian met with thirty-eight-year-old american varvara lepchenko, who had passed through qualification. anastasia, currently ranked 38th in the world, won in two sets 6:3, 6:4. silver medalist of the paris olympics in doubles diana schneider is also among the participants in the 1/16 finals of the us open. the russian won.

alexander sobolev has officially moved from spartak to zenit. the contract of the twenty-seven-year-old striker with the st. petersburg team is for three seasons with the possibility of extension for one more. let us remind you that sobolev has played for spartak since 2020. as part of the moscow team, he became a silver prize winner of the championship and the winner

of the russian cup. in total, alexander played 140 games for the red-and-whites and scored 58 goals. madrid. real in the third round of the spanish championship went to the canary islands to visit the local club las palmas. the meeting began with an unexpected goal by the hosts, alberto moleira scored. only in the middle of the second half did the royal club manage to recoup. the penalty, appointed for a handball, was clearly executed by venicius. however, real could not achieve more. in the end , the madrid team also conceded, but the goal was jaime mate was not counted due to an offside position. the game ended in a 1-1 draw. girona beat assassuna 4-0 on their home field. the highlight of the match was the hosts' third goal, scored by abel ruiz with such a spectacular strike. it should be noted that for the catalans , last season's bronze medalists, this is their first victory in the current championship. the most spectacular goals

can sometimes be seen in matches between football clubs that don't grab stars from the sky in their national championships. walter bou, a forward for the modest argentine lanus , created a real masterpiece in the game against tigers. the diving overhead kick is well worth a nomination for the puskas award for the best goal of the year. in the brazilian championship, goals scored with a cross-country kick are also not uncommon. a real master class in the execution of this difficult trick was demonstrated by vittoria striker alerando in the match against cruzeiro. the opposing goalkeeper could only watch the ball go by. in the japanese championship, the brazilians also surprise fans with incredible technique. what is at least this goal by vitor buena worth. osyka's midfielder in the game against kyoto received the ball on the approaches to the penalty area, feinted past the defender and shot straight into the top corner.

forward erison from the kawasaki club had been unable to score for almost six months, but then finally managed to score a goal, and what a goal. in the game with yokohama, he adjusted to the ball perfectly. an irresistible shot from the volley. and even in the matches of the second japanese division, legionnaires from brazil organize a real football carnival. defender pereira, who plays for the oita club, scored a goal with his heel in the match with kumamoto. even in such exotic tournaments as the bolivian championship, you can sometimes see fantastic goals. rodrigo amaral, a player from the jorge wilsterman club, caught the goalkeeper of gubaira by surprise with a shot from the center of the field. in the saudi arabian star league , not a single round goes by without beautiful goals. sergey milinkovic savic from al-hillal, a recognized master of free kicks. his goal in the match with the al-ohdud club was recognized by fans as the best in the past month. maria rumyantseva, sports news, channel one.

and states from thirty-ninth to forty the sixth year, that is, the entire second world war , he successfully led intelligence. under his leadership, intelligence was able to obtain information about the imminent start of the war, unravel the direction of the main attacks of the german troops, save the lives of stalin, churchill and roosevelt. the abwehr could not miss such an opportunity, to settle accounts with the leaders of the anti-hitler coalition at once. to disrupt separate negotiations between the nazis and american intelligence services,

to understand the importance of atomic research before anyone else to ensure the nuclear safety of the country. our physicists were very grateful to foreign intelligence for the information they supplied. until recently, his very name was a state secret; even his close ones had no idea about his real place of work. and at the same time, everyone had heard of him. the phrase "eustace alex from the cult film has become popular." eustace was the operational pseudonym of colonel isaev stirlitz. the call sign alex hid the head of soviet intelligence. in fact , his name was pavel fittin. slow.

in the year of the centenary of the foreign intelligence service, we declassified a large number of materials related to the period of the great patriotic war war, among them, of course, the coded telegrams received by the center from the residencies, on them the resolution. signed with the initials pf, pavel fitin. during the war years, he raised the domestic foreign intelligence to, one might say, an unattainable level. in real life , the head of soviet intelligence had a different operational pseudonym. not alex, victor. only the heads of residencies had the right to send coded messages to victor. but even these superhumans knew for messages by name. victor must be a really serious reason,

here are the codes of the telegram, which was declassified quite recently, this is a message from berlin, from the sergeant major, information received that all military measures for an attack on the soviet union. fully prepared, a strike can be expected at any time. the sergeant major is our valuable source in berlin, and fitin's resolution. urgently inform the central committee, the people's commissariat of foreign affairs, comrade beria. this cipher came from berlin to moscow on the morning of june 16, 1941, and the next day it was received. state security in sevalod merkulov and the head

of foreign intelligence pavel fitin. here is what pavel fitin himself wrote about this visit. approaching large table, stalin, without raising his head , said: "i have read your report. it turns out that germany is going to attack the soviet union. we are silent. finally, stopping in front of us, he asked: "what kind of person is he?", reported. this information, we were ready to answer this question, and i gave a detailed description of our source. there was a long pause. stalin, approaching his desk , turned to us, said: disinformation, you may go free. the return of the chief from the owner, as stalin was called, was waiting without

analysis of incoming data, intelligence would be swamped by the flow of information, but stalin preferred to draw conclusions himself. stalin, and this was his position, he himself insisted that information be reported to him. as if in its pure form without corrections and edits, and he himself would make a decision on the totality of those messages that he would read, only over time, when the volume of ... data received increased several times, and intelligence proved its competence and objectivity in practice, stalin agreed to accept analytical notes, as a result, stalin began to read analytical documents, and not process the first sources that came from all over the world. in order to increase

the speed of decision-making, in intelligence or in war, every minute counts, fittin also changed the form of presenting the material. first the conclusion, then the arguments, it was always the other way around. what does this give? the boss looked, if he understood, he has to look further, no need to waste time. the next day, june 18, a coded message flew from moscow to berlin with instructions to check the data received by the employees of the ministry aviation of the third reich, hara schulzaboysan. this was his agent pseudonym, starshina. he never received an answer from the berlin center, life itself gave him one. june 22, 1941, exactly at 4:00 in the morning.

yuri kolesnikov, an illegal intelligence officer during the great. june early in the morning he received a call to his dacha in the tarasovka area, asking him to urgently go to moscow to report to stalin. when he entered the people's commissariat, the duty officer informed him that german troops had crossed the border of the ussr. fittin later admitted to me that if the germans had postponed the offensive for at least a day, then i, probably would not have been alive. and he was not being disingenuous, stalin did not forgive inaccuracies. from the memoirs of pavel fitin. in the thirties , a climate of mistrust and suspicion developed towards many chekists. mainly towards

the leading employees, not only of the central apparatus, but also of the residencies of the foreign department abroad, they were accused of treason and subjected to repression. during 1938-39, almost all of iyono's residents abroad were recalled to moscow, and many of them were repressed. of the 450 full-time employees of foreign intelligence by mid-1938 more than half of the year, 275 people, were repressed. some residents broke ties and left. remember the same feldbin, aka orlov, who was our resident in spain, who left, and the horror is that when an intelligence officer leaves, he can betray someone, the resident disappeared, contact with

the agents was lost, the channels for receiving information collapsed, the work of which from... the birthplace of the great-grandfather, the village of ozhogina, a distant ural village, it was there that the events took place that formed fitin's character, tempered him, showed him the direction, there were such here are the treper points, there was a difficult moment when the choice was between life and death, these are very difficult feelings, perhaps it

was after this story that the phrase that he often repeated later, it was his... in front of everyone, they beat him like a scoot, they hit him on the head with a hammer, they saved the bullets, there were no bullets, his father and uncle, the leaders of the commune, decided to kill last, so that

they would suffer, looking at how people who believed in the new government were dying, and although he was not yet 14 years old, pavel understood: there would be no mercy, it was 1921, here all the crumbs i have, her brother was killed. on the steppe naroginsky, then, that's who for the whites, who for the reds, and there were all sorts. fate decreed otherwise, in the morning the barn gates were thrown open by a red army soldier, who freed ozhogin, who knows what would have happened if the rescue had been late even for a day, the fate of the whole country could have turned out differently. we will talk about yulian semyonov, he is famous first of all for the fact that his heroes. sterlet became a cult character of russian literature. and i will ask you to stay, he flew up like a meteor, he is friends with everyone, everyone loves him,

let out abroad, what do you mean, writers hated him? he was incredibly charming, with all his stories, fights, boxing, it was not worth offending, bullying, attacking, somehow aggressively behaving towards yulian semyonov, he could easily fight. i can't live without you, prime minister, from monday

on the first. the village of ozhogino, the very north of the kurgan region, from the once large peasant family of the fitins there is almost no one left here. hello, i am pavel, pavel andreevich fitin. hello. are you also a fitin? nice to meet you. and you and i, then. are relatives, apparently, but it is not clear what kind, there were so many fittings here , we had a lot of fittings, my great-grandfather vasily had 18 of them, and how many tafetins are left now, so

now, probably, i am the only one left, ekaterina alexandrovna remembers the civil war mainly from her mother's stories, but even the fitin family history preserves echoes of that terrible time, when brother went against brother, in one ... and i, probably, the father, and all of us in the family, always try to count ourselves, not relying on someone's help, this is probably the main thing, by the age of 30 pavel fitin

graduated from the engineering faculty of the temeriazev academy, joined the party and served in the army, after university fidin was going to become a designer of agricultural machinery. suddenly, after graduating from the institute, invitations or appointments were not very asked there agricultural publishing house to head this technical or industrial editorial office, but 1938 came and life changed its trajectory abruptly, then a decision was made on the organs weakened by repressions. there to send or call there about 800 people with higher education with incomplete higher education communists-komsomol members, what was

done?

stiftina, his colleagues were able to see for themselves almost immediately. in the autumn of thirty-eighth year, pavel sudaplatov, at that time, acting head of foreign intelligence, was accused of connections with enemies of the people. sudaplatov wanted to be expelled from the party, which could have been his first step down the corridor, at the end of which there is a wall. the party bureau voted for expulsion unanimously. only one person did not raise his voice

hand, abstained.

they were recruited by the comintern intelligence officer arnold deitch back in the first half of the thirties. leaving england in september of '37, deitch put the agents on ice. he had to negotiate terms with them that worked many years later. it's not that easy, that means they had to remember it, but he characterized them all, that they sincerely believe in us, they think that we are reliable, that we are not afraid of anyone, that we are always there, that we will not leave anyone in trouble. during the time spent without communication, the members of the cambridge five rose through the ranks. donald maclean worked in the british foreign office. blunt and kern cross were counterintelligence officers.

the intelligence services believed the cambridge five, but fittin was sure that the truth would always find its way. in september 1939, world war ii began. one after another, european countries fell under the onslaught of the german war machine. poland, denmark, norway, belgium, france. at this time, fittin made several trips abroad.

the main one was to germany, where there was no communication red chapel. this is what is important: after fitin’s visit, contacts with the red chapel were restored with breitenbach. a piano transmitter, a rodist-pianist, is not an invention of yulian semyonov. such jargon really existed in german counterintelligence. an entire orchestra, or chapel in german, was in contact with moscow. these were resistance groups scattered across hitler-occupied europe, from france and belgium to the capital of the third reich, berlin. breitenbach’s agent, willy lehmann, was a gestapo officer.

more than 200 people were sent. in the very first during the war, foreign intelligence effectively went into a barracks regime. qualified intelligence officers were sent to large cities captured by the germans. these were rare specialists who had real experience of illegal work. their dispatch behind the front line and the organization of the partisan movement was supervised by fitin's deputy pavel sudaplatov, and already in june of 1941 he headed a special group, which later grew into the fourth directorate of the nkvd.

there was a division, so to speak, of spheres of influence, in quotation marks. sudaplatov was responsible for work on occupied territory, and fitin, as... his final leader, he signed the document. fitin and sudaplatov managed to find a brilliant tactical solution. together with the scout, a sabotage group was sent into the rear of the germans, the task of which was to become the center of the partisan movement in the occupied territory. this is exactly how our famous scout nikolai kuznetsov worked, whom we know as the commander of the partisan detachment, but he was also engaged in organizing

hero of the soviet union dmitry medvedev we partisan movement in the occupied territories. here is one of the reports that was sent to the center by dmitry medvedev and which was also declassified quite recently. recently, during the work we have instructed, activated partisan detachments: koletnyansky, there were 70, became 180 people, sokolova, there were 20, became 150, all at the expense of those in the encirclement, the fighters of the detachment of the winners created many new partisans.

only a few people remain, and how many of them have access to secret documents, nine, she is part of the narrowed circle, yes, and introduce me to olga winter, help, help, if you understand. oh, bosch candles, where did you get them? i bought them abroad. and what if the conflict, the break with her husband and with... with a blockhead, a reliable person, with an impeccable reputation, this is just a screen, nothing will come of it, why? the fact that russians feel a leak of information, this is really serious, but our interest in winter should not cast a shadow on her, if

she is not involved in the matter, the legendary multi-part film based on the novel by julian semenova, today tomorrow, on the first. 1943 was one of the most difficult and tense years for intelligence, it began with the defeat of the germans and their allies at stalingrad. the red army was advancing against the backdrop of the first such large-scale encirclement operation in the history of world war ii, when more than 300 thousand german troops, romanians and italians.

it was here that the germans tried to take revenge for stalingrad. führer's headquarters april 15 , 1943, top secret, for command only. operational order. number six. i decided, as soon as conditions allow weather to carry out operation citadel, the first offensive of the year. this offensive is of decisive importance. it should give us the initiative for the spring and summer of this year. the victory at kursk should be a torch for the whole world. this order was signed by hitler on april 15. and a few days before that , a meeting was also held in stalin's office, where they discussed.

germans in positional defensive battles, stalin hesitated. in order to decide whether to attack or defend, intelligence must have its say. and here the shot was fired information received by one of the members of the cambridge five, john cairncross. thanks to cairncross, on april 14 , 1943, information was received about the signing.

grabbing the telegram of colonel general weiss, it indicated the direction of the kursk-belgorod attack. knowing the direction of the main german attack, the general staff was able to correctly build a defense strategy for the kursk salient and ensure a rapid transition to the offensive. when the german troops reached prokhor and saw our tanks, for them it was a complete surprise, losses

germans on the kursk salient about half a million people, the wehrmacht was never able to recover from this blow, the front rolled to the west, the merit of the intelligence officers in this is far from the last. after stalingrad and kursk, it became clear that the victory of the ussr was only a matter of time. the time had come to determine what the post-war world would be like. the place of the first meeting of the big three, stalin, roosevelt and churchill, was tehran. there was only one complication. since pre-war years , iran had been drawn into the orbit of influence of the third reich. the government structures of iran were literally stuffed with german agents. but the message that intelligence.

nikolai ivanovich kuznetsov. our intelligence officer worked in the german rear under the name paul zibbert. at the same time, he met major ulrich von ortel, who served in the special units of the reich's foreign intelligence. in one of the conversations, the major let it slip that...

the germans called the operation to eliminate the leaders of the big three a long jump. the embassies of the soviet union and great britain in tehran were surrounded by a solid ring of soldiers, and intelligence officers were formed mobile groups that were searching for saboteurs from kartsen. one of the tasks was solved by georgi andreevich's group in ratanya. they managed to identify some of the people who appeared.

the main issue of the tehran conference was the opening of a second front. churchill tried to do everything possible to delay this event. when churchill began to dodge once again, to say that well, in forty

-four, if it works out, if some conditions coincide and so on, stalin stood up and threw. moltov and varoshilov, we are here there's nothing to do, we're going back home, we have so much to do there, and here there's simply nothing to waste this time, well, roosevelt managed to mix up the situation. stalin knew that roosevelt, the united states, were extremely interested in the soviet union entering the war with japan together with the united states. after... he verbally promised roosevelt this, well, roosevelt was categorically not interested in disrupting the negotiations. as a result, the second front was opened six months after the meeting in tehran, the meeting itself took place mainly according to the soviet scenario, largely thanks to

foreign intelligence work. in the early spring of 1945, soviet intelligence received information that negotiations were underway in switzerland between the anglo-american allies and nazi germany. stalin made an accurate diagnosis, the allies do not behave like that. from the correspondence between stalin and roosevelt, personally, top secret from marshal. stalin, to president roosevelt. at this moment, the germans on the western front have effectively stopped the war against england and america. at the same time, the germans continue the war with russia, an ally of england and the usa. it is clear, that such a situation could in no way serve the cause of maintaining the strengthening of trust between

our countries. the germans were represented at the negotiations by ss general karl wolff. allied intelligence resident in europe, future head of the cia, alain dals. however, this was far from the first attempt at a separate conspiracy behind the back of the ussr. on may 10, 1941 , british pilots intercepted a lone misser schmidt over northern england, whose pilot bailed out after landing. all documents related to the hess case in england are still classified. however, with svr documents on this historic flight the secrecy classification was recently lifted. rudolf,

the third man in the hierarchy of hitler's germany according to the nazis, fled to england. but from the documents of the soviet foreign intelligence, it follows that he was sent to london to conduct negotiations that were supposed to save germany from waging a war on two fronts. here is what he reported.

the war was coming to an end, the western allies were concerned about what would come next. there was fear of the russian advance. you know, landowners, entrepreneurs, the factory owners, they didn't want to be dispossessed of their land. they didn't want a communist system to be established in britain. churchill writes about this in his diaries. churchill writes bluntly. frankly, in light of the spread of the red army in europe, the nazi danger in my

eyes now gives way to the soviet threat. churchill instructed his staff to work out operation unthinkable, the goal of which was to attack the ussr immediately after the end of the war with germany. operation unthinkable showed that churchill was going to fight us... us immediately after end of the war with germany, and perhaps even without waiting for germany to capitulate. the calculations of british staff officers say that the anglo-american troops stationed in europe will not be enough to resist the red army, so one of the points of the plan is unthinkable - the use of old german divisions in a new war. the british americans in the occupied territory were quite loyal to those german troops that surrendered to them, and that they were planning to use them in their own

interests. about the existence of the plan of operation unthinkable, soviet intelligence learned even during the process of its preparation. this explains the insistence with which stalin speaks about the need to stop separate negotiations or to allow representatives of the ussr to participate in them. for his part, roosevelt tries to calm stalin. insists that he was simply misinformed, from the correspondence between stalin and roosevelt, personally and strictly secret for marshal stalin from president roosevelt. i cannot help but feel extreme indignation towards your informants, whoever they may be, in connection with such a vile, incorrect description of my actions and the actions of my trusted subordinates. i am absolutely confident in my sources, stalin returned to this issue twice or three times directly,

almost verbatim, my informants have been repeatedly tested in business, their information, from my point of view, deserves complete trust. this, by the way, is related to the question of how stalin's attitude to intelligence changed. if at the beginning of the war stalin doubted intelligence reports, then in victorious forty-fifth he was ready to accuse the us president of lying, relying on information obtained by intelligence. and this was pavel fitin's personal victory. the pinnacle of his achievements. in february 2020 , one of the caucasian peaks was named after pavel fitin. located in the allania national park. it is deeply symbolic that this happened in the year

of the seventy-fifth anniversary of the great victory in the year. the centennial anniversary of domestic foreign intelligence, this symbolizes the highest professionalism, true patriotism that marked both the life and professional destiny of pavel fitin. on february 29, 2020 , the climbers who climbed this peak, brought a portrait with them on...

the atomic bomb, the personal file of man x. premiere, tomorrow on the first.

in september 1941, john kernck, one of the members of the cambridge five, sent a document of particular importance to moscow, a report of the uranium committee, an organization that was engaged in the creation of atomic weapons in england. the information itself was alarming, since it was about the creation of a new, completely powerful, destructive weapon. the message confirmed the worst fears. creation. the germans are rushing to moscow, leningrad is already in blockade, kiev will fall soon, minsk has long been taken, the baltics, almost all of it has been passed, that

is, complete horror, in this situation. suddenly fitin declares that it is necessary to engage in an atomic project. in fact, it was not, suddenly. soviet intelligence had been monitoring the uranium topic for several years. experiments and research related to the fission of the atomic nucleus were very popular in science in the first third of the 20th century. but suddenly, at the end of the thirties , all articles about this promising direction disappeared from the foreign scientific press, as if on command. this is evidence that some works were classified. in 1939 , foreign intelligence officer leonid kvastnikov drew attention to this. fittin assessed the importance of this information. in the same year, 1939, he appointed kvastnikov head of the scientific and technical intelligence department. he paid great attention to

scientific and technical intelligence. i understand that this is also very important. at the same time as intelligence , scientists spoke about the need to resume research. the future academician flerov twice addressed stalin with an indication that, that this work is being done abroad. and we need to develop it on our part too. specifically in practical, military terms. the situation changed when roosevelt and churchill agreed to create a superweapon together. england was being bombed, so building uranium plants in great britain was too risky. in august of 1942, the manhattan project was launched in the united states. that's what the americans called the top-secret nuclear weapons development program. information began

to come in from sources in the united states that things were starting there. in the spring of 1943, the academy of sciences created secret laboratory number two, the future kurchatov institute. then in the spring, fittin sent leonid kvastnikov to the united states. his mission was almost impossible. to penetrate los alamos, the main top-secret laboratory of the manhattan project. the contribution of intelligence to solving the problem of atomic weapons and their creation by the soviet union was invaluable. it... outlined completely new guidelines, made it possible to avoid many technical errors. this operation was called "enormus", which in english means something

monstrous. the first soviet atomic bomb rds-1 was created in sorov, a closed city 400 km from moscow. the role of intelligence is great, indisputable, this was noted by all the physicists who participated in this, it is enough to come to the nuclear weapons museum in sorov and see how intelligence worked. in 1946 , a decision was made to create an atomic industry facility in the gorky region. the village of sorov disappeared from topographic maps for years, the name "base 112" appeared in secret documents. no experiments should have been done, when some of the unauthorized or especially children asked, what do we have there that sometimes sounds like that, they were explained, there the forest is uprooted, the stumps

are knocked out in this way, and these were explosions, testing of charges. rds-1 is an exact copy of the american bomb fat man, which fell on nagosaki. one of the cases made for it is still stored in ... stalin personally ordered to copy the american device. there was simply no time to test our own scheme. the first bomb, well, let's be honest, it is a simple primitive device that was tested, that it is possible to create nuclear weapons. and then it was created, which does not resemble the first one at all. this one, it is a completely different weight, different. dimensions, everything is neat, miniature , 10 times more powerful. july 16, 1945, the day the world entered the atomic age. to emphasize

who is the boss in the changed world, the united states conducted the first nuclear weapon test on the eve of the us-usa conference. stalin's reaction to... president truman's report on the successful nuclear weapons tests was surprisingly calm. stalin smelled there the troupe said, well, okay. stalin's calmness was easy to explain. he knew about everything that was happening inside the manhattan project. and he was sure that the ussr was ready to create its own nuclear weapons. and when, 4 years later , in 1940, the ussr conducted its own successful tests, it was a real shock for the west. they were sure that they had 10 or even 15 years in reserve. neither the americans, nor the british, no one knew anything. why?

they managed to hide everything, how did they manage to hide it? here is a clear fig, here is his role clearly. in 2017 year , a bronze figure appeared at the mansion of the foreign intelligence service on ostozhenka. in military uniform, pavel fiten was given the honor and great responsibility of heading soviet foreign intelligence during the difficult years of world war ii, and the information obtained by soviet intelligence officers, of course, greatly helped bring the day of the great victory closer to creating a nuclear missile shield for the homeland. this is the smile of a winner, his pseudonym was victor, also a winner, he was one of the first to learn that the war was over, at night he threw on a car, went out into the street and simply

was glad that the fascists had finally been defeated and the capitulation had been signed. his service in the state security organs ended as unexpectedly as it had begun. in march 1953, stalin died, beria was arrested in june, and in july they came for fittin.

pavel fitin passed away in 1971, he was only 63 years old. in 2020, pavel fitin's name appeared on the map of moscow. one of the streets in the moscow district of yaseneva was named in honor of the head of foreign intelligence. in recent years, we have done a lot to... the caucasus ridge, bears his name, and he is named after is also one of the streets in moscow. pavlan had one of the previously nameless peaks of the big complicated fate, and he often said that the truth will find itself. and

it seems to me that it is deeply symbolic that today employees of the russian foreign intelligence service go to work along the street named after pavel fitin, in this the truth has found itself.

in the ministry of foreign affairs of the ussr, the government of the republic of nagonya asks the soviet union for urgent economic assistance. there is a threat of direct military aggression from the territory neighboring traziland, where armed groups are being formed along the snagonia border under the guidance of cia advisers with the aim of overthrowing the legitimate government of george grisso. the separatists are led by general mario agana. in louisbourg, right-wing newspapers are preparing public opinion for a possible military coup in neighboring nagonia. george grisso declared: if we do not receive help from the soviet union, our revolution is doomed. ussr ambassador to nagonia, mikhail aleshin.

please, mr. ambassador, thank you.

hello, mr. ambassador, greetings you, mr. neromin, good afternoon, good afternoon, hello, hello, good afternoon, hello, please, thank you, mr. ambassador, i have invited you to express to you, on behalf of the leadership of the ministry... serious concern about the events taking place in the republic of nagonia. according to reliable information we have, a military coup is being prepared in that country with the aim of overthrowing the legitimate government headed by prime minister george grisso. mr. counselor, it is not necessary to record the conversation. you will be given the text of an oral statement on this matter. please. according to our information,

the preparation of the coup is being carried out with the knowledge and support of the government of the united states of america. and the implementation of this. illegal actions are entrusted directly to the central intelligence agency of your country. you saw, mr. ieryomin, i must tell you that i have every reason to believe that the statement of the soviet side has no real basis. the surges are indeed complex processes, but they are due to the internal problems of the country and the desire of the people to get rid of the hated criso regime, my government has nothing to do with this, but i assure you that i will immediately bring to the attention of my government the text of your statement, in

the shortest possible time you will receive answers to all the questions you have asked. i urge you to do this as soon as possible, since the facts that we have, mr. ambassador, completely refute the point of view you have expressed. tas is authorized to make a an official statement on this matter.

in the new season on the first, no, no need, it's just that no one met me, and i met you, there is. ninel - the premiere of the multi-part film from monday on the first, thank you, robert taras, we will play, i think it will not be a revelation for you if i allow myself to remind you that intelligence will not conduct a radio monologue for a year, there is a reverse.

this is the damage done to us, and the later we neutralize the spy, the higher the price we will pay to compensate for this damage. that's it. now i will acquaint you with a special message, which the management just handed over to me. today at 5:00 a.m., while crossing to the shores of louisburg, the transport ship academician chesnakov, registered in the port of odessa with cargo for nagoniya, exploded. the ship left murmansk. having on board agricultural machinery, trucks and medicines,

several crew members died, it seems to me that after the death of the ship, slavin is being clever in his department, you have another version that has burst, and the spy is destroying people, equipment, you can’t find it, so tell us, we will leave others, slavin is worthy. as for me, i am not ready to give a definite answer yet, i have one option, and in a few days, i could wait, but the enemy is not giving us time for this, the leadership of the committee is expecting the most decisive actions from us, sit down, it seems to me that this action is an initiative of the cia. in the end, the government should not have sanctioned this kind of shamelessness, because one way or another everything will become clear. the situation

is very serious, konstantin ivanovich. the persecution is on the verge of a coup. if agana overthrows griso, the americans will immediately deploy their bases that they dismantled after the fall of colonialism. i think their new missiles will make the south of ukraine, transcaucasia and. possibly part of central asia vulnerable, so we will have to deploy a counter-defensive program, and what does that mean? a new round of the arms race, no more, no less. we received one curious letter. what letter? if you allow me, i will report to you on saturday. okay, but just keep in mind that every day costs. us millions, there are four of us prop men in the workshop and therefore vitali selovich always earn

you can, we are like in the theater, the performance is handed over and that's it. you can decorate some kind of exhibition stand, or some visual propaganda, now i'm busy with anprosvetovskie posters, look at them, you are a living arctic fox by education, and what more interesting work can't you find, more interesting to talk about, of course, yes, it's not for me anymore, you know, somehow everything is with me here. it's not the same, once yours helped me, great, they believed me, they arranged a job, i also thought then, forget everything, shake it all off and start living anew, oh, nonsense, all this, the better to me relates, the more painful it is for me, he some,

one day a person will decide on a desperate act. honor to him forever, here is also betrayal, it is like a feat, once for a lifetime, and you have not tried to describe your life, the book would have turned out instructive, why haven't you tried, i tried, i remember, in america i suggested to one publisher to write, a guide to concentration and immigration camps of the world, i suggested it to him jokingly, and you know how he seized on this idea. that you promised a large fee, paid an advance, after all, i went through eight camps, in eight, in eight, and how do you count, two german ones during the war, there i agreed to join glasov's army, one french one after the war, one american one, two for displaced persons, and one

immigration one, in canada and australia, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't work out to be less than eight. note, our camp, i don't count, firstly, i've loved the number eight since childhood, and secondly, i came there voluntarily, they told me straight out at the consulate, if you want to come back, you'll have to bear the punishment, that's what they called me in the camp, a volunteer, of course, well and what, did you write the book? i wrote it, but what didn't work out? no, i think, on the contrary, it worked out, only it didn't come to the fee, the publisher said that all the money went to the translation, how is that? that's how it is, i even started to sue him, but you know, how

to sue a citizen of the country, a person without citizenship, it's a futile undertaking, well... and what about the book? it came out in the best possible way, only the authors were assigned a translator, but otherwise it turned out to be a funny little book, the publisher set a condition for me that the book be written with humor, with the humor of a camp law, yeah, i also thought then that he was a little off, and then i figured, he's right, he's right, but that's the way it should be written, because america hasn't experienced anything like that.

you just have to make it live by instinct, bring it to the level of an animal, that 's what they did then, so to remain a human being in the camp, i tell you, it wasn't easy, well , you can, you told me yourself , you can, of course you can, well, you know, i have my own special opinion on this matter, it's just that some people are given the ability to endure, and some are not, that's it, no one knows , if he lived like you and me now, that he can, and what he can't, here you are, how long can you sit under water, if you have the strength to push you in there. the devil knows, well i don't know,

maybe two minutes, or maybe even less, i haven't tried, that's what, you have to try, well that's not quite it. even during the war, clerks were held in high esteem, there was even some competition between headquarters, whose clerks were the best

at writing pretzels, i knew several such monograms, rest assured, well, so, at first i was assigned to the chancery at the headquarters of the russian liberation army as a clerk, then they promoted me, transferred me to the propaganda group, i even took part in editing the prague manifesto of the committee for the liberation of the peoples of russia, completely rewrote two paragraphs, approved of glassov, you know what my program was, for a free russia without communists and capitalists, you don't see anything else, you just said that you were present. during vlasov's conversation with our generals, is that really true, not with the generals, with the general, there were three of them,

ponedelin, snegov and lukin. you should be stronger, no, no, thank you, i was present only at the conversation with snegov, it was in 1942 near nerenberg, there was one such camp for our prisoners of war, the highest command staff, among them there were several russian generals, so that he could persuade the generals to cooperate with them, but they took me to keep the protocol as pitel, we arrived with him in the evening, spent the night in the camp, in

the barracks for the guard, in the morning lasov came with a swollen face, smelling of fumes, he drank terribly, in my opinion, he was very nervous, since the evening, deliberately. delayed the meeting, therefore we stayed there overnight, although you know how unpleasant it was, the atmosphere, although we were free people, but still, well, the first one they brought was general snegov. well, lasov told him that he wanted to form this very ro, promised him immediate release, the rank of general and all that stuff. during the conversation he was sitting like this, then snegov gets up, he was much older than vlasov, skinny, gets up and says:

well, look up, general, i see you 're very drunk, so try to remember that, what i'll tell you now, and how i hit him and about judas and about madze and all that other stuff, i wanted to spit in his face, but the security prevented me, they took me away, then... then i drank like crazy all the way to berlin, well, you see, and you talk about sitting under water like a squirrel, i say, some people are given to stand up, and some are not, i couldn't. well , god bless him, everyone to their own, but i came to you on business, but i already guess that you didn't just come for nothing, i want to consult with

you, please read this message, tell me, does it look like a fake or not, read it carefully, your opinion is very important to me, if you say it's a fake, there will be no more questions, but if you think it looks like the truth, then i'll ask again.

well, ask, what questions do you have? pal savech, what do you think, could any russian have written something like this, either under pressure or for money?

well, how about you, anyway, i have a friend, an artist, a restorer, he restores icons, a real artist, not my equal, so one day he showed me a copy of an icon, 16th century, cool, i said then him, listen, why don't you take up icon painting, he just laughed, what are you saying, i'll never be able to do that, i even got angry, how am i saying this? you won't be able to, you're a talented artist, from such a great school, and why will you do a worse job than this illiterate icon painter, when he put the original next to him and said: ca n't you see the difference, this artist painted the icon with faith in god, and faith is difficult to fake, even impossible, that's how this writing is , it was suffered, who do you think he is? clear

business, vlasovits, and why do you think so? but look at what he writes: here is an indicative place. they forgot to instill in the young that their fathers crushed the fascist dog, declaring a patriotic war on him. and turning to their great ancestors, the holy prince alexander nevsky, and his equal in history , ours. now what is indicative here, this must be understood, at first, as it was, the germans did not trust vlasov for a long time, right up until the end of forty -four they did not let him near the command, no matter how he asked, they did not give him an army, so we all knew what vlasov was on he was trying to persuade the germans, he was telling them that stalin...

he listened to these sermons, well, and what else, i have the impression that his hands are still covered in blood, otherwise, with such love for his homeland, he would have returned long ago, look at what he writes about his village near zhitomir, it just brings tears to my eyes, yes.

apparently, he's screwed up in this life, the man, that's what he writes, look, the recruitment was almost six months ago, and he dropped the letter only last week, he was so afraid, what do you think, it's just to come to embassy, ​​or whoever you start a conversation with, they will start watching you right away, i know from my own experience, before they decide, consider a year... he was walking in circles, apparently the guy had a hard time living anyway, if they had caught him, he would have given it to them, but in general , if they had caught him, even the police would have shot. everything happened, you see, so this letter, i 'll tell you, an act,

wow, well done, good, good horse, well done, you see, michael, every feeling, right, as a feeling, another thing, a judgment about a feeling, it can be true or false, i remembered the professor's lecture mitchell, you were still a child then, mitchell said that if an oar immersed in water seems broken, then the sensation in this case is true, since the observer experiences exactly this sensation, but if he ... will assert that the oar is really broken, then his judgment will be false, human errors, dear michael, are not in false sensations, god bless them with sensations, in false judgments, so my sensation that the strawberries that were just served to us

smell of texas herbs, right, this is not a sensation, a judgment, the judgment is false, the strawberries that were sold to us cannot smell like texas herbs, they are not ripe there yet, they smell like africa, i have to fly a plane for them now. there is, but i need your help, let's say this is a solvable issue, the state department, you discussed your considerations with them, it is too early, they should be involved last of all,

there may be an information leak, our diplomats have started drinking too much, professional illnesses, liver disease, i recently read the doctors' conclusion,

we have never had such a person before, so i am confident of success. knock on wood. now, since we have such a person, we need to strike as soon as possible. we have always lost because we were deprived of judgment, only feelings. you have returned well. i like completeness in everything, the highest form of completeness is a circle. so what should i discuss with the pentagon? it is necessary that the fleet be redeployed.

but if you insist, thank you, when can this happen? in two or three weeks, the administration is financing the enterprise, but you know, well, i am ready to buy shares of the cia million by one and a half even by two, strawberries with pleasure, but i like the nagonian one much more, it is small and there are not so many specialists associated with it in any field, but i think several hundred, and those who have... access to classified information,

in general dozens, time, time, it is necessary to study a wide circle of people, this takes time, and it is necessary to neutralize the agent as soon as possible, but there is no other way out, well, why not, there is what azersky thinks, he also thinks that the letter is not a fake, but there are many such letters are planted in cars. they are put in pockets or simply sent to the embassy by mail, yeah, i agree quite a lot, but for some reason this letter inspires confidence in me, excuse me, konstantin ivanovich, the letter is written emotionally, it is impossible to make up the image of the recruited person from it, even the gender is unclear, the author is called nothing other than a creature, a bitch, whatever the vermin, and i now...

the embassy in louisbourg reported that there are no russians among the waiters at the hilton. after all, i well, yes, here igor minaev, a security officer

decided to risk believing this letter. so, let's do it this way. we are trying to find out the identity of the criminal here, if he or she, or they, are operating in moscow. you, vitaly, hand over the leadership of your department to paltrofitch. you urgently fly to louisburg, we need to find the author of the letter, find and present for recognition photographs of our employees who, due to their knowledge, may be of interest to the americans, find, well , it would be easy, i would fly myself, but as it is , you see, i have to send you, in fact, so far no one has contacted me? for help, only once the commandant's wife came, she thought she was being followed, but

we checked just in case, okay, and how did you miss paramon? regarding paromonov, everything became clear after he left for moscow, a summons to court arrived, and he had already disappeared without a trace, you were in court, yes, they kicked the local traffic police out, and they are silent, we don’t know anything, we don’t remember anyone, and paromonov didn’t say anything, not a word to anyone. yeah, what was he doing here, a mechanic in the garage, a wonderful mechanic, i must say, well, and the local cia employees, there is one here an interesting character, john gleb, a businessman, so to speak, i see him quite often zotov, who? zotov, andrei andreevich, an engineer shipbuilder. i warned him that gleb might be connected with the secret services, but he just laughed, your job, he says. to see a cia agent in everyone, zotov, no,

no, he is a nice guy, in any case i am convinced that he is honest, who monitors the timeliness of deliveries to nagonia, yes zotov monitors, here in louisbourg, our ships that go to nagonia stock up for the entire voyage, there is nothing there, the ports are almost completely dismantled by the colonizers. he has been here for a long time, for the third year, but for the last 7 months he has been living alone, his wife, olga winter, left for moscow, why, because she couldn’t stand the local climate, no, that’s not the point, something broke between them, it seems, and what about zotov , who has been communicating with gleb for a long time? em, for a long time, they met about three months after... zotov came here. dogleb never

misses a single one of our receptions. many of us know him. zotov speaks english. and spanish, portuguese, in general. he travels around the country, has collected an interesting library, he has a lot of books on art, on african painting. so here's what else igor, don't you know, none of our guys have met russian emigrants at the hilton, well, you know, exchange, souvenirs, vodka, records, there are only about six people working at the hilton, white people, the bartender, i know, white, french, his name is jacob, a spy,

a son of a bitch, serves everyone, a guy of incredible charm, then, they have another white metordhotel, lyndon. tell me, couldn't paromonov have been at our reception? no, vitaly selovich, he's not a diplomat. coincidence excluded? absolutely excluded. paramonov has never been involved in servicing receptions. i see. hello, channel one is broadcasting news, maxim sharafuddinov is in the studio and here's the main thing in brief. it disappeared from radar immediately after takeoff in the area of ​​the achkazhets volcanoes. they are looking for an mi-8 helicopter in kamchatka. there are more than twenty people on board, according to some sources , tourists.
