Dorenko's last pass - 1

Program from 09.09.2000
Socialization of television: the Kremlin against society.
Anniversary: ​​A year of blood and explosions.
Diplomacy: Japan throws Russia over its shoulder.

The program was not broadcast on ORT due to the fact that Sergei
Dorenko has been removed from the air.

Presenter on camera: Hello. We've lived a year since then
time since houses in Moscow were blown up. Anniversary of the explosion
on Kashirka - a little later, but this series of explosions is in my memory
not divided. Before Moscow there was Buinaksk. After that there was Volgodonsk.
But Muscovites are already accustomed to the fact that somewhere in the south
now flaring up, now fading, the war is going on. And not much about it
thought. The explosions in Moscow brought fear. Fear of
fall asleep Thoughts about how it will be with you close when
your house will explode. And hatred. Hatred is not only
to terrorists, but also to all Chechens in general. And then the power
received from most of us the right to shed any blood,
do everything, absolutely everything, including the use of nuclear
weapons, if it would help and if only we could fall asleep
calm. It was these explosions that made us supporters
widespread searches of cars, bags and pockets. Especially when
They search Caucasians. It was these explosions that made us
supporters of the fastest and most stringent measures to restore
order in Chechnya at any cost. And those explosions are still going off
in the soul of each of us.

Corr. in the frame: Official memorial service for those killed in a house explosion
onGuryanov Street is scheduled for 11 am. However, most
the residents of the house arrived here at night. Exactly one year later. From the 8th
on September 9th. People decided to remember their relatives and friends
exactly so that on the clock, as at the moment of the tragedy, there would be
midnight.

Caption: report authors Ilya Filippov, Mikhail Sotnikov 
Corr. behind the scenes: Places to stand next to a temporary
a memorial was clearly not enough. Flowers and candles were placed one by one.
Despite the late hour, people came even with children. Who
arrived later - quietly greeting acquaintances, they immediately went
to a wooden cross and a granite slab on which it is written,
that there will be a chapel here. Everyone is here this night
remembers what he experienced at this place a year ago.

Woman in the frame: When all this happened, God forbid,
Our apartment just collapsed. There was a small island left there,
where our whole family survived, and all the neighbors were nearby, everyone
relatives, we are like family, we lived in the house for 25 years, here at Alyosha’s,
we knew everyone - parents and relatives... and everyone died.
When we stood on the ground, the first moments, you know, this
it was scary: moans and screams, and save, help, it’s hard
remember... they were already carrying wounded children...

Corr. behind the scenes: At night those who lost theirs came here
friends. And of course, those who have lost parents or children. Yes
and people who say they have lost everyone. Explosion on the street
Guryanov claimed 109 lives. Several bodies are notfound. They say
that when clearing the rubble, people walked with buckets and collected
remains. Now houses are being built almost on the site of the tragedy.
The development area is indicated by the mayor's office. This is what this area looks like
during the day. Witnesses of the explosion claim that they had previously promised
make a memory lane.

Alexander in the frame: I came - my friend died here. The most
my close friend, whom I have known all my life since pioneer camp.
The body has not yet been found; I think there are 14 of them. Those
which were not found and whose relatives do not have graves. Im
there is nowhere to come but to this cross. And to the cross they
they come and see this construction site, which is constantly working.
And even now, when these people have gathered, they do not stop
work. (Do you think the work should be stopped?) I don’t think so
what needs to be stopped. I'm more radical and I believe that it's not
I should have started at all. But morality and morality are,
probably not the most important thing.

Corr. behind the scenes: The survivors of the terrorist attack were given housing.
369 apartments. Those who had a registration. The victims are sure
that helping them is the sacred duty of officials. Most
officials are convinced that the debt has been fully repaid in the first
days after the tragedy. Therefore, these houses, in this place - the next
stage of life of the capital. Which does not concern the victims. Apartments
houses are already on sale. Anyone can move in. If
someone will want it.

Corr. behind the scenes: Survivors of the explosion on Kashirskoye Highway,
notcounting those who were not at home then - only two. Yuri alone
of them. After the tragedy, he did not get up from sick leave for 9 months
beds. But after discharge, on the 13th of every month he
comes here. Talks to his late wife and remembers
that terrible morning.

Yuri Safontsev in the frame: My wife asks me in fear what
is this what it is? I don't know! I wanted to brush it off... and then...
Let's go down! When the fall happened I couldn't understand
what is it, maybe I think I'm dreaming. This happens in a dream - you're flying
there... And then I look, there are stones around me, I can’t breathe
(beginning of the chronicle)

Safontsev in the frame: After a while I heard not far from
yourself voices. I started screaming, and they immediately started digging me out.
When I started to move, I thought they were going to pull me out.
Let's grab my hands, pull me! I thought I'd get up and go some more
do something. When they just pulled me - that's when I was in pain
felt something serious (Safontsev’s scream on the chronicle,
rescuers: water for him! Water urgently! Drink from a fire hose)
They began to raise the slab. I was ready to die then. For
It's not a problem for me. I didn’t even want to live, to be honest,
after that.

Corr. behind the scenes: Yuri says that life was breathed into him
his own daughter, who looked after him. Went for treatment
all the money allocated by the authorities as compensation. After
explosions, compensation was up to 75 thousand rubles. Depending
from damage. Yuri does not live in the new apartment- no furniture, no money
They don't give it a second time.

Safontsev in the frame: I didn’t just ask: give me money
from the ceiling. The Foundation exists! At the prefecture of a given district,
where was the explosion? And there is money there. And my daughter is a council member
on the distribution of money. I didn’t just apply. From this
fund - and even then they don’t give money. Why?

Corr. behind the scenes: Victims of the Kashirka explosion also benefit
were given the keys to new apartments. 39 sets. Only to those who
was registered in the bombed house. Glass and frames of neighboring houses
repairs were made by non-local REU technicians, they were sent
to help the leaders of the Pechatniki district. That is, they helped
neighbors in misfortune - glaziers and carpenters were from the street
Guryanov. Now residents are complaining that the houses around the place
explosion needs to be overhauled.

Residents in the frame: We came - they told us that you are undergoing renovations
will not be done, only the appearance will be done. Yes
and answered. Let's get in touch - at best we'll get something
promise. Otherwise they will simply say - we don’t owe you, you want
Do everything for free, at the expense of the state. We'll do it for you
others will too.

Corr. behind the scenes: Here is the view from the window at the scene of the tragedy from the house
on the contrary. The block of wall with the window is clearly breaking off from the house.
Here is a paper beacon, installed to monitor cracks. The lighthouse is torn.
And this is the outside wall of the house. The crack is simply covered with mortar.
This is Kashirka. This needs a major overhaul. And on Guryanov Street
forThe authorities still have to build a chapel and a memory lane.

Ilya FILIPOV, Mikhail SOTNIKOV - ORT

Presenter on camera: At the same time, the second
operation to oust the militants. The first operation was under
Botlikh - in the south of the republic. The second is near Khasavyurt.
At a height above Gamiyakh.

Presenter on camera: This place has gone down in the modern history of Russia
as "height above Hamiyakh". Gamiakh is a village down here.
At this height there were fighters. Two companies of paratroopers rushed here
from the march and drove out the militants. After that this was the headquarters
Kazantsev, Novolakskoye, the last village, was liberated,
captured by militants.

Voiceover presenter: Now everything is plowed up here. Just nothing
not sown. For some reason, it was mostly hemp that came up on the battlefield
and here and there burdocks. And the shell casings are lying around. Trusting dog
I left my puppies here. Exactly in the same place where a year ago
there was an airborne infantry fighting vehicle going into battle for a TV tower on a nearby
height. Soldiers of the internal troops died at the TV tower.
And the paratroopers, exhausted by the night battle, were rushed to help
Veveshnikov. And all this together was called the battle for Novolakskoye.

Presenter in the frame (archive from 1999) - from the trench about the battle for Novolakskoye:

Presenter on camera: When we arrived here a year later, now,
a year after the fighting, I noticed a strong wind,
which interferes with work. Exactly a year ago there was the same wind.
Nobody heard him, he didn't bother anyone. Artillery work,
explosions,cannonade, rockets, the roar of helicopters - all this was drowned out
wind.

Voiceover presenter: There was a lot of routine, low-key, tired
heroism. The boys were sent into their first battle in their lives. They
For the first time we saw friends die. They looked for the first time
on the stumps instead of the arms and legs of their friends, they couldn't do it
understand. At first they didn’t understand why they should be afraid, but then there was no
time to get scared, and then they were in a state of shock and
They didn’t think very well. Fear never came to them. Brain
resisted and did not allow in the understanding that continuous
death is now a way of life for them. But gradually it
I had to admit.

Soldier in the frame (archive 1999): something not very clear.

Narrator off-screen: About three weeks before this attack
to Dagestan was recognized as being surpassed, experienced,
the attack on Dagestan was recognized as our glorious past.
And suddenly it turned out to be real again.

Putin in the frame: They run around there like hares, they don’t have any effect
resistance.

Narrator off-screen: The new hare raid cost us a lot of blood.
And the treacherous present did not allow us to enjoy the glorious
past.

A soldier in the frame about losses (archive 1999): About the fact that almost all
the company died.

Presenter on camera: This is probably the last one that hasn’t been plowed yet
trench... to the words - and they are open, frank and calm
they say that what we could not do with our hands, we will do
head.

Voiceover presenter: They are calmare engaged in campaigning. Not very
advertising yourself. And recruiting recruits for detachments in Chechnya. They
calmly move to and from Chechnya. To Khasavyurt
Up to 15 thousand Chechens arrive every day. To the markets. Trade
and buy. It's easy to get lost in the crowd. Moreover, he says
mayor of Khasavyurt, there are still many people left in Dagestan, directly
associated with militants.

Head of Administration of Khasavyurt (in frame): it is possible to carry out
some work in the republic to clean up those leaders
who hold positions, their children, brothers who have
direct connection with bandits. This is the first job that needs to be done
to be carried out in the republic.

Question: How widely do you think there are left in the field?
in rural administrations, managers who are connected
with militants?

Answer: A year ago we knew several Wahhabis against
existing government. Here they are all left for today
day. Everyone remained, and everything was in its place. But I’m already working
underground. No one can say exactly how much.

Question: But heads of administrations?

Answer: Well, there are leaders, of course. This is in all areas
except in the city of Khasavyurt. In our city of Khasavyurt
order has been established regarding this. But in other regions and villages
There are heads of administrations who have direct connections
with the bandits, and their children are there and in the fighting.
There were even cases. Were in combat situations. But they still
somehow freed, I don’t knowfrom punishments. Were detained
but have been released today.

Voiceover presenter: To the people who took part in the resistance
it is unpleasant for the attack of the Basayevites that no one has started the work
brings it to the end. And one more thing: they don’t talk about this here, but the situation
those who are against militants are also unsafe. They are threatened with revenge
and reprisal. And they have no doubt that their enemies will not spare them.

Presenter on camera: In Dagestan I met with a completely ordinary
a resident of those places who very vividly remembers the battle for Gamiah.
The militants' trenches were on his land. Then the Russian military
Wanting to eat, they shot and ate eight of his cows.
And now he is reclining under a tree in philosophical thoughts.
and argues that the war is over forever. But a little later
sums up that the war is over because cartridges
ran out.

- How did the fighting go here? Have you seen this?
- This is when here they are militants who came from here, and then ours
  military... from here they are already so they advanced, they ran away
  our military...
- You were there, watching from the village. Were you in the village at that moment?
- I went to the village... when they came from here... militants came here.
  This is our village. This is the gun... they got it.
- Two donkeys, this is your only livestock. Is there anything else?
- Here?
- Yes.
- Here it is when... eight pieces...
- Eight cows.
- No. They've already killed eight whole cattle here.
- Were those bombs?
-...bombs... Our military was killed by them.
- The military killed.
- ... ran awayfrom here...
- You are not afraid that there may be mines here.
- Like mines.
- There may be mines.
- It’s that no one saw the mine...
- Your grandson.
- My son, my grandson.
- A.
- My son's son.
- Grandson.
- Grandson.
-Are you telling him anything? Does he remember last year?
- How does he know?
- You will tell.
- Of course...
- What will you do - get cows again?
- Cows... What to do here... not...
- But will you start it again or not? Start having livestock again, again?
- Of course... We still need to collect.
- Don't think they'll come again?
- Who?
- Militants.
- Militants, where will they come from?
- From Chechnya.
- Already militants, where... will it come from. They ran away and killed. I did everything.
  I don't see any militants here anymore. What you.
- Are you sure they won’t come?
- Of course, they won’t come wherever they come. They have already run away. I don't have it
  here. We don’t know where he fled... The war is over, cartridges
  ran out. There are no militants anymore.

Presenter on camera: Grandfather says that maybe Vladimir
Putin will return eight cows to him. Or compensates for the loss of livestock.
Speaking about this, he laughs contagiously. He lets us know
that such an assumption itself is an undoubted joke. Many
my interlocutor's fellow countrymen do not joke at all when they are upset,
that they were forgotten.

Corr. in frame: This is what most of the houses looked like
in the regional center of Novolakskoye exactly a year ago. The militants entered the village
and held him for a week. Thenlocal residents said
something like this, let the feds destroy our homes,
but they will destroy the militants. Now a year later, not everyone is ready
repeat these words.

Caption: report authors Anton Stepanenko, Vladimir Kozin
Corr. behind the scenes: The villages of Novolakskoye and Gamiakh were often mentioned
in military reports last fall. Aviation and artillery for a long time
processed them before the soldiers and militia entered here.
There is no completely intact house left in any village. After
After the events of last autumn, the villages are actually being built anew.

Man in the frame: This is a hole from a controlled landmine. Flew up and
didn't explode. Then it was dismantled and handed over. The house is the same
holes. We have now painted over 2 rooms. These were the holes.

Corr. behind the scenes: You can practically see such holes
in every yard. True, if the buildings remain. Not all
residents still dare to thoroughly restore what
they had before the war. Many simply do not believe that a peaceful life
for a long time.

In the frame: It didn’t become calmer than it became calmer when
a person is calm inside, but people still have fear and,
Therefore, I would not say that it is calm here.

Corr. behind the scenes: Not only are they reminded of the war in the village of Gamiya
destroyed houses. In this yard, right in front of the house lies a part
unexploded aerial bomb. The sappers assured the owner
that it won't explode. Pirmagomed stillunderstands what
what's left of the house. Among whole stones there are often
fragments. He puts them separately.

In the frame: The children will go to school, they need to live somewhere. I'm the kitchen
restored. Are there any dishes? There are no dishes. What was broken
We washed it, collected it and use it. Broken furniture with nails

Corr. behind the scenes: Kitchen is just a name. This is actually residential
home for the whole family.

In the frame: I blocked off the room. Bedroom and children's room to

And the wardrobe also scored.

Corr. behind the scenes: No one is buying new furnishings in the village.
They take advantage of the fact that they did not have time to burn the militants or that they succeeded

compensation for the house and property goes towards construction.

In the frame: Then we saw one enemy, but now we can’t
determine who is an enemy and who is a friend. Especially, life proves
that the ruble is a heavy thing, and not everyone can withstand the pressure
ruble I mean damage restoration.

Corr. behind the scenes: According to the law, these people should
receive 39 thousand rubles per person and 50 for property.
If the house is subject to major repairs, then 14 and 20 thousand, respectively.
True, these amounts were calculated based on prices last fall.

Man in the frame: Every day the market goes up and up,
andPeople can't buy anything with that money.

Woman in the frame: Many took advantage of the fact that people did not
figure out what and how to get. The letter in the surname was changed,
for a person to run and to rip off many people
It’s not that they don’t trust, they are disappointed in everything.

Corr. behind the scenes: The Dagestan prosecutor's office is investigating 17 criminal cases
cases of theft of compensation money and extortion. Scheme
simple. The person is owed 50 thousand for the property. Him
They offer to share, for example, 10 thousand. And get
the rest. Otherwise, the amount may be reduced or
the name of this person will simply be lost in the lists. Unlike
from the mood of last autumn, now no one is here in Chechnya
sees him as an enemy. They say that there
the majority are the same hard workers as in Dagestan. They just

In the frame: There are at least 50-60 brigades from Chechnya in Gamiyakha.
Human? You can’t even count the brigades in the Novolaksky district.
Why? You have to earn a penny somewhere.

Corr. behind the scenes: Local police officers are not as complacent as
their civilian fellow villagers. They really note that the localsChechens are noticeably quieter after the start of the second war,
but they see no reason to calm down. This is the outskirts of the village of Tukhchar.
Chechnya and Dagestan are separated here by a river. Group of riot police
starts a three-month tour of duty. The outpost appeared after
attacks by militants on villages in the Novolaksky district. Since then
the task is simple to hold the road to Chechnya and recapture the village if there is
new attack. The police know their neighbors well and
talk cautiously about the prospects for the end of hostilities
in Chechnya and the threat to Dagestan.

On camera: I would say it, but you can’t say it to the camera. They are such a people.
No. They'll probably have it for a long time. Until the last militant is captured
and they won’t jail you.

Corr. behind the scenes: Local residents are proud people from birth.
They are embarrassed to talk about some things in front of the camera. Just,
in conversation, many say that they are haunted by the feeling
as if they themselves and their villages were being used. First action movies, then
troops, then authorities. Everyone got what they wanted. Action
showed themselves. The troops defeated them victoriously. Authorities
demonstrated their capacity, and they are residents

Presenter on camera: In Dagestan I also met Russian military men,
who feel deceived. They don't get paid like thatcalled
"combat". This is the money they should receive for participating.
in combat. People told me that some don't
received "combat" ones since April, and some of them have not seen
"combat" since May. While I was talking to people
in Dagestan, picketing of the headquarters continued

it is necessary to introduce a contract army on a contract basis. Us

  military personnel live in an apartment. Letters are received and written
  wives who have children in their arms, that they are already 2-3 months old
  the apartment is overdue, they have nowhere to live, they are being evicted, what should they do?
  This is the result we get.

Presenter on camera: This is not how we agreed. Men
and the women who are watching our program now cannot help but
understand a simple truth. Men cannot go to death with a thought
in their heads that their families are doomed to starvation, unless the president
will not give them 30 thousand dollars as in the case of Kursk.
Men going into battle cannot hope for gifts
from the president. Gifts humiliate them. They just have to
do your manly work without sacrificing your feelings
self-esteem. Agreements must be firmly
be observed. If the authorities send people to die by deception, if
the government is deceiving its soldiers, it’s hard for us to believe
in such sincerityauthorities.
