The post of the head of the East Kazakhstan region was estimated at 30 billion rubles

Yesterday President Putin appointed Aleksandr Golovko, chief of the Plesetsk cosmodrome, as commander of the Aerospace Defense Forces (VKO). The struggle for this post unfolded serious. The day before, the Ministry of Defense reported that Sergei Shoigu was considering three possible candidates. And yesterday, one of these applicants was directly linked by the Ministry of Internal Affairs to a criminal offense. It turns out that the current first deputy commander of the East Kazakhstan region Valery Ivanov allegedly caused damage of 30 billion rubles. Experts note that influencing personnel decisions with the help of criminal cases is becoming a common practice in the Russian Federation.

“To appoint Major General Golovko Aleksandr Valentinovich as commander of the EKR troops, relieving him of the post of chief of the 1st State Test Cosmodrome,” says the decree of President Vladimir Putin.

An excerpt characterizing Golovko, Alexander Valentinovich

Once upon a time (now it seemed - a very long time!) At this same huge mirror every morning I combed the wonderful, silky hair of my little Anna, playfully giving her the first childhood lessons of the "witch" school ... Girolamo's eyes, burning with love, were reflected in this mirror. , tenderly embracing me by the shoulders ... This mirror reflected in itself thousands of carefully preserved, wonderful moments, which now shook my wounded, tortured soul to the very depths.
Here, on a small night table, there was a wonderful malachite box, in which rested my magnificent jewelry, so generously once presented to me by my kind husband, and causing wild envy of rich and capricious Venetians in those distant, past days ... Only today this box was empty ... Someone's dirty, greedy hands managed to “remove” all the “shiny trinkets” stored there, evaluating only the monetary value of each individual thing ... For me, it was my memory, these were the days of my pure happiness: the evening of my wedding ... the birth of Anna ... some of my long forgotten victories or events of our life together, each of which was marked by a new work of art, the right to which only I had the right to .. These were not just "stones" that were expensive, it was my Girolamo's concern, his desire to make me smile, and his admiration for my beauty, which he was so sincerely and deeply proud of, and so honestly and passionately loved ... now These pure memories were touched by someone's lustful, greedy fingers, on which, cringing, our outraged love was crying bitterly ...
In this strange "resurrected" room, my favorite books lay everywhere, and a good old grand piano waited sadly by the window alone ... On the silk bedspread of the wide bed, the first doll of Anna, who was now almost the same age as her unfortunate one, was smiling merrily, the persecuted mistress ... Only here the doll, unlike Anna, did not know sadness, and an evil person could not hurt her ...
I growled from unbearable pain, like a dying beast, ready for its last fatal leap ... Memories burned out the soul, remaining so wonderfully real and alive that it seemed that right now the door would open and smiling Girolamo would start right "from the doorway" with enthusiasm the latest news of the bygone day ... Or the cheerful Anna will rush in like a whirlwind, pouring on my knees an armful of roses soaked in the smell of a wonderful, warm Italian summer ...
It was OUR happy world, which could not, should not have been within the walls of the Karaffa castle! .. There could be no place for it in this den of lies, violence and death ...
But, no matter how much I was indignant in my soul, I had to somehow pull myself together in order to calm the jumping out heart, not succumbing to the longing for the past. For memories, even the most beautiful ones, could easily interrupt my already fragile enough life, not allowing to end Karaffa ... Therefore, trying to somehow "protect" myself from the expensive, but at the same time deeply wounding my soul memory , I turned away and went out into the corridor ... There was no one nearby. Apparently Karaffa was so confident in his victory that he did not even guard the door to my "chambers". Or, on the contrary, he understood too well that there was no point in guarding me, since I could “leave” him at any moment I wanted, in spite of any efforts and prohibitions made by him ... One way or another - no stranger there was no presence, no security outside the door of "my" chambers.
Melancholy choked me, and I wanted to run without looking back, if only to get away from that wonderful ghostly world where every memory that came up took a drop of my soul, leaving it empty, cold and lonely ...
Gradually recovering from such an unexpected "surprise", I finally realized that for the first time I was walking alone along the wonderfully painted corridor, almost not noticing the incredible luxury and wealth of the Karaff palace. Before that, having the opportunity to go down only to the basement, or to accompany Karaffa to some interesting meetings of his alone, now I looked in amazement at the amazing walls and ceilings, completely covered with paintings and gilding, which seemed to have no end. It was not the Vatican, nor the official Papal residence. It was just Karaffa's personal palace, but it was in no way inferior in beauty and luxury to the Vatican itself. Once, I remember, when Karaffa was not yet the "holiest" Pope and was only an ardent fighter against the "spreading heresy", his house looked more like a huge fortress of an ascetic, who truly gave his life for his "just cause", no matter how it was not absurd or terrible for the rest. Now he was the richest man, “eating” (with the pleasure of a gourmet!) His boundless strength and power, a man ... who too quickly changed the lifestyle of a true “monk” for the light gold of the Vatican. He still faithfully believed in the correctness of the Inquisition and human bonfires, only now they were mixed with a thirst for enjoying life and a wild desire for immortality ... which no gold in the world (to everyone's happiness!) Could buy him.
Karaffa suffered ... His temporarily lasting, bright "youth", given by the once strange "guest" of Meteora, suddenly began to leave very quickly, forcing his body to age much faster than it would have been if he had not tried the deceitful " gift"...
Still so recently fit, slender and youthful, the cardinal suddenly began to turn into a hunched over, drooping old man .... A whole "bunch" of his personal doctors panicked! .. They honestly racked their clever heads, trying to understand how "terrible" disease is devouring their beloved "holiness"? .. But there was no answer. And Karaffa was getting old just as "accelerated" before his eyes ... It infuriated him, forcing him to do the stupidest things, hoping to stop the fleeing time, which with each new day, transparent grains, mercilessly flowed through his aging, but still very beautiful, thin fingers. ..
This man had everything ... His power and authority extended to all Christian kingdoms. Lords and kings obeyed him. He was kissed by the princess's hand ... And with all that, his only earthly life was approaching sunset. And the thought that he was helpless to change anything drove him to despair!

In 1988 he was appointed commander of an operational and technical company. It was not the easiest choice and far from the easiest position. The service of this unit, its entire existence is very characteristic of Vorkuta. The command and personnel of the company were responsible for the operation, maintenance and repair of the high-pressure boiler house, electricity and water supply for the entire unit - for everything that is vital in the conditions of our polar city. In this position, Golovko survived both the "Ryzhkovskaya" blizzard, and the next blow of the elements that covered the city in 1991. I am sure that even now General Golovko will easily report on the construction of his boiler room, decipher "DKVR" - the fancy name of its boilers.

Anatoly Vasilyevich Yakubovsky, a comrade and then subordinate of Golovko, recalled several years later: “In those years, after graduating from the Mozhaisky military institute, I served as the head of the boiler house. Every morning, leaving Golovko on a shift bus from the city along the northern ring, the first glance is towards the unit, to the boiler room chimney. Smokes - everything is fine, the day will start well. There is no smoke - the company commander (A. V. Golovko) and I risk becoming the protagonists of the commander's morning meeting. "

The unit commander at that time was Colonel N.P. Kolesnikov. Fate will bring Alexander Valentinovich directly to his former boss once again in the early 2000s. Having become chief of staff of the Main Testing Center, A.V. Golovko will again serve under the command of General Kolesnikov. But Alexander Valentinovich will soon bypass his old commander on the career ladder.

Alexander Valentinovich served in the operational and technical company for three years. After that, he was successively appointed head of the department, department of the ITC and chief of staff of the unit. Here, in Vorkuta, Alexander Valentinovich was awarded a rare award - in 1993 he was awarded the military rank of major ahead of schedule. During the same time, he successfully studied and graduated from the Military Academy named after F.E.Dzerzhinsky in Moscow.

Golovko's rise as a military leader fell on a timeless period, in the 90s. The usual norms and traditions of the army and of the whole society were crumbling, the country “wandered” in search of its own way of development. Every day I had to solve a lot of questions and problems, the appearance of which a few years ago it was impossible to imagine. The retention of the cadre of the unit, the high-quality fulfillment of tasks as intended, the departure of officers on leave, the salaries of servicemen - all this required the application of significant efforts by the leadership of the military collective. The previously unheard-of - difficulties in clothing and food supply for soldiers and officers - a heavy burden fell on the shoulders of the commanders. The veterans of the unit recall that, for example, in 1998, the unit's allowance was paid three times (!) - in May, September and November. And in May it was not money for the previous five months, it was just repaying the debt for some of the months of 1997.

In 1998, the 12-year Vorkuta period of his biography ended. For so long, Alexander Valentinovich did not stay at any of the many places of his service. Lieutenant Colonel A.V. Golovko was appointed commander of the command and measurement point in Ulan-Ude in Transbaikalia. This is one of the oldest command and measurement points, the combat crews of which in 1957 put the first artificial Earth satellite into orbit, and in April 1961 received messages from the first cosmonaut of the planet.

In 2001 Colonel Golovko entered the main educational institution of the army - the Military Academy of the General Staff of the RF Armed Forces.

From 2004 to 2007, Alexander Valentinovich - Chief of Staff of the Main Testing Center for Testing and Control of Space Facilities named after G. S. Titov. For more than half a century, the Main Center has been the only military and scientific and technical formation in the country that performs the tasks of direct control of the country's orbital grouping.

Since 26.09.2017 Aerospace Forces ()

Colonel-General Surovikin, appointed to this position on November 22, 2017, is in no hurry to change into a blue uniform - judging by recent

His place at the collegiums and meetings in Moscow is occupied by general Dronov... Therefore, they personally stayed:

If the problems of reforming the Aerospace Forces demanded the appointment of a land general, then why marinate him?

If the military-political situation in the SAR requires a long-term presence of a specific Severe general, then why appoint him in absentia as chief “for air and space”?

In the meantime, I think the VKS headquarters is in anxious anticipation.

Anxiously awaiting the deputy commander-in-chief of the VKS:

Two "pilots" - and Yudin

Two "Air Defense Forces" - Humane and

Two "cosmonauts" - Golovko and Kazakevich

And it came from nowhere - .

The most unexplored situation by Yandex - in position deputy chief of armaments... I don’t even know if such a position was preserved? The Internet with grief in half found us two people:a person likecolonel A.N. Medvedkov, and a person likecolonel Miruk K.V. Both come from the Air Force weapons structures; but what if the new commander-in-chief wants to see an engineer of armored vehicles in this position? :)
