Truman already in April 1945, literally immediately after the death of F. Roosevelt, having made an official decision to change the course towards the USSR to “hard”. The aggressive position was adopted in spite of intelligence data from American intelligence agencies for 1944-1945, indicating that Soviet Union does not intend to pursue an aggressive policy that infringes on the interests of the United States; Moscow’s policy is defensive in nature.

In the wake of the euphoria of superiority and superpower mania in December 1945, the American president declared in his message to Congress that the United States was taking responsibility “for the leadership of the world.”

NIKITIN Vladimir Alekseevich

Colonel General, Doctor of Technical Sciences, Professor, Academician of the Academy of Military Sciences, Honored Specialist of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, Laureate of the Russian Government Prize, Honored Creator space technology, Honored Tester of the Baikonur Cosmodrome

Born on April 22, 1940 in the mountain village of Topuchaya, Shebalinsky district, Altai Republic. Father - Alexey Timofeevich Nikitin (1919-1943), died at the front. Mother - Nikitina Valentina Nikolaevna (1920-1986), primary school teacher. Wife – Nikitina Rimma Ivanovna, doctor. Daughter – Elizaveta (born 1963). Son – Vadim (born 1966). Grandchildren: Alina, Vladimir, Taisiya.

The life and fate of General Vladimir Nikitin is as typical as it is unique for a Russian officer of the military generation. He once chose a goal for himself - service to the Fatherland and walked along this path for more than 40 years consistently and harmoniously, having experienced many shocks, kinks, ups, and tragedies - personal, military, public, state. Military career of V.A. Nikitin is associated with the most powerful type of troops - the Strategic Missile Forces, into the formation and development of which he invested without reserve all his talent as a military engineer. He had to put the first missile regiments on combat duty, and more than once master new, more and more advanced weapons systems. As a military man, privy to many secrets behind seven seals, he knows what the arms race really means, what it looks like, and how the security of a citizen of Russia, America, and any citizen on planet Earth is ensured.

After a brilliant ending high school Vladimir entered the Saratov Military School (1957), from which he was graduated with honors. In 1960, with the rank of lieutenant, Nikitin was sent to serve in the newly formed Rocket Forces strategic purpose. It ends up in the Khmelnitsky region, where R-12 missiles are being put into service. The first years of service are spent on the construction of complexes and the development of the first launches of the R-12. It was during these years that military engineer Nikitin successfully mastered the technology of preparing and conducting combat training launches of missiles from the Kapustin Yar training ground, first as the head of the electrical fire department of the combat crew, later becoming an instructor of missile launches.

In 1966, Nikitin arrived to serve in the city of Derzhavinsk (Kazakhstan). It was at that time that there was an active formation of regiments armed with a new generation of silo-based heavy missiles R-36, designed by M.K. Yangelya. Over the 5 years of service in Kazakhstan, officer Nikitin masters the full cycle of formation of this type of missile system - from launching missiles to fully testing the system for their combat operation. Having gone through all the technical positions and passing through his hands every element of the new rocket and launch complex, Nikitin becomes a recognized specialist among rocket scientists highly qualified, master of rocket science.

Since fairly simple rockets were replaced by models with on-board computer systems, and the control schemes for these rockets require deep engineering knowledge, Nikitin entered the correspondence department Novosibirsk Electrotechnical Institute, which graduates in 3 years instead of the 6 required by the program. At this time, he became interested in higher mathematics, mastering its most complex sections - vector analysis and field theory. Continuing his service in engineering positions in Kazakhstan, Nikitin enters and successfully completes distance learning at the Military Institute foreign languages. All this was subsequently required in practice during the development of increasingly complex rocket technology, its creation and improvement, taking into account the experience of foreign rocket science.

In 1972, after the completion of the formation of the Derzhavin heavy missile division, Nikitin was transferred to service in Orenburg, to the command staff of a wider group, where his main task was to put into service a new type of missile - the R-36M designed by V.F. Utkina. In terms of the significance of his personal contribution to the development of this new weapon by the troops, Nikitin can rightfully be called one of the pioneers in the operation of this type of weapon, since the emerging Orenburg regiment was the first in the country in which the basic norms and rules of the future system of its maintenance, triple control systems, operational and technical control of weapons and organization of industrial guarantee supervision. The practical solution of these issues was entrusted to V.A. Nikitin as an experienced rocket scientist and highly qualified specialist.

From 1972 to 1975 Nikitin studied the most complex system industrial cooperation of the country in the field of missile technology, delved into the details of the work of general and chief designers, using all this to increase technical readiness and safe operation of missile systems in the troops. It was during his years of service in combat units that Nikitin formulated for himself a number of fundamental principles for ensuring safety during the operation of missiles. The problems that inevitably arose during the testing of new weapons led Nikitin to the understanding that missile systems must be operated according to the strictest rules, the same for both military and civilian specialists. The introduction of this concept was primarily associated with the solution of pressing problems of the missile forces associated with incidents that occurred at that time in the field of missile technology.

In 1976, Nikitin was appointed to the Main Command of the Strategic Missile Forces as head of the department for the operation of strategic missile systems. At this time, the ideology of continuous management of the operation of strategic missile forces weapons was finally formed, which, on the initiative of A.A. Ryazhskikh and A.V. Usenkova was already beginning to practically form in the troops. In this position, his primary tasks included resolving a set of issues related to maintaining the technical readiness of missiles on combat duty, strengthening industrial guarantee supervision, and creating systems for centralized operational and technical management of all technical forces of the missile forces. This issue has already been dealt with by many specialists under the leadership of generals N.F. Chervyakova, G.N. Malinovsky, however, the practical experience and special engineering talent that V.A. possessed. Nikitin, significantly accelerated the implementation of the most advanced system for managing the operation of missile systems in the troops. This ensured stability in maintaining high technical readiness of weapons and made it possible to avoid accidents and other incidents during the maintenance of nuclear missile weapons.

Having served in the Main Command for almost 10 years, Colonel Nikitin was sent to the post of deputy commander of the missile army for armaments. Thus, his area of ​​responsibility included groups that were armed with complexes not only of different types, but also of different generations. At this stage of his service, Nikitin participated in the implementation of the most complex programs from a technical point of view. One of them concerned the implementation of the international agreement on the completion of the operation of first-generation missiles, which began after the ratification of the Shorter and Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty. This was one of the first stages of the reduction of offensive weapons, according to which the American side eliminated the Pershing missiles based in Germany, and the Soviet side eliminated the R-12 missiles and Pioneer complexes. The difficulty in carrying out this task was that in the Soviet Union there were no technical bases for eliminating missiles in military, rather than industrial, conditions. Under the leadership of Nikitin, the first such base was created - “Lesnaya”, 20 kilometers from the city of Baranovichi.

A special program in the implementation of which Nikitin was directly involved was the placement of Topol missile systems on combat duty, which significantly strengthened the country’s nuclear missile potential.

Years of military service in managing the operation of strategic missile systems enriched Nikitin with valuable experience and created the basis for his successful solution of larger-scale tasks.

In 1990, with the rank of Major General V.A. Nikitin is appointed to the post of head of the Strategic Missile Forces Weapons Operations Directorate. This appointment coincided with the end of a stable period of operation of the system for maintaining the technical readiness of missile systems. With each subsequent year, the situation in this area deteriorated catastrophically.

General V.A. Nikitin had to fully experience the dramatic events when it seemed that the technical basis for maintaining the combat readiness of the nuclear missile shield was about to collapse. There were plenty of reasons for concern. Budgetary funding for maintaining the technical readiness of weapons has become disproportionate to its needs, industrial guarantee supervision has weakened, technological and performance discipline has deteriorated before our eyes, the collapse of the unified cooperation of the missile industry has begun and the transfer of a number of enterprises to the management of the CIS countries in accordance with the territories of their location. At the same time, the division of nuclear missile potential began, after which no more than 60% of all missile systems remained in Russia, the rest ended up in Kazakhstan, Belarus and Ukraine. There were also significant reserves of reserve weapons.

A natural consequence of the looming threat of the collapse of industrial cooperation and the loss of technical weapons reserves could be a catastrophic decline in the technical readiness of missile systems. Kazakhstan, Belarus, and Ukraine declared their nuclear-free status. Russia is faced with the most difficult diplomatic and technical task - the return of nuclear missile weapons through redeployment to its territory.

In 1993 V.A. Nikitin, already in the rank of Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Strategic Missile Forces, was instructed, together with other leaders of the Main Command, to carry out an operation to dismantle and remove all equipment and missiles from Kazakhstan, which was done in the shortest possible time. This was by no means a purely technical operation. There were complexes on the territory of Kazakhstan newest generation, the missiles and equipment of which were transported to Russian territory. Thanks to the successful completion of this operation, the Russian nuclear missile forces were able to update their technical base for the operation of heavy weapons, while creating certain reserves. Equipment exported from Kazakhstan made it possible to maintain the combat readiness of missile systems long time in conditions of underfunding.

In 1994-96, the task of returning weapons was continued. Before V.A. Nikitin was faced with the problem of dismantling and withdrawing the Topol missile systems from Belarus. However, at that time, interstate agreements concerning this issue had not been ratified, so Nikitin needed to coordinate decisions directly with the top officials of Belarus in personal meetings - through methods of explanation and persuasion. At times it seemed that the problem was impossible to solve. Only the persistence, state responsibility and diplomatic abilities of Nikitin, who achieved a personal inspection by President Lukashenko of the technical condition of the complexes, which at that time was alarming, made it possible to finally solve the problem of withdrawing the Topol missile systems from Belarus, deploying them on Russian territory.

The process of returning nuclear missile weapons from the CIS to Russia remained virtually unnoticed by the world community. However, this operation had important foreign policy and military-strategic significance for strengthening the status of our country as a great nuclear power and preventing the spread of unique missile technologies.

Nikitin devoted 1996 to strengthening the industrial complex involved in ensuring the production and supply of weapons for the Strategic Missile Forces, making enormous efforts and organizational skills to solve this problem, including at the interstate level. These actions of V.A. Nikitina made it possible to overcome the main reason for the instability of the industry - the lack of adequate financing. For this reason, from 1996 to 1998, missile systems functioned only at the expense of internal funds and reserves of technical reliability.

With the decision to unite the Strategic Missile Forces, Aerospace Forces and RKO into one type of force, an important area of ​​Nikitin’s immediate responsibilities became technical integration into a single control loop for missile, space and information weapons. It took titanic work to correct the deplorable situation in the technical condition of key infrastructure facilities at cosmodromes, test sites, as well as missile attack warning systems. This required not only significant funds, but also time. There was neither one nor the other. Under these conditions, Nikitin had to resort to non-standard solutions, introduce a regime of unprecedented savings in material resources and optimize the organizational structure of the weapons testing base.

From 1997 to 2000, under the direct leadership of Colonel General V.A. Nikitin developed and implemented a program for the restoration and development of space infrastructure, optimization of the composition of rocket testing units, and the elimination of redundant test structures that did not have tasks for the future. Instead of several scattered testing grounds, on his initiative, the Unified Interspecific Central Test Site of the Ministry of Defense was created. This program was focused on a more economically profitable organization of problem solving.

During the testing of the Proton rocket with the Briz-M upper stage, V.A. Nikitin acted as chairman state commission to conduct their joint flight tests. An accident occurred in one of these tests. The chairman of the commission together with the general and chief designers and, above all, with A.I. Kiselev and V.S. Rachuk conducted a full-scale investigation into the causes of the accident, which were clearly established. It was this work that made it possible to attract the attention of senior leaders to the problems of the rocket industry and take appropriate measures to correct the current state of affairs with the further operation of the Proton space rocket. During the same period, Nikitin established a state commission for flight testing of a heavy combat rocket as a carrier of space payload, organized and successfully carried out its first launch under the Dnepr conversion program from the Baikonur Cosmodrome.

The most important area of ​​Nikitin’s activity was the creation, testing, adoption and deployment of the new generation Topol-M strategic missile system for combat duty. This work proceeded at a high pace; significant resources were mobilized to achieve the result, and above all, the scientific and production potential of the country. Thanks to the titanic work of general and chief designers together with industrial enterprises and troops with the highly organized activities of the state commission under the leadership of V.A. Nikitin's flight tests of this missile took only 6 years, while usually it took 10-12 years from the start of development to adoption. In 1998, the penultimate tests were successfully completed, and in the same year the first Topol-M complex was introduced into the strategic nuclear forces at the missile base in Tatishchev, where construction and testing were also led by Nikitin. The full cycle of flight tests was completed by 2000, with parallel work to increase the operational strength of the silo-based Topol-M missiles. The first test launch of this missile from a moving ground complex under the leadership of V.A. Nikitin was also successful.

The last 10 years of service, although they turned out to be extremely difficult and intense, turned out to be for General V.A. Nikitin the most fruitful. An undoubted fact: with his direct participation, the Russian Strategic Missile Forces, despite all the difficulties economic situation The countries not only did not lose their combat power, but also created the basis for their development for the long term, maintaining the high technical readiness of the country's nuclear missile shield. This is the result of many years of fruitful service to their Fatherland by true patriots and professionals, which rightfully includes Colonel General Vladimir Alekseevich Nikitin, a proud, strong-willed Russian officer who loves his country.

According to V.A. Nikitin, with his successes in military career and in missile matters he is especially obliged and deeply grateful to Generals A.A. Ryazhskikh, I.A. Shevtsov, I.D. Sergeev, A.P. Volkov, A.V. Usenkov, as well as his wife Rimma Ivanovna Nikitina, whose help and support was constantly present during the most difficult periods of service and life.

After the reverse disintegration of the missile forces was carried out in 2001, Colonel General V.A. Nikitin came into the reserve.

He was awarded the Order of the October Revolution, the Red Banner of Labor, “For Services to the Fatherland” IV degree, “For Military Merit”, medals, among which Vladimir Alekseevich himself considers, perhaps, his most valuable award to be the medal “For Military Merit”.

Biography

Nikolai Aleksandrovich Nikitin was born on December 19, 1900 in the village of Mikhailovka (now Bobrovsky district, Voronezh region).

Civil war

In May 1919, he joined the Red Army, after which he served as a Red Army soldier in the reserve battalion, and then was sent to study at the Red Instructor Course at the reserve battalion. Southern Front, after which, from February 1920, he served as a Red Army soldier in the 46th Heavy Artillery Division (46th Rifle Division), in which he took part in combat operations against troops under the command of P. N. Wrangel in the area of ​​the Perekop Isthmus and the Chongar Peninsula, and then in the elimination of enemy landings in the Melitopol area, in defensive and offensive combat operations in the lower reaches of the Dnieper, the Perekop-Chongar operation and the elimination of banditry in the Crimea.

Interwar time

After the end of hostilities, Nikitin in August 1921 was sent to study at the 1st Voronezh command communications course, after which in 1922 he was sent to the 4th Kursk Infantry School, after which from September 1924 he served as part of the 11th th Turkestan Rifle Regiment (Turkestan Front) as a platoon commander, company commander, acting battalion commander, in December 1925 he was again appointed to the post of platoon commander, and soon served as assistant chief of the regimental school and company commander. In 1925 he took part in hostilities against the Basmachi.

From November 1926, he served in the 8th separate local rifle battalion (Central Asian Military District) as a company commander, head of the school for junior officers and regiment adjutant. In December 1930, he was appointed to the position of company commander of the 14th Mountain Rifle Regiment, and in December 1931, to the position of assistant chief of staff of the 6th Infantry Regiment of the 3rd Infantry Division.

From October 1937, he temporarily served as commander of the 186th Infantry Regiment (Kiev Military District), from May 1938, he was appointed chief of staff and temporarily served as commander of the 123rd Infantry Regiment, in August 1939, he was appointed to the post of chief of 1 1st department of the headquarters of the 187th Infantry Division, in April 1940 - to the post of chief of the 1st department of the 130th Infantry Division, and in January 1941 - to the post of chief of the operational department of the headquarters of the 27th Infantry Corps.

Great Patriotic War

With the outbreak of the war, Nikitin was appointed to the same position. The 27th Rifle Corps took part in the border battles on the Southwestern Front, and then in the Kyiv defensive operation. Since September 24, Nikitin was surrounded in the Boryspil area, from which he left with a group of officers on October 25, retaining his weapons, documents and uniform.

In November 1941, Nikitin was appointed to the post of head of the combat training department of the headquarters of the 40th Army, and in February 1942 - to the post of commander of the 153rd Infantry Division (63rd Army), which distinguished itself during defensive combat operations on the approaches to Stalingrad. For the successful completion of combat missions, the division under the command of Nikitin was awarded the Order of the Red Banner.

In November 1942, Nikitin was sent to study at an accelerated course at the Higher Military Academy named after K. E. Voroshilov, after which in June 1943 he was appointed to the post of chief of staff of the 35th Rifle Corps, which successfully participated during Battle of Kursk and the battle for the Dnieper. In September, the corps was transferred to the reserve of the Supreme High Command.

In June 1944, Nikitin was appointed commander of the 348th Infantry Division, which took part in the Bobruisk, Minsk and Bialystok offensive operations, as well as during the liberation of the cities of Bobruisk, Novogrudok, Volkovysk and Lomza.

for the release from custody of General GUEBiPK Denis Sugrobov, at one time did not impress the Basmany court. The disgraced anti-corruption fighter remained behind bars, but his guarantors (among them many high-ranking police officials), who themselves began to have problems with the law, faced problems. True, investigators stubbornly do not recognize a cause-and-effect relationship between these events.

As Kommersant reports, employees of the central apparatus of the Investigative Committee and the FSB of Russia detained the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for the Ivanovo region, an honorary employee of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and order bearer Alexander Nikitin. The major general is suspected of abuses during the construction and furnishing of the department's new building. It should be noted that inspections by the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the prosecutor’s office did not reveal any serious violations in the general’s activities.

The official representative of the Investigative Committee, Vladimir Markin, said that Alexander Nikitin was detained as part of a criminal case initiated by the department’s main investigative department. Investigators accuse him of committing a crime under Part 1 of Art. 286 of the Criminal Code - the use by an official of his official powers contrary to the interests of the service. Police Major General Nikitin, for whom the Basmanny court is to choose a preventive measure today, faces up to four years in prison.

The Investigative Committee refused to provide details of Mr. Nikitin’s case, but according to sources in the department, it is directly related to the construction and equipment of a new building of the Ivanovo Region Internal Affairs Directorate.

The old building, which housed the regional police and FSB departments, burned down on the night of January 21, 2008. As the investigation and the court found out, it was accidentally destroyed by police officer Alexander Komissarov, who threw an unextinguished cigarette butt into the trash can. As a result, two floors of the building were destroyed by fire, and two more were filled with water and foam. Premises with a total area of ​​5,523 square meters have fallen into disrepair. m. The personnel officer got off with a suspended sentence, but at the same time the claim against him for an unaffordable 33 million rubles was satisfied.

A new police department building with a total area of ​​29 thousand square meters. m began to be built in 2010 under the predecessor of General Nikitin, gradually putting it into operation and transferring the headquarters units there. Alexander Nikitin headed the Internal Affairs Directorate already at the final stage of construction - in March 2013.

And in the summer of this year, the prosecutor’s office, the FSB, and the department of own safety and the Control and Audit Department (KRU) of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Based on the results of their checks, the investigative department of the ICR in the Ivanovo region recently opened a criminal case against the head of the capital construction organization department of the regional Ministry of Internal Affairs, Colonel of the Internal Service Alexey Sheenkov, who was suspected of committing a crime under Part 1 of Art. 293 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (negligence).

According to the investigation, in the period from February 2010 to July 2014, during the construction of the police department building, “production volumes were inflated, prices were incorrectly applied when accepting and paying for work performed, and work was carried out that was not provided for in the design documentation.” The investigation estimated the damage caused by the actions of Colonel Sheenkov at 109 million rubles.

On Wednesday, the Investigative Committee of the Investigative Committee stated that Mr. Sheenkov is the only person involved in the criminal case, and General Nikitin is not involved in it in any capacity. At the same time, the department did not rule out that the general could be questioned as a witness, since, as the head of the department, he endorsed all decisions made by his subordinates. However, in the evening of the same day, General Nikitin was detained by employees of the central offices of the Investigative Committee and the FSB, who took him to Moscow, placing him in a temporary detention center on Petrovka, 38.

According to some reports, the basis for the detention was the conclusion of inspectors from the KRU of the Ministry of Internal Affairs that furniture for the new building of the Internal Affairs Directorate, in violation of departmental regulations, was purchased “at a cost inflated by five or more times.” The Ministry of Internal Affairs reported that General Nikitin was suspended from office for the period of investigation.

In turn, the defense of the ex-chief of the GUEBiPK Ministry of Internal Affairs Denis Sugrobov linked problems, which arose from General Nikitin, with the fact that in July of this year he acted as one of the guarantors in the case of the former main anti-corruption fighter in the Basmanny Court. Representatives of General Sugrobov noted that many guarantors were already subject to sanctions. For example, four heads of departments and a dozen heads of departments of the GUEBiPK were not accepted into the staff of the reorganized department, and the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the KBR, Sergei Vasiliev, is now being checked by the same departments that previously checked General Nikitin (the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the KBR refrained from commenting on this matter).

The lawyers noted that Mr. Sugrobov, who is now in a pre-trial detention center on charges of organizing a criminal community, is going to act as a guarantor during the meeting of the Basmanny Court, at which a preventive measure will be chosen for General Nikitin. The prisoner himself will not be brought to court, but the lawyers expect to prepare a corresponding statement to the court.

The Investigative Committee did not comment on the lawyers’ assumptions, noting only that different investigative groups are looking into the cases of Generals Nikitin and Sugrobov.

Yesterday, the Frunzensky District Court of Ivanovo sentenced to three years in prison the ex-chief of the Ivanovo Region Ministry of Internal Affairs, Alexander Nikitin, who was under investigation after he vouched for the former head of the GUEBiPK Denis Sugrobova. He was tried for exceeding his authority - the Investigative Committee established that during the construction of the new building of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the general spent more than 91 million rubles on work not provided for by the project, which is why the facility was never put into operation. The defense is going to appeal the verdict - according to the examination and testimony of witnesses, there were no violations on the part of Mr. Nikitin at all.

Judge Nikolai Vergazov found Major General Nikitin and the former head of the department for organizing capital construction of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for the Ivanovo Region, Alexei Sheenkov, guilty of committing a crime under Part 3 of Art. 286 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (exceeding official powers). Based on the materials of the main investigative department of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation, which investigated this case, the court found that in 2013-2014, during the construction of the building of the regional Ministry of Internal Affairs, the defendants organized the execution of work not provided for by the state contract, including expensive finishing of the premises using marble and granite.

At the same time, furniture was purchased for the management staff, the cost of which, according to investigators, was beyond the scope of the contract. All this led to the fact that there was not enough money to carry out other work, including creating an information security system in the building. Moreover, due to lack of funding, all work was suspended for more than a year, and the Ivanovo police never moved to their new office. The damage from the general’s actions, as the investigation calculated, exceeded 218 million rubles.

[NEWSru.com, 06/10/2016, “The former head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for the Ivanovo region was sentenced to a colony for the luxurious decoration of his offices”: More than 91 million rubles intended for work on putting into operation a system to ensure secrecy, security and protection, on Nikitin’s instructions, were aimed at expensive finishing it personal account and the offices of his deputies.
In particular, parquet flooring and furniture made from precious wood were purchased, and the VIP dining room was furnished in Italian style. “Classic furniture made of precious wood, leather chairs, frescoes, relief plaster...” - the Ivanovo city portal 37.ru describes the decoration of one of the offices. […]
The court does not doubt the testimony of Alexey Sheenkov, a subordinate of the ex-chief of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. The decision to spend money on offices was not a collegial one; Nikitin personally approved the changes.
The information security system was not completed; a delay in the construction of the Ministry of Internal Affairs building occurred due to additional work that brought chaos. As a result, the new building at 47 Kuznetsova Street was not put into operation by the end of 2013. Nikitin's defense stated that the work was not carried out because the funds were used for the construction of Olympic facilities in Sochi, but the court was critical of this remark.
According to the court, there was no need for new finishing works or the purchase of expensive furniture. The exclusive decoration of the general’s office alone cost 11 million. Nikitin’s testimony about free money saved is not confirmed by anyone. - Insert K.ru]

During the trial, his defense argued the opposite.

Analyzing the examination that formed the basis of the case, lawyer Airat Khikmatullin came to the conclusion that it only confirmed the innocence of his client. Thus, the amount of 218 million rubles, called damage in the indictment, according to the defense, was not actually such. According to Mr. Khikmatullin, during the interrogation of experts (and the accusation was based on their research), it turned out that when determining the damage, they took as a basis the entire cost of the work performed in the building of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, including the work that was provided for in the design and estimate documentation.

Moreover, it turned out that the furniture, for which the general allegedly overpaid, was not paid for by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. And the expensive frescoes on the walls of the future police canteen, which experts paid special attention to, were just graffiti, paid for with funds collected by the police themselves. As for the protection of information, as the experts themselves explained, they did not study this problem at all, since they did not have the authority. All this, according to the defense, indicated that the examination was carried out poorly and the experts’ conclusions were unreliable.

The prosecutor's office partially agreed with this opinion and adjusted its position. In particular, during the debate, alleged violations with the purchase of furniture were excluded from the charges, and the amount of damage was reduced to 91 million rubles. Nevertheless, the state prosecution requested a four-year sentence for Alexander Nikitin, and a three-year suspended sentence for Alexey Sheenkov, who actively cooperated with the investigation.

Speaking with the last word, General Nikitin called his accomplice Sheenkov, who testified against him, a “scoundrel.” According to the general, he did not “steal a penny” from the facility under construction, but only wanted to make sure that the police building became an adornment of the architecture of Ivanovo.

The judge spent about two weeks preparing the verdict, and announced it in two days. Moreover, as the general’s defense claims, it was actually based on the indictment. Alexander Nikitin was sentenced to three years in a general regime colony, in addition, he was stripped of the rank of police major general and the Order of Honor. At the same time, he was given the medal of the Order of Merit for the Fatherland, II degree, as well as the title of honorary employee of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Alexey Sheenkov received three and a half years of suspended imprisonment with a probationary period of three years.

Lawyer Khikmatullin said that the verdict will be appealed to the Ivanovo Regional Court, and if it remains in force, the ex-general’s defense will file a petition for his parole. The ex-chief of the Ministry of Internal Affairs has already served a year and a half under investigation and trial.
