Tsarina's arrest and campaign in the capital: how Kornilov fought for Russia

150 years ago, on August 30, 1870, General Lavr Kornilov was born, one of the most popular military leaders of pre-revolutionary Russia, the Supreme Commander in the First World War and the founder of the White Movement. As the son of a simple Cossack, he achieved unprecedented heights in military service due to personal courage, rigidity and determination, as well as high popularity in the troops. In March 1917, Kornilov arrested Empress Alexandra Fedorovna, and in September tried to seize power in Petrograd. After the October Revolution, the general devoted himself to the fight against the Bolsheviks and in April 1918 died from a grenade burst.

It is noted that the shortage may arise due to difficulties in the production and transportation of clothing in China. The deficit, according to the sources of the TV channel, may arise at the end of February. Therefore, in March suits from reserves will be used, and by April the customer plans to refocus on products of other manufacturers. We remind that Fukushima-1 NPP is inactive after the destruction of March 11, 2011, caused by a powerful earthquake and tsunami.
