Vladimir Bukovski on the EU, Russia, KGB, USSR

 

 

The famous anti-Soviet dissident Vladimir Bukovsky is the one who documented the criminal nature of the communist system and Russian imperialism, but he has another exceptional achievement. He is the one who, having access to the KGB archives, signaled the farce of the collapse of Soviet communism.

The "monster" was never destroyed, it was simply integrated into the modern world. The system was reborn under a different guise both in Russia and globally through supranational structures in the West.

Putin publicly declared that NATO, the EU and the West are the enemies of Russia, and all the actions of this country culminating in the 5 years of infernal war against Ukraine have fully confirmed the warning and prediction of Vladimir Bukovsky. .

AI's assessment of Vladimir Bukovsky's assessment and interpretation of the totalitarian system in Russia is probably much less partisan and more neutral than one made from one ideological position or another, and confirms Vladimir Bukovsky's vision and foresight in its essential points. .
 

Vladimir Bukovsky argued that the collapse of the USSR was not a definitive defeat of communism, but a "controlled collapse" orchestrated by the Soviet nomenklatura and the KGB. The goal of this strategy was to save assets, maintain real power in the shadows, and revive the system in other forms, both in the new Russia (through force structures) and globally (through supranational structures).. [1, 2, 3, 4]

This central thesis is detailed at length in his seminal book (Judgment in Moscow), published after the dissident secretly copied thousands of documents from the secret archives of the Central Committee of the CPSU. . [1, 2]

The pillars of Bukowski's theory of "controlled collapse" .

The failure of Perestroika as an initial plan: .Bukovsky explains that Mikhail Gorbachev did not want democratization, but rather the streamlining of socialism in order to obtain credits and technology from the West. When the system got out of economic control, the nomenklatura switched to "Plan B": the formal liquidation of the company called "USSR". [1]
Privatization of the state by the KGB : Before the USSR officially dissolved, massive funds of the Communist Party and the KGB were illegally transferred to Western banks and shell companies. *) The power structure metamorphosed overnight from a "socialist bureaucracy" to a "capitalist oligarchy", retaining the levers of control. [1, 2]
The Lack of a "Nuremberg Trial" for Communism: Bukowski warned that not officially and legally condemning the crimes of Communism would allow the monster to reinvent itself. Because Soviet leaders and KGB officers were not indicted or prosecuted, they quickly returned to rule Russia, culminating in the regime led by Vladimir Putin.[1, 2, 3]
The parallel EURSS (European Union as a new form) : In a highly controversial analysis, Bukowski argued that collectivist ideology and Soviet centralized structures had been reborn in the West in the form of the European Union. He called the EU the "European Soviet Union" (EURSSR), arguing that both shared an obsession with excessive regulation, the destruction of nation-states, democratic deficits, and the elimination of opposition through political correctness. [1, 2, 3]

Bukovsky's conclusion

The Soviet system did not die in 1991, it merely changed its skin. The nomenklatura abandoned a bankrupt ideology (Marxism-Leninism) to preserve its absolute control over resources, giving rise to Russian crony capitalism and extending its ideological influence into Western institutions. [1, 2]

Notes

*) This is also the recipe for the emergence of "cardboard billionaires" in Romania (probably in other post-communist countries as well) in which the nomenclature, the Securitate and their heirs took over the massive funds of these political and social megastructures (PCR, Securitate, UTC, Trade Unions, etc.) sanctifying the kidnapping through the Romanian Constitution because it omits the existence and regime of illicitly acquired wealth :

Art. 44(8)  Property acquired lawfully cannot be confiscated. The lawful nature of the acquisition is presumed (s.n.).

Vladimir Bukovski despre UE, Rusia, KGB, URSS

 

Celebrul disident antisovietic Vladimir Bukovski este cel care a documentat natura criminala a sistemului comunist si a imperialismului rus , dar mai are o realizare de exceptie. Este cel care avand acces la arhivele KGB a semnalat farsa prabusirii comunismului sovietic.

 "Monstrul" nu a fost niciodata distrus , a fost pur si simplu integrat in lumea moderna. Sistemul a renascut sub o alta infatisare atat in Rusia cat si la nivel global prin structurile supranationale din Occident. 

Putin a declarat public ca NATO, UE si Occidentul sunt dusmanii Rusiei, iar toate actiunile acestei tari culminand cu cei cei 5 ani de razboi infernal impotriva Ucrainei au confirmat pe deplin avertismentul si predictia lui Vladimir Bukovski.

                                                          

***

Evaluarea facuta de AI asupra evaluarii si interpretarii  sistemului totalitar din Rusia propus  de Vladimir Bukovski este probabil mult mai putin partizana si mai neutra decat una facuta de pe o pozitie ideologica sau alta si confirma viziunea si previziunea lui Vladimir  Bukovski in punctele ei esentiale.
 

Vladimir Bukovski a susținut că prăbușirea URSS nu a fost o înfrângere definitivă a comunismului, ci o „prăbușire controlată” orchestrată de nomenclatura sovietică și de KGB. Scopul acestei strategii a fost salvarea activelor, menținerea puterii reale în umbră și renașterea sistemului sub alte forme, atât în noua Rusie (prin structurile de forță), cât și la nivel global (prin structuri supranataționale). [1, 2, 3, 4]

Această teză centrală este detaliată pe larg în cartea sa fundamentală, „Judecată la Moscova” (Judgment in Moscow), publicată după ce disidentul a copiat în secret mii de documente din arhivele secrete ale Comitetului Central al PCUS. [1, 2]

Pilonii teoriei lui Bukovski privind „prăbușirea controlată”

Eșecul Perestroikăi ca plan inițial: Bukovski explică faptul că Mihail Gorbaciov nu a dorit democratizarea, ci eficientizarea socialismului pentru a obține credite și tehnologie din Occident. Când sistemul a scăpat de sub control economic, nomenclatura a trecut la „Planul B”: lichidarea formală a firmei numite „URSS”. [1]
Privatizarea statului de către KGB: Înainte ca URSS să se dizolve oficial, fondurile masive ale Partidului Comunist și ale KGB-ului au fost transferate ilegal în bănci occidentale și în firme-paravan *). Structura de putere s-a metamorfozat peste noapte din „birocrație socialistă” în „oligarhie capitalistă”, păstrând pârghiile de control. [1, 2]
Lipsa unui „Proces de la Nürnberg” pentru Comunism: Bukovski a avertizat că necondamnarea oficială și juridică a crimelor comunismului va permite monstrului să se reinventeze. Deoarece liderii sovietici și ofițerii KGB nu au fost lustrați sau judecați, aceștia au revenit rapid la conducerea Rusiei, culminând cu regimul condus de Vladimir Putin. [1, 2, 3]
Paralela EURSS (Uniunea Europeană ca o nouă formă): Într-o analiză extrem de controversată, Bukovski a susținut că ideologia colectivistă și structurile centralizate sovietice au renăscut în Occident sub forma Uniunii Europene. El a numit UE „Uniunea Sovietică Europeană” (EURSS), argumentând că ambele împart obsesia pentru reglementare excesivă, distrugerea statelor-națiune, deficit democratic și eliminarea opoziției prin corectitudine politică. [1, 2, 3]

Concluzia lui Bukovski

Sistemul sovietic nu a murit în 1991, ci doar și-a schimbat pielea. Nomenclatura a abandonat o ideologie falimentară (marxism-leninismul) pentru a-și conserva controlul absolut asupra resurselor, dând naștere capitalismului de cumetrie rusesc și extinzându-și influența ideologică în instituțiile din Vest. [1, 2]

Note 

*) Aceasta este si reteta aparitiei "miliardarilor de carton " din Romania ( probabil si in celelate tari postcomuniste ) in care nomenclatura, Securitatea si mostenitorii lor au preluat fondurile masive ale  acestor megastructuri politice si sociale ( PCR, Securitate, UTC, Sindicate,etc. ) consfintind raptul prin Constitutia Romaniei pentru ca omite existenta si regimul averii dobandite ilicit :

Art. 44(8) Averea dobândită licit nu poate fi confiscată. Caracterul licit al dobândirii se prezumă (s.n.).

Romania's lost cause or the decivilization and dehumanization of Romanian society

 

After 37 years of democracy, Romania has not resolved any of the major issues of Romanian society (the 1989 Revolution case, the June 1990 Mineriada case, .....the 2024 election case, the cases of corrupt officials, the special pensions case, the Russian drones case, etc.) and has remained the country with the most inept leadership (https://adevarul.ro/interviurile-adevarul/istoricul-armand-gosu-parca-niciodata-romania-nu-2536073.html), a country from which people leave and which has the largest emigration in the European Union (https://www.euronews.ro/articole/romanii-cei-mai-multi-emigranti-din-ue-studiu-peste-4-6-milioane-de-romani-locuia) :

A historical document. The interview that qualified Putin for the Hague tribunal

This is a historical document, Putin's most important interview that shows that he knows exactly what he did, what he is doing, and is fully responsible for his acts and deeds, so he qualifies 💯 for the Hague tribunal and Russia's Nuremberg Trial 2.0.

LinkedIn or the opinions of 300-500 million people. Does it matter?

 

LinkedIn is a special social network in that a large part of its members are real, civilized, educated and trained people who respect the rules of civilized dialogue (we exclude from the start influencers, diversionists, harassers, extremists, trolls, bots and fake accounts which unfortunately exist here too).
Members who matter have a certain identity and a visible social route and favor real dialogue (a dialogue between two pseudonyms on the Internet without a face and without a name is absurd by definition).
Finally, LinkedIn is a credible social network where people from any country can be up to date with real news from the most diverse fields respecting the rules of communication, dialogue and civilized polemics and can freely exchange opinions about the course of the world, politics, societies, culture, the international community and humanity (misinformation, diversions and fake news are taxed almost immediately). 

Maybe I'm overly optimistic, but I think this social network is the equivalent of the UN for civilized people in any country because it is the only platform that can play this role (the European Union should have created an equivalent, but it didn't). 
The potential of this network is immense through  the huge number of members already registered and through the social network generation algorithm:

• Registered Members (Total):  Over 1.3 billion.
• Monthly Active Users:  Over 310 million people actively use the platform each month.

In this context, the big problem of our world is the huge divide between citizens and those who represent them at the level of their country (politicians, government, state) and at the level of the international community (UN, international institutions and organizations).

The situation is repeated periodically at the global level. Between the aspirations of the people and the actions of politicians and global institutions, there is a gap that persists and even deepens continuously.

The scene is already a classic one.  Millions of people can demonstrate in the streets against a tiny group of politicians hidden behind governments, parliaments and bureaucracy, and globally behind international institutions and organizations that do not respect their own rules of operation.

Essentially, politicians, states, governments, parliaments, institutions and international organizations proclaim the need for laws and norms on which their existence is based and which they should respect, but which they violate (UN Charter, etc.), and ordinary citizens are the only ones who pay the price for violating them, sometimes with their lives.

Finally, the second major problem of the contemporary world is the changing relationship between real space and virtual space. 

The world has long become a global village in which processes, actions, tensions and wars in real space are becoming increasingly interconnected (the butterfly effect), more visible and are rapidly moving into virtual space where most decisions are already made, and the foundations of human morality are becoming optional. 

The question is whether countries, societies, civilizations and the world as a whole choose the path of civilization and humanization and respect for the values ​​of civilization and humanity or whether they enter the spiral of decivilization and dehumanization.

A simple citizen who respects the laws and norms of any civilized country cannot even get a job as a janitor at a school if he has a criminal record, but if he has criminal convictions, he can become mayor, parliamentarian, minister, or president. 

The paradox that gives us chills is that the fate of entire communities, countries, continents and the entire world depends on the sneezes and whims of some people who often have a hat that is too big for their head, and this is an anomaly of history that must be resolved in the interest of humanity. 

People are not equal among themselves (fortunately), but laws must be respected by everyone, not just by some.

Ultimately, beyond  politicians, states, governments, parliaments, institutions and international organizations, there is a silent majority at a global level that respects the political, legal, economic, social, cultural, religious and moral norms of their countries and through whose efforts all governments, states and international institutions function. This silent majority does not have the right to decide, but it does or should have the right to an opinion. 

In this case, we are faced with a unique situation. We know what  politicians, states, governments, parliaments, institutions and international organizations want and do because they tell us so every day, but we do not know what the 300 million people who are active on LinkedIn every month want and what their aspirations are, not to mention the 500 million or even more who also have an opinion that can matter.

The challenge is fascinating. A huge human community respects the values ​​of civilization, humanity and the foundations of human morality  exists and awaits a way to manifest itself,  unlike the politicians who have already provoked two world wars and laid the foundation for a third.
