For Putin, who is famous for his iron fist and likes "close contact" with steel knives, it is nothing to dare to stand alone in the office building when he was young.

As we all know, Russian President Vladimir Putin is a KGB agent who worked in Dresden, Germany for five years. Little known, however, is that during the drastic changes in East Germany, Putin once defended the KGB office building in the local area with a short gun and faced the protesters who were preparing to storm alone. A few days ago, the Russian media reported on this.

Recently, Russian President Vladimir Putin visited Germany and met with German Chancellor Angela Merkel in Dresden. It is no accident that the meeting place was chosen in Dresden-from 1985 to 1990, Putin, who had worked in the KGB, worked here and experienced political upheaval in East Germany. For him, this visit can be described as revisiting the old place, and it also reminds him of that turbulent era.

According to the latest report of Russian TV, the social life in East Germany was turbulent at that time, and the wave of protests and demonstrations swept across the country. Dresden, where Putin worked, is no exception. The neo-Nazis even posted the slogan "Get out of the occupation army" on the street. Later, protesters in Dresden also attacked the location of the KGB branch. A local resident revealed that Putin bravely played the role of a lonely hero and stopped the protesters alone.

Gotz, a German who witnessed Putin's heroic behavior, said in an interview with Russian TV 1: A group of protesters surrounded the KGB branch building and prepared to break in. The situation is very critical because the armed guards have been evacuated. Just then, a young Soviet stood out with a pistol. He calmly told the protesters in pure German: "This is Soviet territory, and you are already standing on the border! I solemnly declare that I will shoot those who cross the border! "

According to the witness, in the face of this calm and confident staff, the protesters stopped, made a loud noise for a while, and then disbanded and left. "We later learned that this staff member became your president!"

According to TV producer Soshin, Putin actually took a very big risk at that time. "If the protesters really storm, he can't keep it alone. Fortunately, he handled all this wisely. "

However, Putin himself only played down this experience. He once recalled the scene at that time: "After a while, the protesters became excited again. I went to them, asked them what they wanted to do, and explained to them that this was a Soviet military institution. Someone in the crowd asked, "Then why do you have cars with German license plates? I replied: according to the agreement, we have the right to hang German car license plates. Then someone asked, "Who are you? Why do you speak German so well? I replied, "Because I am an interpreter. These people were very excited at that time. I called the Soviet troops stationed in Germany and got the answer: "We can't do anything without Moscow's orders. Moscow has remained silent ..." However, a few hours later, our army came. "

Putin stayed in East Germany for five years, but neither the official nor himself mentioned the situation at that time, which made this history a mystery. However, in the eyes of former colleagues and colleagues in East Germany, everything is not so mysterious.

A German political magazine once published an article saying that "Putin is just a small fish among KGB spies" and quoted the former East German security department "Stacy" Wolff as saying that when he worked in Dresden, Putin was simply a "nobody". The fact that Putin won a bronze medal only for "serving the GDR army" seems to prove this statement. Wolf even said, "Even the cleaners can get that medal."

Usoritsev, a former KGB agent who worked with Putin in Dresden, also said that they spent most of their time sorting out "meaningless reports". Usoritsev said that Putin's main task is to recruit spies working in West Germany. He only developed two spies in five years, and one of them was later arrested by the West German anti-espionage agency, resulting in at least 15 KGB spies being dug up.

Putin's story

This article was published on June 29th, 2005. Author:-Shading the lamp and whispering this article has been read 409 times.

Uneasy thoughts of restless students.

When Putin was eight years old, like other school-age children, he took up his schoolbag and walked into school.

Putin received primary and secondary education in two schools in Leningrad. He studied in 193 middle school for eight years, and then transferred to 28 1 middle school, which is good at teaching chemistry, and finished the rest of the courses.

Putin is not a good student. At best, it can only be regarded as a "late bloomer."

Putin, who just entered the school, is still attached to his carefree childhood and has little interest in learning. Although his home is close to the school and only takes a few minutes to walk, he is always late. In winter, before Putin could get dressed, he ran to school panting, and it took a lot of time to take off his coat at school.

Later, he thought of a good way to save time. He simply ran to school without wearing a coat. From then on, he can get to school on time.

It is no wonder that a person who grew up in a complex environment will always be uncomfortable for a period of time when he first arrives at a school with strong organization and discipline.

Putin is a restless student at school. After Putin became famous, according to the Russian Communist Youth League Pravda, a dusty student handbook was found in the countryside where Putin spent his winter vacation, which recorded what Putin did when he was 1 1.

A teacher wrote in Putin's student handbook: Putin "threw the blackboard eraser at his classmates before class", "didn't do homework at home" and "shouted in class".

On one occasion, Putin did not pay attention to the lecture in class, handed the note to another classmate, and was caught by the teacher and criticized.

Putin's academic performance was not good at that time. In the five-point system, arithmetic and science only got three points, painting got two points, and history and conduct only got five points. Because Putin's academic performance is not outstanding enough and he is very naughty, he has never been favored by teachers at school. Other students joined the Young Pioneers in the third grade, and Putin didn't join the team until the fifth grade.

Under the patient education of a teacher named Vera, great changes have taken place in sixth grade Putin. Not only did he make great progress in his studies, he lost three points and joined the Young Pioneers Organization, but he also became more sensible.

Once in a composition class, the title of the composition assigned by the teacher was "My Ideal". At that time, the teacher read several model essays and organized students to discuss in order to help everyone open their minds. "Have ambitions since childhood", students have all kinds of ideals and do whatever they want. Some students wrote:

"My ideal is to be a spaceship designer, and I will use my knowledge and wisdom to turn it into mysterious space travel again and again."

The teacher opened Putin's composition book and was dumbfounded. Putin wrote in his composition: "My ideal is to be a spy."

Although this name has never left a good impression on people all over the world, I think the contribution made by spies is very great from the interests of the country and the people.

In this composition, Putin first reviews the great role played by spies in the war years, lists the heroic deeds of famous Soviet spies, and then discusses the important role of spies in the cold war when the Soviet Union and the United States confronted each other. At the end of the composition, Putin wrote:

My father taught me from an early age to be a person who contributes to the country and the people, and teachers often teach us to study hard and serve the motherland and the people. The way I serve the motherland and the people is to be an excellent spy, exchange my notoriety for the defeat of the enemy, and win the victory of the motherland and the people with my sacrifice.

After reading Putin's composition, the teacher couldn't believe that such a profound and wonderful article would be written by a pupil who usually looks introverted, lonely and restless. Since then, teachers and classmates have had to sit up and take notice of Putin.

Putin's thoughts expressed in his composition and his strong patriotic enthusiasm for serving the motherland and the people were greatly influenced by his father. It is rumored that Putin's father is a diligent and charitable ordinary worker, but he is a member of the Soviet National Security Council (KGB).

Putin has always regarded Vera as a second mother. Until now, Putin, who has become president, often visits her, and they walk and chat together in the park. It is not easy for a reporter to interview Vera. It is said that it must be approved by the presidential palace now.

In Putin's eyes, KGB is a challenging occupation. Putin decided to join the KGB as early as 16. /kloc-at the age of 0/6, Putin went to the KGB office in Leningrad and asked to join the KGB. The office told him that they only accept college graduates and demobilized soldiers. Putin asked what kind of college students to accept. A: It is better to be a law graduate. So Putin decided to apply for the law department of Leningrad University to prepare for joining the KGB in the future.

1970, Putin was admitted to the law department of Leningrad University as he wished and took the first step to the KGB.

For a worker's family, it is undoubtedly a great happy event for children to be admitted to an institution of higher learning as famous as Moscow University with excellent results.

The university campus of the former Soviet Union in the 1970s was rich in cultural life. Whenever night falls. All departments have to organize various parties or other entertainment activities, but Putin rarely participates in these colorful parties. At night, students can always see him in the school library. Looking at his attentive expression when reading, no one had the heart to disturb him and drag him to the party.

Putin's academic performance has always been among the best in the university, with five points in all subjects.

Putin was an excellent wrestler as early as he was young. It is said that Putin likes wrestling very much since he was a child. Because this is not only a necessary means for him to protect himself from being bullied by others, but also makes him experience unique fun from it. Putin joined a special wrestling club for professional training when he was a teenager.

His middle school classmates also talked about such a thing: when he was in the ninth grade in 28 1 middle school, he had a fierce battle with a tenth grade classmate. Putin became famous in World War I at that time: the senior kicked Putin first and refused to apologize, which angered Putin, who was usually invisible. After some punching and kicking, the seniors were exhausted and lost. Putin thought that this was the end of things. Unexpectedly, after school that day, Putin was stopped by all the boys in the tenth grade led by his big classmates on the road. Putin quickly subdued the big classmate to the ground in front of everyone and swaggered away. From then on, no one dared to show his fist in front of little Putin.

After entering the university, Putin became fascinated with samba wrestling and judo. Besides studying, he spends most of his time practicing judo. After several years of hard training, Putin not only wore a black belt representing the highest level of judo and became an athlete, but also won the Leningrad judo championship with 1974.

Today, recalling the judo competition in those years, Putin was most impressed by the competition with world judo champion Volodya karenin. In that game, Putin lost, but at the beginning of the game, perhaps karenin was too contemptuous of his opponent. The short Putin left karenin behind neatly, which made Putin proud for a long time.

Another great achievement of his study in Leningrad University was that he met an economic law teacher, sobchak, who had a great influence on his future destiny, and led him into politics several years later. Putin began to listen to sobchak's class in the third grade, and established a good relationship with sobchak that transcended teachers and students. Putin's graduation thesis "On the Most Favoured Nation Principle in International Law" was rated as "excellent". At that time, the graduation thesis was reviewed by sobchak.

Sobchak was a famous reformist in the late Soviet Union. 1990, sobchak was the Soviet chairman of Leningrad. Later, he urged Putin to join his government, recommended him to President Yeltsin and introduced him into politics.
