Chernobyl 26 April 1986

[Jan Klimkowski]

There were design flaws in the Russian plant model which got put to the test when it was under pressure. There were also managerial problems in the plant between the different groups of workers there. It was in part because of this event that Gorbachev instituted his policy of Glasnost and Perestroika. To break down secrecy and create better avenues of communication. That was the idea anyway even if it was totally abused by some. While there are and were sleepers there in the country at the time there is no proof that there were any at this particular plant or that they had a plan to do such a thing. There was much more productive work happening in corrupting key individuals (Shevardnadze etc) to collapse the USSR financially by looting it. And as we see it worked. No unpredictable radiation fall out to deal with either just trillions $$$ transferred to the West. So, Chernobyl played its part in the counter revolution there but by accident rather than design. No doubt exploited by those who wanted the USSR system undermined. It was unfortunate that it was Gorbachev who was General Secretary at the time instead of some one less naive. Never in any of my discussions with pro-soviet Russian/Ukrainians has any one ever thought that there was a black operation in play in the event. There were many others not reported though.

Magda - yes, yes and yes.

If there is a conspiracy/black operation related to Chernobyl, it is in the post-event cover up.

Eg the limited information given out as radiation spread across Europe.

Eg the suppresson of the truth about medical conditions and birth defects suffered by those directly affected by Chernobyl.
