Stalin's favorite, member of the Central Committee, People's Commissar of Internal Affairs of the USSR, and General Commissar of State Security (a marshal's rank!), Genrikh Yagoda inspired both fear and respect. "Modern Russia is ruled by two men: the dictator Stalin and his Minister of Police, Genrikh Yagoda," so it was written and said in those years. It was Yagoda, a protégé and favorite of F. Dzerzhinsky, who served at Lubyanka for nearly two decades, who formed the all-powerful state security apparatus that existed throughout the years of Soviet power. But why did Stalin turn on him, and why did he become the first Lubyanka director to be executed? Much has been said about Genrikh Yagoda, but most of it is myth. This publication presents a portrait of the first People's Commissar of Internal Affairs of the USSR, based on recently declassified documents.
