Sensational Biography of Russian President Putin
Direct translation from Russian: Dr. Najam Al-Sahar Butt
A quote: Grandson of Stalin’s cook and KGB spy
I know my father’s family better than my mother’s. My grandfather was born in Petersburg. He was a professional cook. Yes! A great cook, he was very good at his job and because of this reputation that after the First World War he was put in the service of Lenin and his family in Gorky, a suburb of Moscow. After Lenin’s death, Dada was assigned to one of Stalin’s dachas (farmhouses) and worked there for a long time. Few of Stalin’s entourage survived and my grandfather was one of them. He lived long after Stalin’s death and after his retirement served as a cook at the rest house of the Communist Party of Moscow in Il’inskoe for a long time.
I am well aware that my father was born in 1911 in St. Petersburg. When World War I broke out, living in Petersburg became difficult. A situation of famine arose in the city. Our entire family migrated to my grandmother’s native village Po Meno.
I am living a very simple life and my days and nights are like an open book. University after school. Post-University KGB. University again after the KGB. Sobchak after university. Sobchak to Moscow. Government job. Later the Office of the President. From there the FSB (Russian Security Agency). After that, the Prime Ministership. And now the chair of the presidency.
For about five years, he was stationed abroad only in the East German city of Dresden.
I went to Dresden for the first time in 1985 and left after the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1990. I had ten years of experience working in the KGB. The intelligence department in the KGB has always been subject to criticism. The residence of the officials in foreign countries for years used to develop the critical thinking in their personality. After staying in a capitalist country for three years or in a country belonging to the socialist camp for four or five years, return to Moscow for nine months of training and then return to the homeland again. There is no time to enter social life. I also know people who were stationed in Germany for twenty to twenty-five years. Reconciliation with real life would have been difficult upon return from abroad. Irregularities in our country are clearly visible. We youths used to make connections with our senior colleagues. Here I am not referring to the senior comrades of the Stalin era. I am talking about colleagues with more experience than me. He was a completely different breed. The way of thinking and temperament of this generation was completely different. A friend of mine served for some time in Afghanistan as the in-charge of a group under the Ministry of Defence. When he came back, we often discussed various topics with him. You are well aware of the point of view popular with us in those days. Slogan on everything related to Afghanistan! All patriotism is patriotism. One day during the conversation I said. Are you satisfied with your performance in Afghanistan? Bombing and firing of rockets were prohibited without his signature.
I was able to hear his answer. He looked at me carefully and said, “I judge my efficiency by looking at the document that is not signed by me.” His response to me was nothing less than a frown. After this kind of conversation, your way of thinking and understanding changes completely. These things were said by honest and respectable people. His point of view was different from traditional homogeneity and contrary to popular common sense. It is right for us professionals to say that we were engaged in “spying at home”. The term was reserved for monitoring espionage from the Soviet Union, while we were based in East Germany. Our main focus of interest was our greatest adversary, the NATO alliance.
