Joint operation of the NKVD and the Gestapo. How the NKVD collaborated with the Gestapo. Einsatzgruppen, Gestapo-NKVD Joint Detachments, Eichmann, Müller and the Jewish Question

Joint conferences of the NKVD and the Gestapo

During the four working conferences, practical mechanisms were developed for coordinating the work of the detective services, agreements were reached on the extradition of those arrested and persons representing a danger or interest to both sides, as well as on expanding contacts and exchanging experience between the Gestapo and the NKVD at the level of employees and the leadership of individual units .

All conferences, meetings and contacts between the NKVD and the Gestapo were held in strict secrecy, but the facts of contacts and individual results of this cooperation are known. So, for example, at least four joint conferences of the NKVD and the Gestapo are known, among which the third conference in Zakopane was the most significant.

First conference

There is little information about this conference, obviously, it was one of the short meetings with a limited number of participants, during which a list of issues of interest to both parties was determined and developed general approaches. The conference took place on September 27, 1939.

Second Conference

Third Conference

The third conference took place in Zakopane, a famous resort in the Tatras. About it, as about the "Conference in Zakopane", it is known most of all. The conference began on February 20, 1940 at the "Pan Tadeusz" villa, located on the road Zakopane - Bialka-Tatrzanska. The German side was represented by Adolf Eichmann, as well as Zimmermann, the future chief of the Radom district. On the Soviet side, among others, Rita Zimmerman, the head of the gold mine in Kolyma, which was part of the Sevlag system, as well as representatives of other departments of the NKVD, took part.

Fourth Conference

fourth and last meeting took place in March 1940 in Krakow (according to other sources, it was a continuation of the conference in Zakopane). It is described by the commander of the Home Army Tadeusz Bur-Komorowski in the book "Armia Podziemna" ("Secret Army"):

“In March 1940, we received news that a special delegation of the NKVD had arrived in Krakow, where they were going to discuss actions against the Polish resistance with the Gestapo. The NKVD was already aware of the existence of a centralized organization controlled by a single headquarters. Negotiations in Krakow lasted several weeks.

The meeting on March 29-30 in Krakow was attended by representatives and authorized persons of the German occupation authorities in Poland, the German Foreign Ministry, the SS, SD, military police and other departments. As chairman of the German Main Commission and as the highest official of the NSDAP and the SS, SS Brigadeführer and Major General of Police Governor of Krakow Otto Gustav von Wächter was present. The deputy chairman of the commission was G. Falde, a major in the military police.

The representative of the Gestapo - Department IV D (occupied territories) of the 4th Main Directorate of Imperial Security (RSHA) - and the SD in the German commission was SS Hauptsturmfüfrer Kurt Lischka.

However, from the documents that are stored in the Political Archive of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the FRG, it follows that on March 29-31, 1940, representatives of the Soviet commission were in Krakow, but not some kind of "special commission of the NKVD", as some Western and domestic authors, and the Soviet checkpoint commission for the evacuation of refugees. This commission, like the similar German one, was formed on the basis of an intergovernmental agreement. The Soviet delegation consisted of three people. The tasks of the delegation included the discussion of a number of issues related to the organization of the exchange of refugees, and the signing of the relevant protocol with representatives of the German commission.

Working contacts, meetings and joint operational activities of the Gestapo and the NKVD

The result of cooperation between the NKVD and the Gestapo was an agreement on the extradition of persons of interest to the parties. Among such persons, the NKVD ranked political immigrants, former tsarist officials, participants white movement, Polish activists, nationalists, etc.

The head of the NKVD of Ukraine, the direct organizer of the deportations from Western Ukraine, I. A. Serov, regularly met with representatives of the Gestapo to discuss issues of cross-border cooperation and interaction, the transfer of prisoners and detainees, as well as agreeing on a number of other issues.

The so-called "General Agreement" is a primitively crafted falsification. It was made in the 1990s, the authors are not known for certain. According to the most common version, the author is a certain German Nazarov, whose book "Myths of the Soviet era" is filled with such forgeries. It was first published in the anti-Semitic newspaper "Pamyat" published in Moscow in 1999. This "document", which tells about the joint struggle of the NKVD and the Gestapo against the "Jewish threat", was widely disseminated and was later partially quoted in the book of the writer Vladimir Karpov "The Generalissimo".

The fake demonstrates the total incompetence of the authors in the history of Germany. Already in the preamble, they begin to get confused in the name of the German department. In the title of the "agreement" there is "The Main Directorate of Security of the National Socialist Workers' Party of Germany (GESTAPO)". Now let's look at the preamble:

The Main Security Directorate of the National Socialist Workers' Party of Germany, represented by the Head of the Fourth Directorate (GESTAPO) Heinrich MULLER, on the basis of power of attorney No. 1 448/12-1, dated November 3, 1938, issued by the Chief of the Main Security Directorate Reichsführer SS Reinhard Heydrich, further according to the Gestapo.

The authors use the abbreviation GESTAPO to refer to either the entire "Main Directorate", or only its fourth directorate. But these are trifles. The Gestapo was never "The Main Security Office of the National Socialist Workers' Party of Germany". The Gestapo is the Geheime Staats Polizei, the Secret State Police. Those. state structure and not a party one.

A structure called the “NSDAP Main Security Directorate” did not exist at all. There was the Main Directorate of Imperial Security - RSHA (German: Reichssicherheitshauptamt, RSHA). Okay, let's say there's a translation error. But the RSHA was not organized until September 27, 1939, ten months after the date of the "agreement". Only then did the Gestapo enter the RSHA as the IV Department, and only from that moment was it headed by Heinrich Müller. Accordingly, only in 1939 did Reinhard Heydrich become the head of the RSHA (and his position was called “Chief of the Security Police and SD”, and not the chief of the Main Directorate), but he was never the Reichsfuehrer of the SS at all (he was from 1929 to 1945. Himmler was indisputable).

In continuation of the topic of titles, we note that Muller became an SS Brigadeführer only in 1940, and in 1938 he had the rank of Standartenfuehrer. In addition, on November 11, 1938, Muller was not in Moscow, as is clear from the Agreement, but in Berlin, summing up the famous Kristallnacht.

And finally, let's pay attention to the visa "That's right: the head of the secretariat of the NKVD of the USSR Mamulov S.S." Mamulov Stepan Solomonovich got into the Secretariat of the NKVD on January 3, 1939 as first deputy chief. He became his chief (and not "leader") on August 16, 1939, and at the time of the "signing of the document" he was in charge of the agricultural department of the Central Committee of the CP (b) of Georgia.

IN Lately Russia, as the legal successor of the Soviet Union, is increasingly being accused of collaborating with the Nazis. To do this, come up with all sorts of fakes. We have already analyzed some of them, for example, about the secret protocol to the non-aggression pact between the USSR and Germany or about the joint parade of the Wehrmacht and the Red Army in Brest.

Today we will analyze another one - the so-called agreement between the NKVD and the Gestapo, allegedly signed on November 11, 1938.

Scanned copies of the document on the Internet, of course, are of very poor quality, so we will mainly refer to the text, which is quoted everywhere.

I will not even dwell on the essence of this agreement, which is based on the German racial theory of the 30s - that is why the USSR could not sign such a thing. Consider the details that unequivocally prove the falsity of this document.

First. There is a gross distortion in the title of Beria's position. The fact is that in the circulated document his position is indicated as follows - head of the Main Directorate state security NKVD. Although his main position, to which, in fact, he was transferred from Georgia, is the First Deputy People's Commissar of Internal Affairs of the USSR. He was appointed to this position on August 22, 1938, but Beria became the head of the GUGB only on September 29, 1938, and then part-time. When signing contracts, including international ones, the highest position of the signatory is indicated.

Further. On the part of Germany, it is indicated: "The Main Security Directorate of the National Socialist Workers' Party of Germany (Gestapo)". In fact, since June 26, 1936, this office was called the Main Directorate of the Security Police and the SD. It included the Gestapo (secret police) and Kripo (criminal police). Accordingly, what was presented to us could not be written in the header of the document.

And again - in the "header" of this "document" the GUB NSDAP of Germany is identified as "Gestapo", and in the signature section of the Gestapo it is indicated as "4th Directorate of the GUB NSDAP", which is already nonsense.

Such nonsense could only arise from the ignorance of the falsifiers of the fact that the Gestapo became the IVth Directorate only on September 27, 1939, when the RSHA, that is, the Main Directorate of Imperial Security, was established. As of November 11, 1938, Muller could not sign the "General Agreement" as the head of the IV Department, especially the GUB NSDAP.

The topic of my today's report is "Gestapo and NKVD". I will make a reservation right away that some historians believe, such as: Igor Kuznetsov, Yakov Basin - these are Belarusian historians, as well as the British historian Robert Conquest, that these two organizations were practically "blood brothers", and further in my speech, I will try to argue these are statements by ghosting some facts about the similarity of these two departments.

I think that to begin with, it is necessary to tell about the history of the creation of these organizations, and only then talk about their similarity and close cooperation. So I will capture a rather specific period of time - the 30s of the 20th century, the pre-war period, the time of close cooperation between Germany and the USSR.

And so, I'll start with the "People's Commissariat of Internal Affairs of the USSR." Brief history of creation:

On July 10, 1934, the Central Executive Committee of the USSR adopted a resolution "On the Formation of the All-Union People's Commissariat of Internal Affairs of the USSR", which included the OGPU of the USSR, renamed the Main Directorate of State Security (GUGB). Genrikh Grigoryevich Yagoda was appointed People's Commissar of Internal Affairs of the USSR.

The newly created NKVD of the USSR is entrusted with the following tasks:

  • ensuring public order and state security,
  • protection of socialist property,
  • registration of acts of civil status,
  • border guard,
  • maintenance and protection of labor camps.

To solve these problems, the NKVD creates:

  • Main Directorate of State Security (GUGB)
  • Main Directorate of Workers' and Peasants' Militia (GU RKM)
  • Main Directorate of Border and Internal Security (GU PiVO)
  • Main Directorate of Fire Protection (GUPO)
  • Main Directorate of Correctional Labor Camps (ITL) and Labor Settlements (GULAG)
  • Civil status department (see registry office)
  • Administrative and Economic Department
  • Finance Department (FINO)
  • Human Resources Department
  • Secretariat
  • Specially authorized department

In total, according to the states of the central apparatus of the NKVD of the USSR, there were 8211 people.

The work of the GUGB was led by the People's Commissar of Internal Affairs of the USSR G. G. Yagoda. The GUGB of the NKVD of the USSR included the main operational units of the former OGPU of the USSR:

  • Special Department (OO) counterintelligence and combating enemy actions in the army and navy
  • Secret Political Department (SPO) fight against hostile political parties and anti-Soviet elements
  • Economic Department (ECO) combating sabotage and sabotage in national economy
  • Foreign Department (INO) intelligence abroad
  • Operational department (Operod) protection of the leaders of the party and government, searches, arrests, surveillance
  • Special Department (Special Department) encryption work, ensuring secrecy in departments
  • Transport department (TO) combating sabotage, sabotage in transport
  • Accounting and Statistical Department (USO) operational accounting, statistics, archive

Subsequently, reorganizations were repeatedly made, renaming of both departments and departments.

September 1936 Nikolay Ivanovich Yezhov was appointed People's Commissar of Internal Affairs of the USSR.

December 1938 Beria Lavrenty Pavlovich was appointed People's Commissar of Internal Affairs of the USSR

And so, now to a brief history of the creation of the Gestapo:

  • The Gestapo was created on April 26, 1933 by Hermann Göring, the Prussian Minister of the Interior. Initially, it was about a relatively modest body - department 1A (political crimes) of the reorganized Prussian police, whose main task was to monitor and fight political opponents. Rudolf Diels was appointed head of the department. Soon the department received the name of the Secret State Police. Rudolf Diels once said about the origin of the abbreviation "Gestapo" that it was an independent invention of the postal department, which abbreviated the supposedly long name and used the abbreviation in postmarks.
  • Gestapo units, except for Berlin, are being created throughout Prussia. At the same time, Heinrich Himmler, Reichsführer SS and head of the Bavaria police department, was working to unite the political police units of different lands. Gradually, the entire political police of Germany, with the exception of the Prussian (Gestapo), becomes subordinate to Himmler.
  • At the beginning of 1934, during the strengthening internal party struggle, and also due to the fact that Goering is increasingly concentrating on the development of the Luftwaffe, an agreement is reached that the Gestapo becomes the responsibility of Himmler. April 1, 1934 Rudolf Diels is relieved of his post. Although formally the Gestapo is still subordinate to Goering, in fact it is led by Reinhard Heydrich, chief of the security service (SD). From this moment on, the Gestapo develops into a comprehensive organization for surveillance and combating opponents of the regime, closely intertwined with the structures of the SS. The political police units of all German states are subordinate to the Gestapo in Berlin.
  • On June 17, 1936, Heinrich Himmler became the head of the entire German police; from that moment on, all police formations are no longer controlled by the ministries of the interior of the states, but are centrally subordinate to the Reichsführer SS Himmler. The units of the criminal (criminal) police and the political police (Gestapo) were reorganized into a single security police (German: Sicherheitspolizei (Sipo)), Reinhard Heydrich was appointed head of the main department of the security police, who received the post of head of the security police and SD. The department II (political police) is directly involved in the fight against the opponents of the National Socialist regime, the leadership of which is entrusted to Heinrich Müller. Additionally, the Gestapo has now become an instrument of repression against Jews, homosexuals and the so-called "asocial" and "lazy".
  • On September 27, 1939, the next step was taken to merge the repressive bodies of the state and the Nazi Party (NSDAP). The criminal police, political police, other police services and SD services are united in the Reich Security Headquarters (RSHA) (RSHA), the Gestapo entered it as the IV department under the name "Fighting the Enemy - Gestapo", head Heinrich Müller

Now let's actually move on to discussing what these 2 organizations have in common.

Both organizations were fighters against dissidents and opponents of the regime, they did not hesitate to crack down on those who were objectionable to the authorities. Stalin had his falcons, Hitler had his, but both used torture and execution. In Nazi Germany, people were persecuted on a national basis, in the USSR on a social basis, and they were united by their participation in the murder of innocent people. The Gestapo received the right to impose capital punishment in 1936, while the NKVD received such powers in 1934 after the assassination of Kirov.

Conc. camps in Europe appeared for the first time in Soviet Russia in 1918, having come to power in 1933, Hitler begins his activities with the same genocide!

The NKVD and the Gestapo also had close cooperation with each other against the backdrop of allied relations between Germany and the USSR in the pre-war years, and there is documentary evidence of this.

A document confirming cooperation between these two executioner organizations - "GENERAL AGREEMENT": On cooperation, mutual assistance, common activities between the Main Directorate of State Security of the NKVD of the USSR and the Main Directorate of Security of the National Socialist Workers' Party of Germany (Gestapo), which was signed during Muller's visit and his delegation to Soviet Union, this document is dated November 11, 1938.

Actually, I will read out a few provisions from this agreement:

People's Commissariat of Internal Affairs USSR, further in the text of the NKVD, represented by the head of the Main Directorate of State Security, Commissar of State Security of the 1st rank Lavrenty Beria, on the one hand, and the Main Directorate of Security of the National Socialist Workers' Party of Germany, represented by the head of the Fourth Directorate (Gestapo) Heinrich Müller, on on the basis of order No. 9 1-448 / 12-1, dated November 3, 1938, issued by the chief of the Main Security Directorate of the Reichsführer SS Reinhard Heydrich, further in the text of the Gestapo, on the other hand, concluded this general agreement on cooperation, mutual assistance, common activities between NKVD and Gestapo.

Taking into account the historical processes in the development of international relations, in which the USSR and Germany are the leading countries, as well as the fact that good relations are being established between our governments, friendship and cooperation are growing stronger between the peoples, at the same time, the desire of the common enemies of the USSR and Germany, directed to sever good-neighbourly relations, incite distrust, hostility, outright hostility and revanchist attacks, the NKVD and the Gestapo will conduct common activities in the fight against common enemies and will inform the governments of their countries of the results of such activities.

point 3. Realizing that the changes in the world that have taken place recently give our countries a unique chance to establish a new order in the world based on priority, wishing to add dynamism to relations between the USSR and Germany, the parties agreed on the following:

The text of the agreement is printed in Russian and German in a single copy, any of which is equally valid, sealed by the signatures and seals of representatives of the NKVD and the Gestapo. The Russian text of the agreement remains with the NKVD, the German text with the Gestapo.

Muller was delighted with the work of Stalin's secret police, namely the network of informers, in their homeland they began to practice the same methods. So under Muller, the Gestapo staff expanded, soon the Gestapo permeated the whole of Germany, just as it was in the USSR with the NKVD.

This same document marked the beginning of the exchange of experience between employees of both departments.

As for torture in the USSR, they were documented by the political bureau in 1937, in Germany there were no problems with this at all, they were actively used there. Employees of the Gestapo came on a working visit to their comrades NKVDeshniks, learned the art of torture, learned from experience. The executions of torture in both departments practically did not differ in their content, the methods were very sophisticated, sometimes even of a sexual nature, everything depended on the sick imagination of the executioners. History of the NKVD...

Cooperation between the USSR and Nazi Germany was not only through the NKVD-GESTAPO. For six years from 1933 to 1939, the USSR helped Hitler hard in every way it could.

Within seventeen months after the signing of the Soviet-German pact, Germany received from the Soviet Union 865,000 tons of oil, 140,000 tons of manganese ore, 14,000 tons of copper, 3,000 tons of nickel, 101,000 tons of raw cotton, more than 1 million tons of timber, 11 thousand tons of flax, phosphates, platinum and almost one and a half million tons of grain. The USSR actually turned into a sponsor of Hitler. As L. Trotsky wrote then: "Stalin became Hitler's quartermaster."

On the territory of the Soviet Union, the Nazis were preparing for future wars of conquest, and Stalin provided the German commanders, among whom was the notorious Hermann Goering, everything that they had no right to have. Treaty of Versailles: tanks, heavy artillery, combat aircraft.
