When Chulbanov and Hassan's men finally escaped from the silence of the sailors, an international flight specially prepared for Chulbanov was quietly waiting on the tarmac of Sheremetyevo International Airport. Hassan's men escaped the attention of the military police and the media. After they escaped from the silence of the sailors, they immediately met the people Hassan arranged to come to meet them. They took off their prison guard uniforms and put on ordinary clothing. Hassan then escorted Churbanov and his men who participated in the operation to Sheremetyevo International Airport. They will leave the Soviet Union on different flights, and Churbanov will be sent to Switzerland to enjoy the future. life, while Hassan's men would be sent to Italy to join Yakov.
At this moment, Seryozha was quietly waiting for Churbanov's arrival at the airport. He wanted to say goodbye to this old friend who had helped him time and time again. Although Churbanov has many shortcomings and is not a person who does great things, he has always been very sincere to his friends. He was the only subordinate who attended Shlokov's funeral, even in Andro At the most critical moment of Bov's anti-corruption campaign, Churbanov did not attack Shlokov.
When Churbanov finally arrived at the airport, Seryozha held hands with him tightly. Seryozha said to Churbanov: "You have suffered, Churbanov, now I will send you to Switzerland and live with a new identity. From then on, there will be no such person as Churbanov in the world." Man, you are free!"
"Seryozha, thank you!" The blows that Churbanov suffered these days have already caused him to lose everything. He lost the aura of Brezhnev's son-in-law and became bully by everyone. Sent to Moscow's most notorious prison on trumped-up charges. Churbanov had nothing to miss in the Soviet Union. It was already the best choice for Churbanov to leave here and start a new life in a foreign country.
Seryozha did not delay Churbanov's time too much, he watched Churbanov board the plane. Then I stood in the VIP room of the airport and watched the plane speed up, take off, and leave the land of the Soviet Union. Hassan stood beside Seryozha, waiting for Seryozha's order.
"Nice job, Hassan!" Seryozha said suddenly.
"Thank you boss!" Hassan replied happily.
...
Churbanov's special plane is a veritable special plane, and he is the only passenger on the whole plane besides the staff. When he landed on Swiss soil a few hours later, he already had a brand new identity—Luka. When Churbanov stepped out of the airport gate and drove to his new home in the car, he felt like a dream.
"Where are we going now?" Churbanov asked curiously.
"Now let's go to your new home on the shores of Lake Geneva, Mr. Luka!" said the person who came to meet Churbanov.
"Can you tell me what my new home is like?" Churbanov asked impatiently.
"Sir, your new home is on the shore of Lake Geneva, with a private dock and a two-acre forest. There is also a yacht on the dock that belongs to you. You can sail across the entire Lake Geneva and go directly to France. I believe you I'll like it here..." the receptionist patiently explained to Churbanov.
Half an hour later, Churbanov finally came to his future new home. Standing on his balcony, he could overlook the snow-capped mountains and the endless lake in the distance. The luxury here was absolutely unimaginable in the Soviet Union, Churbanov Nove was very satisfied. But the surprise is not only the scenery here, when Churbanov walked into his wine cellar, the treasures in the wine cellar made him unable to put it down. Churbanov now feels that any grievances he has suffered are worth it at this moment.
Churbanov's departure made Sergei finally relax. In the next few days, the media was reporting about the silent prison of the sailors because of Churbanov's sudden disappearance. , many people believe that he was killed by other prisoners in the prison, and the body may have been disposed of. Ligachev's judiciary has once again been criticized by opponents and the media for the prison riot. Gorbachev asked Ligachev to review the matter at a Politburo meeting. And through this incident, part of the power in Ligachev's hands was transferred to Yakovlev's hands.
However, Gorbachev still supported Ligachev's attitude in dealing with the issue of excessive power in localities and ministries. Sergey regretted that this matter still had to be asked by Ligachev. However, just when Seryosha thought that Ligachev would pursue the Mediterranean trading company in his own hands, another person stood up and began to clearly oppose Ligachev's meddling in local affairs. It never occurred to Seryozha that this man was Shevardnadze, Minister of Foreign Affairs.
At a meeting of the Politburo, Shevardnadze accused the people sent by Ligachev of interfering in the normal work of the local government and criticized the reform of the local government. Shevardnadze said by name at the meeting: "Although Secretary Ligachev's intentions are good, it is objectively hindering the reform process of the central government in the economic and political fields. If the central government manages too much How dare the local comrades dare to take the step and do something that we have never done before. The people in the working group point fingers at our cadres, and they will not let them do this, and they will not let them do that. Then our cadres How to start the work, does everything in the local area have to be discussed at the Politburo meeting?"
"Comrade Shevardnadze, I am safeguarding the authority of the central government and ensuring that comrades at the local level carry out work in accordance with the reform line formulated by our entire party. The central government has the right to require the localities to seriously follow the line of the central government..." Ligacho husband explained.
"Secretary Ligachev, I think you are really stubborn, and even a bit difficult! We want to reform is to break the rules of the past, but your people are always using the experience of the past and the socialist system to imprison the thinking of our cadres , This is not promoting reform, I think you are hindering reform..." Shevardnadze became more and more excited as he spoke, and even slapped the table in front of Gorbachev.
The other comrades in the Politburo were watching this farce, and they knew in their hearts that the conflict between Shevardnadze and Ligachev was not at all an issue of reform as they said. They actually intervened in the struggle between Shevardnadze's old subordinates and the new Georgian secretary Pattyashvili.
