Kuznetsov first secretary of the Leningrad regional committee. Kuznetsov Alexey Alexandrovich. Mikoyan hid at his dacha

R Born in 1915 in the village of Nokshino, now Velikoustyug district, Vologda region. Russian. Member of the Komsomol. Hero of the Soviet Union (December 2, 1942). Awarded the Order of Lenin.

In the summer of 1942, a difficult situation developed on the fronts of the Great Patriotic War. Hitler's command continued to intensify the pressure on the southern wing of the Soviet-German front, hoping to reach the Caucasus, Don and Volga regions. Fascist troops broke through the big bend of the Don. Defensive battles began on the distant approaches to Stalingrad. On one of the sectors of the front in the area of the Dubovoy farm, Ilovlensky district, Volgograd region, the 40th Guards Rifle Division of the 1st Guards Army, which included a battalion of the 119th Guards Rifle Regiment under the command of Guard Captain A. Kuznetsov, stubbornly defended itself. This division, in cooperation with other units and formations, not only prevented the enemy from reaching the left bank of the Don, but also retained a bridgehead on the right bank of the river.

After continuous attacks, the Nazis managed to capture a height from which the entire surrounding area was clearly visible. Captain Kuznetsov's guard battalion was given the task of knocking out the Nazis from the heights. Having received the order from the regiment commander, Kuznetsov decided to act suddenly and launch a night attack. The battalion consisted mainly of paratroopers, whom the battalion commander knew well.

With the onset of darkness, the paratroopers secretly approached the height and occupied the starting line. The Nazis did not expect their swift attack. The battle to capture the heights lasted no more than an hour. The plan of the guard captain Alexander Kuznetsov was a success. All night the guardsmen fortified the heights - everyone knew that the Nazis would not leave them alone.

On the morning of August 21, 1942, the enemy, trying to regain the heights, threw 16 tanks into battle. The paratroopers bravely accepted the unequal duel. They knocked out fascist vehicles with anti-tank rifle fire and grenades.

Several tanks were already burning in front of the height. The Nazis turned back. But after a short artillery attack, the enemy tanks went on the attack again. The infantry ran after them. And this attack was repulsed by the guards. During the day, suffering heavy losses, the paratroopers repelled several enemy attacks. There were 11 damaged enemy vehicles left on the battlefield, and many corpses of fascist soldiers and officers.

The Nazis continued to attack the guards who remained on top. Six tanks and enemy infantry again headed towards the paratroopers' trenches. Guard captain Alexander Kuznetsov himself took an anti-tank rifle and personally knocked out three enemy vehicles. He had already been wounded several times, but did not leave the battlefield. The guardsmen saw their commander in the most dangerous areas; by his example, he inspired confidence, supported both strength and faith in victory. When repelling the last attack of the Nazis, the battalion commander fell, struck by machine-gun fire. But the guards paratroopers carried out the order and held the height until reinforcements arrived. At dawn, the paratroopers buried their combat commander.

The height near the Dubovoy farm, which the brave battalion commander defended from the enemy with his guards, is called by his name: “Kuznetsov’s Height.”

Now the remains of the Hero rest in a mass grave in the city of Kalach, Volgograd region.

In the Hero’s homeland in the city of Veliky Ustyug, at school No. 11 in Volgograd, the pioneer squad bears the name of Hero of the Soviet Union Alexander Kuznetsov.

Daughters:Galina Alekseevna (†1957), Alla Alekseevna (1949), husband – Mikoyan Sergey (Sergo) Anastasovich. Doctor of Historical Sciences For the last 3-4 years, and now it is believed that more, Beria no longer commanded the organs. The MGB was ruled by Merkulov and Abakumov, who were directly subordinate to Stalin. The security department in general was a special service (like Yeltsin’s) and was limited to Vlasik, Stalin’s personal security guard. Abakumov's departure and Vlasik's removal are not the work of Beria, as Volkogonov believes, but the fruit of Stalin's growing suspicion. Poskrebyshev is also a victim of this suspicion. Back in 1947-48. Stalin gave control over the organs to the hands of the new Secretary of the Central Committee A.A. Kuznetsov, the hero of the Leningrad epic (at the beginning of 1949 I married his daughter Alla). But then Malenkov and Beria were able to convince Stalin that Kuznetsov needed to be removed and then destroyed. When the secretary of the Yaroslavl regional committee, Ignatiev, was appointed to the MGB, the authorities, at the prompting of Stalin personally, began the so-called “Mingrelian affair,” during which Beria’s leading henchmen were removed and arrested. Stalin said: “Look for the big Mingrel!” It is likely that in the investigative apparatus of the MGB there were still people associated with him like Wlodzimirsky (by the way, he interrogated me in 1943). But they “worked” only in Lubyanka; they had no opportunity to get to Stalin’s “near dacha.” Of course, Beria had every reason to fear for himself and want Stalin to leave. But he also had no way to speed up this departure. Stalin's new head of security, like ordinary guards, would have gnawed his own mother's throat to ensure the safety of the "master". These fanatics who idolized him also lent their voices in the 80s, praising him with all their might. Apartment building of the First Russian Insurance Company

Anniversary of one provocation

On July 11, 1951, the Politburo of the Central Committee of the All-Union Communist Party of Bolsheviks adopted a resolution “On the unhealthy situation in the Ministry of State Security of the USSR.” In accordance with the assessments given in this decision, a day later, the then Minister of State Security of the USSR, Colonel General Viktor Semenovich Abakumov, who was declared “the head of the Zionist conspiracy in the MGB,” was arrested, and another purge of state security agencies began. The last major political provocation of the Stalin era rushed towards its culmination at full speed.

The regime of one-man power, which was a consequence of the bureaucratic degeneration of the ruling elite, which was finally established after the victory Stalinover the Bolshevik party during the physical destruction of the Bolshevik-Leninists in the late 30s and the liquidation of Lenin’s internal party regime, could not exist without this kind of political provocations, each time ending in bloody “purges”, however, this last one is still curious in relation to little known and a number of analogies close to modern times.

Born in 1908, Viktor Abakumov, having become a security officer, initially enjoyed the support of the then head of the NKVD of the USSR Lavrentiy Beria, who appointed him first (1939) head of the NKVD Directorate for the Rostov Region, and then (1941) head of the Special State Security Departments operating in the Red Army and in the navy.

Young and not burdened with special knowledge (he did not even graduate from high school) and connections in the authorities, but a strong-willed and operationally gifted security officer, Abakumov was needed Stalin, when in 1943 he began a “game to weaken” the NKVD organs and their chief Beria under the pretext of dividing the NKVD into three components - the People's Commissariat of Internal Affairs, the People's Commissariat of State Security (NKGB USSR) and the military counterintelligence "Smersh" transferred to the authority of the People's Commissar of Defense, which headed by 35-year-old Abakumov with the rank of Deputy People's Commissar of Defense

In the spring of 1946, Stalin took new steps to strengthen the regime of his personal power and weaken the positions of the “old members of the Politburo”: Beria was removed from the direct leadership of the punitive bodies, his right hand - Army General Vsevolod Merkulov - lost the post of Minister of State Security, was removed from the secretariat of the Central Committee of the All-Union Communist Party ( b), and his post, including the powers of control over personnel, state security and justice, passes to Alexey Kuznetsov, who made a quick career in Leningrad during the period of repressions of 1936-39. and (together with) had a hand in the reprisal of the Leningrad party organization.

They are trying to promote their friend from Leningrad to the post of head of the MGB, just as they are guilty (as head of the NKVD/NKGB Directorate) of gross violations of socialist legality.

In 1949, the department of special and encryption communications and special equipment was removed from the GB system and transferred to the jurisdiction of the Central Committee of the All-Union Communist Party of Bolsheviks (not a government body at all -!) (almost the same thing was done by establishing an independent Federal Agency for Government Communications and Information), and The same fate befalls the government security department (a complete analogy with the creation of the current FSO - the federal security service). In addition to their main functions, all these structures began a “war of compromising evidence” against each other, overwhelming the Central Committee of the All-Union Communist Party of Bolsheviks with a multitude of denunciations

However, unlike the doctors arrested at the same time, none of the GB employees, despite torture and bullying, gave confessions. Just like, despite the punishment cell, beatings and sleep deprivation.

Failures of the investigation, about which Stalinwas forced to report in January 1952, they pushed the aging dictator towards another “reform”. The investigative part of the USSR MGB was actually separated from the direct jurisdiction of the minister and subordinated to the Chairman of the Council of Ministers of the USSR (it is worth recalling that now and Co. are planning to separate the investigative units of the FSB, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, etc. from the relevant departments into the so-called “Federal Investigative Committee” or "Federal Investigation Service").

Now the work of the investigators was led by such a “tough professional” as Stalin himself. In practice, this meant complete paralysis of investigative work: for example, Stalinis visited by the extremely valuable idea that all the fellow students of the arrested doctor Mirona in the pre-revolutionary Vitebsk gymnasium - allegedly his accomplices.

The MGB apparatus searches for them throughout the country, arrests them, takes them to Moscow, tortures them, does not learn anything meaningful and is afraid to report the fiasco to the top until Stalin, who has already fallen into sclerosis, has forgotten about this idea of his. So weeks and months pass, the investigation dragged on, which ultimately saved the lives of the majority of those groundlessly arrested.

Since the investigation is stuck, they find someone extreme. On November 14, 1952, he was removed from all posts and transferred to work in the USSR Ministry of State Control under the leadership of the minister.

DECISION OF THE PRESIDIUM OF THE CPSU Central Committee ON THE “LENINGRAD AFFAIR”

On April 30, 1954, the Military Collegium of the Supreme Court of the USSR rehabilitated N.A. , A.A. , Ya.F. , P.G. , THEM. , T.V. , F.E.

A resolution was adopted by vote providing for the secret storage of the decision in a “special folder.” However, at a meeting on May 20 of the same year (protocol No. 65, paragraph XXVIII), on the initiative of N.S. It was decided to remove the stamp “special folder” from the resolution and familiarize the party-Soviet nomenklatura with it, sending the resolution to the regional committees, regional committees, the Central Committee of the Communist Parties of the Union Republics and to the departments of the CPSU Central Committee for familiarization (RGANI. F. 3. Op. 8. D. 110. L. 182). See also the information “On the so-called “Leningrad Affair” and other documents” (Izvestia of the Central Committee of the CPSU. 1989. No. 2. P. 124–137)

No. 63. p. 53 – About the case of Kuznetsov, Popkov, Voznesensky and others

An investigation currently carried out by the USSR Prosecutor's Office on behalf of the CPSU Central Committee has established that the case on charges of treason, counter-revolutionary sabotage and participation in an anti-Soviet group was falsified for enemy adventurist purposes by the former Minister of State Security of the USSR, now arrested, and his accomplices.

Using facts of violations of state discipline and individual offenses on the part of, and others, for which they were removed from their posts with the imposition of party penalties, and his accomplices artificially presented these actions as the actions of an organized anti-Soviet traitorous group and, through beatings and threats, obtained fictitious testimony from those arrested about what had been created allegedly conspiring against them.

Based on these fabricated false materials, the Military Collegium of the Supreme Court of the USSR in 1950 sentenced N. to death, to 15 years in prison, and to 10 years in prison.

In connection with this case, a Special Meeting at the former Ministry of State Security of the USSR and the Military Collegium of the Supreme Court of the USSR convicted over 200 people, some as accomplices, and the majority as close and distant relatives of the convicted.

The CPSU Central Committee decides:

1. To instruct the Prosecutor General of the USSR, Comrade Rudenko, in connection with newly discovered circumstances, to protest the verdict of the Military Collegium of the Supreme Court of the USSR in the case,) to implicate others, and are currently rehabilitated, with financial assistance in the amount of 10 thousand rubles and 5 thousand each rubles for each family member (mother, father, wife, children).

Oblige the Leningrad and Moscow regional committees of the CPSU to provide work to these workers and members of their families.

Oblige the USSR Ministry of Finance to return to these employees and members of their families the property confiscated from them or to reimburse the cost of this property.

6. Oblige the Leningrad and Moscow City Executive Committees of Working People's Deputies to provide adequate living space to persons convicted in connection with the case, etc., and now rehabilitated.

The subsequent report and further resolutions of the Central Committee were carried out in the same pogrom - indeed, hooligan - style - “On the opera “The Great Friendship”, in which a group of the best composers led by Shostakovich was smashed, and “On the repertoire of drama theaters and measures to improve it” At the height of this ideological terror, his brother, the Minister of Education of the RSFSR Alexander, spoke about it at the Twentieth Congress, but did not explain anything.

In 1932, S. M. Kirov recommended him for party work. He was an instructor at the Leningrad City Committee; Deputy Secretary, Second Secretary of the Smolninsky District Committee of Leningrad; First Secretary of the Dzerzhinsky District Party Committee of Leningrad; Head of the organizational and party department of the Leningrad Regional Committee of the All-Union Communist Party of Bolsheviks. Nominated by A. A. Zhdanova. From September 1937 to January 1945, second secretary of the Leningrad regional committee and city committee of the CPSU (b). At the beginning of the Great Patriotic War, the first secretary of the regional and city committees, A. A. Zhdanov, was on vacation in Sochi, and A. A. Kuznetsov, who remained “on the farm” in Leningrad, received a call from I. V. Stalin. In June 1941, divisional commissar. One of the leaders of the defense of Leningrad. Member of the Military Council of the Baltic Fleet (1939 - 1946), Northern (June - August 1941), Leningrad (September 1941 - December 1942, March 1943 - May 1945) fronts, 2nd Shock Army of the Volkhov Front (December 1942 - March 1943). Lieutenant General (1943). He headed the commission to manage the construction of defensive structures, formed militia units, and resolved issues related to the life of the besieged city. Since January 1945, first secretary of the Leningrad regional committee and city committee of the CPSU (b). From March 1946 to February 1949, Secretary of the Central Committee of the All-Union Communist Party of Bolsheviks and Head of the Personnel Department of the Party Central Committee.

Participated in the preparation of the resolution of the Central Committee of the All-Union Communist Party of Bolsheviks on the reorganization of the system for raising the political and theoretical level of leading party and Soviet workers. On November 1, 1946, he opened a meeting of students, professors and teachers of the newly created Academy of Social Sciences and the Higher Party School under the Central Committee of the All-Union Communist Party of Bolsheviks in the Hall of Columns. He was a member of the commission of the Organizing Bureau of the Central Committee of the All-Union Communist Party of Bolsheviks (Bolsheviks) to develop a draft resolution of the Central Committee of the All-Union Communist Party of Bolsheviks (Bolsheviks) “On the magazines ‘Zvezda’ and ‘Leningrad’.” Supervised the MGB instead of the suspended Secretary of the Central Committee G. M. Malenkov. This circumstance led historians of the new wave to assume his involvement in the activities of the then administrative bodies in collecting compromising material on the senior command staff of the Soviet Army, the persecution of the Jewish Anti-Fascist Committee, and the murder of actor S. Mikhoelsa. He had conflicts with G. M. Malenkov. He revealed a number of shortcomings made by G. M. Malenkov in the leadership of the Personnel Department, criticized him at meetings of the apparatus of the Central Committee of the All-Union Communist Party of Bolsheviks. Together with the Deputy Chairman of the Party Control Commission under the Central Committee of the All-Union Communist Party of Bolsheviks M. F. Shkiryatov and the Minister of State Security of the USSR V. S. Abakumov, he headed the work of collecting incriminating evidence on Marshal of the Soviet Union G. K. Zhukov, identifying pests in military aviation and military industry. According to legend, J.V. Stalin, in the presence of G.M. Malenkov, L.P. Beria and V.M. Molotov, in one of the conversations named A.A. Kuznetsov, a member of the Organizing Bureau of the Central Committee, as his successor as General Secretary, and as Chairman of the Council of Ministers - member of the Politburo N.A. Voznesensky. This alarmed other applicants. In January 1949, G. M. Malenkov reported to I. V. Stalin that people from Leningrad were acting without permission, without the knowledge and bypassing the Central Committee and the government, they held a wholesale fair in the city on the Neva. In Gorbachev’s times, the CPC and the IML under the Central Committee of the CPSU documented that the fair was held in pursuance of a resolution of the Council of Ministers of the USSR. According to A. I. Mikoyan, the charges they confessed to were collected in a bound volume, which was sent to members of the Politburo: “The main essence was simple: he and his accomplices were allegedly dissatisfied with the dominance of Caucasians in the country’s leadership and were waiting for a natural departure from life Stalin in order to change this situation, but in the meantime they wanted to transfer the government of the RSFSR to Leningrad in order to tear it away from the Moscow leadership. There were also accusations of holding some kind of fair in Leningrad without the appropriate registration through the Central Committee, Kuznetsov’s attempt to exalt himself through the Museum of the Defense of Leningrad, and other nonsense” (Mikoyan A.I. Tak was. M., 1999. P. 567). First Secretary of the Primorsky Regional Committee of the CPSU T. F. Shtykov, who worked in 1938 * 1945. second secretary of the Leningrad regional committee of the CPSU (b), said at the June (1957) Plenum of the CPSU Central Committee: “I once went to see Kuznetsov, he literally burst into tears. He said that Popkov arrived with the text of the report prepared for the regional party conference in order to consult with the Secretariat of the Central Committee on the substance of the report. The Leningrad organization is well known within the party. This text of Popkov’s report was discussed at the Secretariat of the Central Committee, and a number of comments were made on the report. Popkov leaves this meeting and asks Kuznetsov to help him edit this report. Kuznetsov did it honestly, and then, out of his simplicity, he came to Malenkov and said: he spent two hours editing the report, he, Popkov, cannot even formulate the report properly. This is what Malenkov needed. He immediately reported to Comrade. To Stalin: you see what Kuznetsov is like, we made comments at the Secretariat of the Central Committee, and Kuznetsov made these comments on the side and made his own. Kuznetsov as a reproach: on what basis did he do this” (Molotov, Malenkov, Kaganovich. 1957. Transcript of the June Plenum of the CPSU Central Committee and other documents. M., 1998. P. 393). On October 14, 1948, at a meeting of the Bureau of the Council of Ministers of the USSR, chaired by G. M. Malenkov, a report from the Ministry of Trade of the USSR and the Central Union on the remains of stale goods and measures for their sale was considered. Due to the fact that the country has accumulated up to 5 billion rubles in goods that could not be sold under normal trade conditions, the Bureau instructed senior officials of the Council of Ministers and the USSR Ministry of Trade to develop measures to resolve this problem. On November 11, 1948, the Bureau of the Council of Ministers of the USSR, also chaired by G. M. Malenkov, adopted a resolution “On measures to improve trade.” The resolution says: “To organize interregional wholesale fairs in November - December 1948, at which to sell off excess goods, to allow the free export from one region to another of industrial goods purchased at the fair.” In pursuance of this resolution, the Ministry of Trade of the USSR and the Ministry of Trade of the RSFSR decided to hold the All-Russian Wholesale Fair in Leningrad from January 10 to 20, 1949 and obliged the Leningrad City Executive Committee to provide practical assistance in its organization and conduct. While inflating the case about the illegality of holding the All-Russian Wholesale Fair in Leningrad, G. M. Malenkov also used other pretexts to discredit Leningrad leaders. A few days after the end of the X regional and VIII city joint conferences (December 22 - 25, 1948), the Central Committee of the All-Union Communist Party of Bolsheviks received an anonymous letter in which it was reported that although in separate ballots the names of the secretaries of the Leningrad Regional Committee and the City Party Committee P.S. Popkova, Ya.F. Kapustina and G.F. Badaeva were crossed out, the chairman of the counting commission A.Ya. Tikhonov announced at the conference that these persons passed unanimously. Indeed, P. S. Popkov received “against” 4 votes, G. F. Badaev 2 votes, Ya. F. Kapustin 15, P. G.

Member of the Central Committee since 1939, in 1945-1946 first secretary of the Leningrad regional committee and city party committee. He was involved in the USSR atomic project: through the efforts of the director of the Radium Institute V.G. Khlopin and A.A. Kuznetsov, he received additional premises. The decision to allocate areas was made by the Special Committee in November 1945, carried out by the Chairman of the Operations Bureau of the Council of People's Commissars of the RSFSR A. N. Kosygin and the representative of the State Planning Committee in the Special Committee N. A. Borisov.

On September 30, 1950, he was sentenced to death by the Military Collegium of the Supreme Court of the USSR, and executed on October 1 of the same year. Rehabilitated by the military collegium of the Supreme Court of the USSR on April 30, 1954, on February 26, 1988, the CPC under the CPSU Central Committee confirmed membership in the party since 1925.

And before the war, and during the war, and after it, the political biography of A.A. Kuznetsova was closely intertwined with the activities of punitive authorities and punitive functions. And it is not at all by chance that in 1946 Stalin entrusted him with “monitoring” of the MGB, the Ministry of Internal Affairs...

After the war, this dangerous path led to a tragic outcome (“Leningrad affair”. L., 1990. pp. 97-98).

During the Great Patriotic War A.A. Kuznetsov is one of the leaders of the defense of Leningrad. In June 1941, divisional commissar; member of the Military Council of the Baltic Fleet (1939-1946), North-Western (June-August 1941) and Leningrad (September 1941 - December 1942, March 1943 - May 1945) fronts.

A.A. Kuznetsov actually directed the entire life of besieged Leningrad: he headed (in the summer and autumn of 1941) the Commission for the management of the construction of defensive structures, supervised the organization of the life of Leningraders, the formation of militia detachments and the selection of military personnel, the creation of partisan detachments; resolved issues related to the activities of the political department of the front and fleet. A.A. Kuznetsov, as a member of the Military Council of the Leningrad Front, participated in the development of operations to defeat the Nazi troops near Leningrad.

In 1945-1946. A.A. Kuznetsov is the first secretary of the Leningrad regional committee and city party committee. Then - an employee of the apparatus of the Central Committee of the All-Union Communist Party of Bolsheviks in Moscow. In 1949, he was arrested in connection with the Leningrad Case, convicted and executed. Rehabilitated in 1954 (posthumously).

IN AND. Berezhkov writes: “It seems that the high-ranking security officer P.A. Sudoplatov, who in those years moved in the highest spheres of the Kremlin and had objective information, is close to the truth about the reasons for the emergence of the “Leningrad Case”. In his book “Intelligence and the Kremlin” he writes: “All this was fabricated and caused by the ongoing struggle among Stalin’s assistants... The motives that forced Malenkov, Beria and Khrushchev to destroy the Leningrad group were clear: to strengthen their power. They were afraid that the young Leningrad team led by Kuznetsov would replace Stalin" (Berezhkov V.I. St. Petersburg prosecutors. St. Petersburg, 1998. pp. 239-241; "Leningrad case". Leningrad, 1990).

“The so-called “Leningrad Affair” was instigated and organized by Stalin, who sought to maintain an atmosphere of suspicion, envy and distrust of each other among senior leaders and on this basis to further strengthen his power” (Rehabilitation. Political processes of the 30-50s. M., 1991. P. 312).

After Stalin named Kuznetsov as his successor as General Secretary of the Central Committee in 1947 and entrusted him with supervision of the state security organs, Alexei Alexandrovich made two terrible enemies - Beria and Malenkov.

This year marks the 111th anniversary of his birth. He led the besieged Leningrad. But the finest hour in his dizzying career was the Politburo meeting in 1947. Then Stalin said: “Time passes, we are getting old. In my place I see Alexey Kuznetsov...”
