The heart of the Kremlin system, or the function of the Second FSB Service in the Russian safety apparatus

The Russian safety apparatus has for centuries been the core of state power, and its function has always gone beyond conventional safety understanding. Already in the Ivan Horror Opernyn era, it served not to defend citizens, but to destruct interior opponents. Carska Ochrana, and later russian peculiar services, developed the same principle: State safety was identified with maintaining loyalty to the ruler. alternatively of guaranteeing legal order, the safety apparatus focused on controlling information, political prevention and breaking down all opposition and opposition to power. After the dissolution of the russian Union, this model did not change. In 1995, the national safety Service (FSB) was established to officially defend Russia from terrorism and espionage. In fact, she took over the KGB's staff, methods and philosophy.
