Many questions, riddles and even mysteries are associated with the name of Yuri V. Andropov. What do we know about this man? He was the closest associate of Leonid Brezhnev, had poor health and a sharp mind, was known as an intellectual and a lover of books, 15 years headed the world's most powerful intelligence service - the KGB of the USSR. His origins are still debated to this day. So are the reforms of the 1980s, high-profile cases against the "trade mafia" and the strengthening of discipline. During his short tenure as General Secretary (just over a year), many indicators of the national economy improved: industrial production grew, agricultural output increased, labor productivity rose, and the shortage of consumer goods became less acute. This book contains articles by historians, publicists, journalists, which characterize different sides of Andropov's mysterious personality.
