Stalin's Afghan War. Battle of Central Asia
Any sections that apply to current and significant, will be translated. Links will be given here to the translated sections
The Afghan war began for the USSR not in 1979, when Soviet troops entered Afghanistan, but 60 years earlier. Even Lenin called this country "the key to Central Asia." The battle for Afghanistan - this great secret war, in which, in addition to the USSR, Britain, and the Third Reich, and the United States also participated - dragged on for the entire 20th century, is not over yet. And if we do not want to lose again in the battle for Asia, we have a lot to learn from JV Stalin, who, without entering into a direct armed conflict, was able not only to defend, but also to strengthen Russia's influence in this zone of our national interests.
