Chapitre 57: Interview with Alexander Vasilyevich Kolchak.
Interview with Alexander Vasilyevich Kolchak.
The September victory would undoubtedly be one of the greatest moments in the career of any sailor, Rear Admiral Alexander Vasilyevich Kolchak would then be sent to Sevastopol (Crimea), to meet part of the Black Sea fleet.
For various reasons, firstly, to be promoted to Admiral, and secondly, to receive other decorations for the feats in the battle for the Eastern Mediterranean.
The loss of large parts of the Greek Yeal family was a shame, but there was not much Kolchak could do now, the rest of the operation had been a success. And the latter was the really important thing.
Kolchak became familiar with many communications, radio messages, letters, and telegraph continuing in the midst of the New Great War.
The fall of the British Isles in the Mediterranean seemed a matter of time, but the ground war continued on many fronts.
"I have not seen men more courageous and loyal to the Fatherland and their Tsar than those of the Black Sea fleet."
-Admiral Alexander V. Kolchak on the defense of the straits.

Shortly after being promoted and reporting to the government (and the General Staff), Kolchak had a kind of ... interview, with the Little Gazette newspaper-magazine.
"What do you think of the future of the war?"
"Germany is in a compromised and defenseless position, most of the German forces are breaking down, the authority of the German state is on the wane. It is clear that the Imperial Federation is now leading the alliance." Kolchak reports his point of view.
"But what about the German victory in July then?"
"It is simply borrowed time. The Germans, our enemies, live on luck and English support." Kolchak responds promptly. "Most of the General Staff and the government, including General Brusilov, are perfectly capable."
"Most?"
"Our monarch, the Duma and our Premier have known how to guide us very well during the war, but it is obvious that there is a column in the country that is trying to set the tone. The Socialists ...". Kolchak indicates. "Some of our main directors of the intelligence services are Marxists. Those people dedicated to supposedly defending Russia from external enemies, when Marxism is precisely a foreign philosophy."
"There is a huge problem in the following governments once Premier Skobelev retires, the socialists have not stopped absorbing regional parties, such as the Armenian, Azeri and even Finnish parties." Kolchak indicates, it is not an opinion, it is a fact.
"Do you think the Socialists could be close to winning the elections?"
"If things don't change, yes." Kolchak states. "And this process has to be stopped somehow."

"A long-awaited new world is coming! Kolchak for the ministry of victory.
Kolchak will raise arms against the Imperial Federation and bring the war to an end. "
-Little Gazette, 1913 - ????.
The officers of St. Petersburg and Sevastopol loved Kolchak, with the victory of the Eastern Mediterranean and his rise, his prominence was remarkable.
As early as 1915, there were those who were nominating Kolchak for higher positions within the Russian Empire, whether minister ... or even higher.
Kolchak was an outgrowth of his time, a man fiercely loyal to the idea of the monarchy, Russian nation and the Holy Rus. With his family origins in the nobility (generally the Kolchak were associated with military affairs), Kolchak simply followed the course of the conservative and militaristic government of his time.
Back then, era led by the glorious Alexandrian period and the first Russian Premierships (Syoltpin's authoritarian measures and Skobelev's militarizing measures).
