personally took part in many reconnaissance operations of recent decades. The

16th century to 1917.

The history
of Russian foreign intelligence: Essays: In 6 vols T. II. 1917-1933
The second volume highlights the
formation and strengthening of Soviet external intelligence (1917-1933) as part
of the political system of a qualitatively different state, which, however,
retained priority tasks and directions of the activities of Russian foreign
intelligence - protecting national interests, authority and power of the
country .

The history of Russian foreign intelligence:
Essays: In 6 vols T. III. 1933-1941
The third volume introduces readers to
the work of "legal" and illegal re-residents, major operations and
the fate of outstanding scouts in 1933-1941. The activities of the SVR during
this period were determined by two factors: the threat of a new world war and
the attempt of the Soviet state to prevent it on the basis of the principle of
collective security. In the face of the intensification of the
counter-intelligence regime, the influx of anti-Soviet propaganda and spy mania
in Europe and the United States, huge personnel losses during the years of
repression, intelligence selflessly fought for the information security of the
country's leadership, sought allies in the forthcoming struggle against
fascism, tried to influence government circles abroad in the right direction,
helped to strengthen the defense capability of the state.

The history
of Russian foreign intelligence: Essays: In 6 vols T. IV. 1941-1945
The fourth volume introduces readers to the work of "legal" and illegal residencies and biographies of prominent scouts operating during the war (1941-1945). At that time, reconnaissance activities were aimed at uncovering the military plans of Hitler's Germany, assisting in the deployment of the partisan movement in the occupied territories. In the final period of the war, Russian intelligence monitored the plans and intentions of the United States and Britain to restructure the post-war world, helped to overcome the US monopoly on nuclear weapons. In addition to this, declassified documents from the foreign intelligence archive are published.
The history of Russian foreign intelligence:
Essays: In 6 vols. V. V. 1945-1965
The fifth volume is devoted to the work
of "legal" and illegal residencies and biographies of famous scouts
operating in 1945-1965. The activity of intelligence in these years was aimed
at ensuring peaceful conditions for the post-war development of the country,
preventing the outbreak of the cold war into the third world war, and helping
the people's liberation movements in the colonial countries in their struggle
for independence. Russian intelligence in those years continued to follow the
plans and intentions of the leading capitalist countries to change the balance
of forces in their favor, helping to overcome the US monopoly on nuclear weapons
and the scientific and technological progress of our country. In addition to
this, declassified documents from the foreign intelligence archive are
published.

The history of Russian foreign intelligence: Essays: In 6 vols. V. VI. 1966-2005 - 264p., ISBN 978-5-7133-1 (V.VI)
The sixth volume ends with a series of
essays entitled The History of Russian Foreign Intelligence. He is dedicated to
her work from 1966 to the present: the dramatic period of the history of our
state - the height of the Cold War, the collapse of the Soviet Union. In that
difficult time for the country, intelligence reconfigured its ranks on a
democratic basis, sought and found new priorities, directions, forms and methods
of work, improved the structure, and updated the cadres. This is reflected in
some essays of the final volume.
A number of essays show the work of
foreign intelligence to uphold the geopolitical interests of our country in the
first postwar years, its activities to prevent the Cold War from escalating
into a "hot" one, to fight with the intelligence agencies of the
enemy on the political, ideological and economic fronts. New directions in
intelligence activity, caused by the dictates of the times, were also touched
upon.
Intelligence is still designed to help
ensure national security of the country. And its main mission - obtaining
secret information in the interests of Russia - will continue in the future.
