in and we did. it with. while sucker of was busy in his study and re-examine the whole flat he remembers to this day the living room with the radio sets where sucker of used to listen to western broadcasts and the kitchen with a remarkable table which the academic had managed to repair without nails but what he heard from sucker of amaze the boy much more. told us that one of the basic reasons for his exile was his opposition to the war in afghanistan we knew about this war and were aware that lots of all guys were being killed when we were leaving we all still for a civilian serve gave me and my friends a farewell postcard each. postcard i've kept for thirty years now written in briefly to andrey from and dream all those that k.g.b.

can take it away from us of. an old two story mansion in the center of gorky was the only place where and there a sucker of and on the could pay friendly calls the family of maria hein of skye yellin his relatives lived in the building the high notes the family had a similar story they were also in x. article t. by the soviet authorities forty years before those events. since the one nine hundred eighty s. k.g.b. officers of the around the yard peering through the window to monitor several visits there were times when the academics ceased to believe there would ever be an end to his constant harassment is not a good they even found a place in the oracle where they wanted to be buried there is neither of them hope to get out of this town of exile. the tension was extreme.

cheering his gorky exile sucker of went on hunger strike three times for the first joined by c.n.n. and on the. local doctors received an order to hospitalized. the incident was put on record by the k.g.b. . today said ward is still a local place of interest but the doctors don't like to comment on those events. therefore speed in involved quite rough methods as andris are if later recalled they fastened his arms and legs to the bad place to sleep on his nose and already knew trisha's mixture into his novels whenever he took a breath. in one thousand nine hundred eighty three sacro managed to leak to the west a new world three published then in response the soviet leadership started afresh bound to vote on persecution one of the central u.s.s.r.

newspapers published an article composed by four soviet academics who choose sachar off of instigating. against the soviet union mr sattar of if once you had the right to be called a compound when the working class can no longer call you so the soviet workmen deplore your miserable attempts to tarnish the soviet reality and can damn your outspoken treachery. these abusive letters are actually very diverse but they have a similar structure or did with divided into paragraphs the analysis of their contents reveals that it was a stage they picked people from various ends of the soviet union and told them write some proof or write this and don't mention this and that. meanwhile support for the exiled academic was growing in the west the square in

front of the savior embassy in washington saw so many demonstrations and was named secular of plaza haven't heard. from. new york or decided to follow. footsteps or russian and remained by the street next to russian. united nations mission where a mission is and middle part of a book was renamed soccer warner corner. is that all economist party has chosen mikhail gorbachev as his general secretary. in ninety ninety five gorbachev started his policy of perestroika to bring down the iron curtain soon after supper of received that famous call from gorbachev he told his seventy exile was over the silliest when he abnormality of the situation became clear everyone went on to

discuss it i said so what let's face the issue. i think we should get suckered back let him come back from exile and get to work because even at that time glasnost was already under way in a country. than a week off the gorbachev phone call sattar of return to moscow and was met by dozens of journalists sattar of had no idea what was in store for him he had stains from giving any political statements the first place he visited was around a matter the level of physical institute he went there to attend the scientific seminar but unlike seven years before he was not detained by the k.g.b. on his way led for groceries in the we go over to the seminar as usual on tuesday it was a seminar very much like the one that is being held here right now so none of the seminar started and then came sucker of intended to enter the whole noiselessly in

order not to interrupt the seminal not to draw everyone's attention to himself something incredible happens they spotted him and burst into applause was the word you're. soon center of was elected to the supreme council as a delegate from the academy of sciences it was in june one thousand nine hundred nine sacro found himself at the center of a scandal that flared up in the first days of the session he had condemned the situation concerning the soviet troops in afghanistan it read up on the war in afghanistan as a crime to be a great wrong in itself. and it's not clear i should be held responsible for this great crime country. his statements were judged offensive by the offices who had foreseen that war themselves one of such throws main opponents his name just surrogate children a peacekeeper

a former paratrooper who lost both his legs in the war. we're very shocked by the provocative behavior of the strain assigned. today so gay is in kiev and his head of the ukrainian war veterans group he still believes that sector of was to go of all interesting people who provided him with information including that on the situation in afghanistan. we're foolish generally speaking apart from being a great physicist who the sucker of was a very sincere and naive person he was easily deceived and believe everything he heard he was. counting his statements in a harsh manner i think he was simply just see for the people who surrounded because of political course of the young surrogates pressed a populist standpoint among soviets in relation to the conflict in afghanistan

those who supported secularist point of view were an absolute minority of the session but the debate so broadcast live across the country allowing the public to decide as a result sacrifice started to receive letters once again just like in the old days this time however the letters had a much different tone to those that previously filled his mailbox during his gawky exile. dear dr sorrow please accept my deepest apologies for the so called publish camilli issue i can't keep silent anymore after watching the session of the congress of people's deputies on t.v. did i realize how desperately we need to get. on december fourteenth one thousand nine hundred eighty nine during a session of the congress sachar of gave an interview to kazakhs television the questions concerned the future of the semi-colon since guest sides in kazakstan it

was a place when you clear weapons had been designated for decades sachar of demanded that the site be closed because the people who lived in this vicinity were paying too high a price for those nuclear tests. yeah well i hope that mankind will terminate the critical period of history when we compete as inventing weapons of mass destruction it is a kind of examination mankind assessor's a definite test of the ability to survive a thoughtless wish. it was his last interview a few hours later satirise heart failed his friends even told him the previous day would deeply shocked. there'd be no warning signs. thousands of people came to bid farewell to the academic sachar of. any final

year sachar of was drawn to a new constitution for the country. but died before it was finished and. many of those who had read sachar also early articles and his political supporters had lost their chance of meeting him in person. of the high standards of goods and devotion to the cause of the people such as sex still needs to be fully understood. and that there were i'm sure a role is played in the liberation of russia from the doctrines or will be just three years of that issue. of the figure of the.
