Participation in the activities of the State Emergency Committee

Anatoly Lukyanov writes in his memoirs that he did not consider the introduction of a state of emergency absolutely justified. He directly spoke about this to the participants of the meeting held in the office of USSR Prime Minister Valentin Pavlov late in the evening of August 18. He himself was not a member of the State Committee for the State of Emergency (GKChP). On August 20, a group of Russian leaders (Rutskoy, Khasbulatov, Silaev) met in the Kremlin with Anatoly Lukyanov. During the meeting, the Russian side put forward demands that boiled down to “the cessation of the activities of the State Emergency Committee, the return of Gorbachev to Moscow, but no special threats were made. Lukyanov had the impression that these demands were not of an ultimatum nature.” The lack of ultimatum in the demands of the Kremlin visitors spoke of their desire not to aggravate the situation and thereby keep the GKAC members from attempting forceful actions, and also not to rush things, that is, to prolong the uncertainty of the situation, which is beneficial to the White House. Former member of the Emergency Committee Oleg Baklanov noted: “Lukyanov took a very soft position, while a lot depended on the Supreme Council.” Lukyanov himself admitted: “I was not a member of the State Emergency Committee from the very beginning - I had different views.” Baklanov also noted the fact that Lukyanov was arrested later than all the other participants in the State Emergency Committee. In Lukyanov’s own opinion, he was arrested because “Gorbachev and Yeltsin were afraid that if he held the V Congress of People’s Deputies of the USSR, the deputies could nullify all the results of the August victory of democracy.”

He defended his dissertation for the academic degree of Candidate of Legal Sciences, and in 1979 - Doctor of Legal Sciences. In 1956 - 1961 worked as a senior consultant to the Legal Commission under the Council of Ministers of the USSR. In 1957, he was sent as a legal adviser to Hungary, then to Poland. In 1961 - 1976 senior assistant, deputy head of the department of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR on issues of the work of the Soviets. In 1968 he was sent to work in Czechoslovakia. In 1976 - 1977 Consultant of the Department of Organizational and Party Work of the CPSU Central Committee. He participated in the preparation of the draft Constitution of the USSR, adopted in 1977. His proposals provided for the creation of a Senate in the Supreme Council from the most prominent figures of the country, there were lines about human rights, self-government and other progressive ideas. In 1977 - 1983 Head of the Secretariat of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR. Since 1983, first deputy head, since 1985, head of the General Department of the CPSU Central Committee. In January 1987, he was elected Secretary of the CPSU Central Committee, and since November, at the same time, head of the Department of Administrative Bodies of the CPSU Central Committee. Since October 1, 1988, First Deputy Chairman of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR. He replaced P.N. Demichev, who retired, in this post. From May 1989 to March 1990, First Deputy Chairman of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR. From March 1990 to August 26, 1991 Chairman of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR. On June 28, 1990, at a Politburo meeting in Novo-Ogarevo, when discussing issues of the upcoming XXVIII Congress of the CPSU, M. S. Gorbachev named him along with the names of N. I. Ryzhkov, V. V. Bakatin, I. T. Frolov, A. N. Yakovleva, E.K. Ligacheva as a possible candidate for the post of Deputy General Secretary (Chairman) of the party. A.I. Lukyanov asked that the Chairman of the Supreme Council not be included in the Politburo. At the last Plenum of the CPSU Central Committee (July 23 - 24, 1991) he made a speech that was perceived as a clear bid for leadership in the traditional wing of the party. M. S. Gorbachev, whom he had known since his student years, was sensitive to his popularity as Chairman of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR. Their business relations in the last period were hampered by R. M. Gorbacheva, who disliked the ladies of the Lukyanov family. According to V. I. Boldin, A. I. Lukyanov are more educated and well-read, and this also irritated M. S. Gorbachev, who tolerated it with great difficulty. The shortcomings of A.I. Lukyanov are touchiness and suspiciousness. Delegate to the XXVI, XXVII Congresses of the CPSU, XIX All-Union Party Conference. Deputy of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR of the 11th convocation. People's Deputy of the USSR from the CPSU in 1989 - 1991. Awarded the Order of the October Revolution, the Order of the Red Banner of Labor, and medals. On the eve of the August 1991 events associated with the speech of the State Emergency Committee, he insisted on implementing the decisions of the national referendum held in March 1991 on the preservation of the USSR and on reflecting the results of the referendum in the draft of a new Union Treaty that was then being prepared. On August 18, 1991, he refused the offer to head the State Emergency Committee. When on August 19, 1991, the State Emergency Committee declared a state of emergency in the country, the Chairman of the Supreme Council signed a resolution convening an extraordinary session of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR, and also made a statement on the draft Union Treaty. The statement noted that the Union Treaty does not create conditions for the emergence of a renewed federation of equal sovereign states, a single economic space and a banking system, and does not contain guarantees against the “war of laws.” In his opinion, the Union Treaty is intended to create a confederation, not a federation of states, therefore it cannot be accepted in that form. 08/21/1991, when it became clear that the State Emergency Committee had lost, he demonstratively dissociated himself from it, giving a telephone interview to the editor-in-chief of Moscow News E.V. Yakovlev, in which he said that M.S. Gorbachev was “illegally detained” in Foros , that he “cannot help but go to the person with whom he has been associated for 40 years,” that he will fly to him at all costs, even if he is “finished there.” At 14.15 I flew to Foros on the same plane with members of the State Emergency Committee. He stayed separate from them, next to V. A. Ivashko. Together with him he was received by M. S. Gorbachev. According to E.M. Primakov, he was called a traitor by the Secretary General. M. S. Gorbachev sharply asked him why he did not assemble the Supreme Council and did not stand next to B. N. Yeltsin. A. A. Lukyanov began to present the matter in such a way that he almost organized resistance to the State Emergency Committee, but M. S. Gorbachev, pointing to the door, cut him off: “Go sit there. They will tell you which plane you will fly on!” Officially, he was not a member of the State Emergency Committee. On August 28, 1991, he resigned from the post of Chairman of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR. M. S. Gorbachev actually insisted on his guilt in the August events and handed him over to the prosecutor's office for investigation. On August 29, 1991, the session of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR agreed to bring him to criminal responsibility and arrest him as an ideologist of the State Emergency Committee. On the same day, a search was carried out in his office in the Kremlin, and he himself was arrested at his dacha by the Deputy Minister of Internal Affairs of Russia V. Erin and an employee of the Russian prosecutor's office. He already had a bag with personal belongings ready. I changed into simpler clothes, said goodbye to my family and headed to the car. From August 29, 1991 to December 1992, he was kept in the Matrosskaya Tishina pre-trial detention center and the hospital of the Main Department of Internal Affairs of Moscow. In November 1991, he was charged with participating in a conspiracy to seize power and abuse of power. While under investigation, he refused to testify and did not admit guilt in the “GKChP case.” In December 1992, by decision of the Prosecutor General, due to illness, the preventive measure was changed to a written undertaking not to leave the place and he was released from custody.

Arrest in the case of the State Emergency Committee

Anatoly Lukyanov wrote in his memoirs that he did not consider the introduction of a state of emergency absolutely justified. He directly spoke about this to the participants of the meeting held in the office of USSR Prime Minister Valentin Pavlov late in the evening of August 18, 1991. He himself was not a member of the State Committee for the State of Emergency (GKChP). On August 20, a group of Russian leaders (Rutskoy, Khasbulatov, Silaev) met in the Kremlin with Anatoly Lukyanov. During the meeting, the Russian side put forward demands that boiled down to “the cessation of the activities of the State Emergency Committee, the return of Gorbachev to Moscow, but no special threats were made. Lukyanov had the impression that these demands were not of an ultimatum nature.” The lack of ultimatum in the demands of the Kremlin visitors spoke of their desire not to aggravate the situation and thereby keep the GKAC members from attempting forceful actions, and also not to rush things, that is, to prolong the uncertainty of the situation, which is beneficial to the White House. Former member of the Emergency Committee Oleg Baklanov noted: “Lukyanov took a very soft position, while a lot depended on the Supreme Council.” Baklanov also noted the fact that Lukyanov was arrested later than all the other participants in the State Emergency Committee. According to Lukyanov himself, he was arrested because “Gorbachev and Yeltsin were afraid that if he held the V Congress of People’s Deputies of the USSR, the deputies could nullify all the results of the August victory of democracy.”

On August 29, the Supreme Soviet of the USSR agreed to bring its chairman to criminal liability and his arrest.

From August 29, 1991 to December 14, 1992, Lukyanov was in the Matrosskaya Tishina detention center, after which he was released on his own recognizance. On September 4, 1991, he was relieved of his duties as Chairman of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR.

First, Lukyanov was charged with treason. In November, the charge was changed to “conspiracy to seize power and abuse of power.” He refused to testify in the State Emergency Committee case because he did not consider himself guilty and could not contact people who, ignoring the presumption of innocence, declared him a “criminal” during the first investigative actions. Lukyanov’s arrest was opposed by his colleague, Chairman of the Supreme Council of the RSFSR Ruslan Khasbulatov, who in 2 years will also be behind bars. In August 1992, the prosecutor's office again, now for the third time, decided to change its approach, returning to the charge of “treason” and adding to it various types of malfeasance.

On May 1, 1993, together with former members of the State Emergency Committee Gennady Yanaev and Vladimir Kryuchkov, he participated in a demonstration that ended in a clash with the police.
