Eleonora Ioffe's new book "Heroes and Traitors. White emigration in Finland: intelligence war” tells about the fate of former Russian officers who left their homeland and are involved in the struggle against Soviet Russia. This is a story about the relationship between the Soviet Union and Finland for decades, when the country of Suomi turned out to be a springboard for the vigorous activity of opposing forces: Russian military emigration and intelligence agencies of Western countries, on the one hand, and Soviet counterintelligence, on the other. This is new information about the bloody end of the Trust operation and young Russian emigrant terrorists who are ready to give their lives for the “white idea”, not suspecting that their actions are being led by counterintelligence officers from Lubyanka.
The story is based on previously unknown archival documents - diaries, correspondence, interrogation protocols and police reports. Eleonora Ioffe's book will be in demand by everyone who is interested in the life and work of the Russian emigration, as well as the activities of Western and Soviet intelligence. Local historians of the Karelian Isthmus will find many new things in it. The letters of Kirill Pushkarev from 1930-1939 to Baroness Maria Dmitrievna Wrangel, mother of the leader of the White movement, General Pyotr Nikolayevich Wrangel, stored in the Hoover Archive (USA) and first published in the Appendix to the book, will cause increased interest not only among historians. They contain valuable, one might say sensational from the point of view of the history of Russian emigration in Finland, but practically unknown to anyone, information that will be introduced into scientific circulation for the first time.
