Soviet Godfather

The Godfather of Russia 9, Chapter 19 Politburo Resolutions-567 English Since Sergey Sha gave a report in the Secretariat, thanks to Gorbachev's help, Sergey became a youth almost overnight A role model among cadres, you must know that Xie Liaosha is only twenty-five years old now, and he is simply a monster among officials of his level.

Sergei had expected Gorbachev to show something to him before returning home, but Sergei did not expect to establish himself as a role model for young people. A large part of this is due to the Foreign Minister Gromyko who has been against Gorbachev during this period. Gorbachev is now the youngest member of the Politburo and the only Politburo member under 65. But in the promotion sequence in the Soviet Union, age has become Gorbachev's disadvantage. The Soviet Union was not a feudal country. Stalin was the last national leader who could decide his successor. Starting from Brezhnev, almost all decisions of the country are the result of collective voting by the Politburo, and even the highest leader has no right to call the shots without authorization.

Andropov originally hoped that Gorbachev could take over the position of general secretary, but Chernenko, Tikhonov and other members of the general group and Gromyko’s people carried Andropov on their backs. The husband reached a secret agreement and Chernenko became the general secretary. This incident was revealed to Gorbachev by Andropov's widow. Perhaps for the purpose of appeasement, Chernenko made Gorbachev his deputy. However, it is already a customary rule that the candidate for general secretary who is out of the competition retire at the next party congress, and Gorbachev's political future has almost been sentenced to death. As long as there is no accident, Gromyko will take over as the general secretary after Chernenko.

This time, the British invitation to visit gave Gorbachev a chance to stand up. After all, the leadership of the Soviet Union was recognized by the international community as a very important political bargaining chip, and Gromyko was also the Minister of Foreign Affairs. If Gorbachev is overwhelmed, then the party cadres naturally think that Gorbachev is more capable than Gromyko.

Now Sergey Sha has been completely branded by the Gorbachev faction, and he has become the best cadre among the Ge family (Yakovlev committed ****** plus Sergey Sha He is too young and has such outstanding ability. It is simply the best counter-evidence to reverse the opinion of those party comrades that young cadres are unbearable. Only by supporting Sergei to a higher position, Gorbachev The issue of age will not be mentioned. Therefore, in addition to the conflict in the kitchen, the promotion of Sergei has once again become the focus of the battle between Gromyko and Gorbachev.

After Gorbachev instructed the state media to start publicizing Selesha’s advanced deeds, at a regular meeting of the Politburo’s personnel arrangements, Gorbachev proposed to let Selesha take over several members of the Central Committee who died. The vacancies below are entered into the Central Committee as an alternate member of the Central Committee. For a moment, a thousand waves arose, and General Secretary Chernenko didn't say anything, but Gromyko and Grishin strongly opposed it.

"I object, such a leapfrog promotion is simply a contempt of our cadre selection system and a serious violation of the principles of cadre organization and appointment. It is seriously unfair to those cadres who step up step by step!" Gromyko He slapped the table and said loudly.

"Is that fair to a capable cadre like Sergey Sha? The ruins south of Moscow have been deserted for many years, if it weren't for Sergey Sha, it is still the same now! Sergey has been the secretary of the Youth League for two years. We solved the old problems in Moscow that hadn't been solved for more than ten years!" Gorbachev said unceremoniously. Regardless of the feelings of Moscow City Party Secretary Grishin, Grishin's hands trembled a little, but he couldn't refute Gorbachev's words.

"I don't know much about Comrade Sergei Sha, but I also know some things about this comrade. He is indeed very capable, but is it too trifling to be a member of the Central Committee at the age of twenty-five?" The husband said.

"Is it because of these unreasonable reasons that such a capable comrade was put aside and wasted his talents?" Gorbachev retorted.

Chernenko didn't speak, he glared at Tikhonov. Chernenko thought that now it is Gorbachev and Gromyko to make a life and death, what are you Tikhonov interrupting? Do you also want to be a candidate for the general secretary?

In fact, from the heart of Gorbachev, he also knew that it would be unrealistic to get a member of the Central Committee for Selesha. Gorbachev actually hoped that Selesha would enter the Ministry of Foreign Trade to take charge of economic cooperation with the UK, because Yakovlev told him that Selesha had a strong network in the UK. As for the errand of the Ministry of Agriculture, Gorbachev no longer intends to let Selesha go on, because Gorbachev knew that it was not an easy job to get results.

"Comrade Grishin, Comrade Seryosha has worked in your Youth League Committee for so many years, and he is somewhat familiar. What is your evaluation of this comrade?" Chernenko did not want the regular Politburo meeting to be like this. The contradiction between Gorbachev and Gromyko continued to entangle endlessly, but it seemed that if he didn't say anything about today's meeting, don't even think about it.

"This comrade has the ability, especially in economics and trade, but always intervenes in the work of other departments. In addition, I heard his subordinates seem to reflect that this comrade is somewhat arbitrary in his work. I think he is still too young. , It is better to stay in Moscow for a few more years!" Grishin said with another purpose.

Chernenko knew that Grishin would not praise Seryosha, what he wanted was this effect. He wanted to use Grishin's mouth to tell Gorbachev ~www.wuxiaspot.com~Sergeysha's Central Committee member or not to think about it. Now Chernenko has jumped out of the factional disputes in the Politburo and is thinking about issues from a higher position. He knew what the most important issue he should pay attention to was to improve the Soviet economy. During his tenure, Andropov carried out a series of reforms, which indeed improved the shortage of food and daily necessities to a certain extent. Chernenko felt that Andropov’s thinking was correct. Chernenko was aware of Sergei's series of actions in the UK, and he recognized the cadre's ability in foreign trade. But the Central Committee members are impossible.

"I want to say that in fact, our Ministry of National Defense has always hoped that Comrade Sergey Shah can return to the army. He is our hero of the Soviet Union and has rich management experience. Our logistics support department is lacking such a capable person. Where's the cadre?" Defense Minister Ustinov said, this is his truth. The army is the maiden family of Sergei Sha. The farther the typical figures established by the army go in officialdom, the more advantageous it is for the Ministry of National Defense.

"Comrade Gorbachev, what do you think about the transfer of Sergei to the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation as assistant minister? Tikhonov, it's handed over to you, can you arrange it?" Chernenko said in an unquestionable tone. Asked.

"No problem, General Secretary!" Tikhonov replied.

"I also agree, General Secretary!" Gorbachev was right in his arms.

"Well, let's show our hands to vote!" Chernenko raised his hand after speaking. Assistant ministers are at the deputy ministerial level. The appointment of officials at this level requires democratic voting by members of the Politburo.

Soon, everyone in the room raised their hands. Chernenko nodded, and then said, "That's it! Comrade Ulyanov is removed from the post of Director of the Food Production Bureau of the Ministry of Agriculture and transferred to the Assistant Minister of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation!"
