      it is of course that no one will return anything as it was! But even though this recognition of the State will help at least somehow console (not make up for) the pain of loss !! If every official bloodsucker that sits on our neck at least a little felt his responsibility to the people and not to his pocket and was ready for self-sacrifice, then we would have left everyone at the point where they came from !! hi

'' I do not think that Karlov, going to the exhibition, `` felt at least a little of his responsibility to the people and not to his own pocket and was ready for self-sacrifice. '' It was just a routine routine for him. And if he could find out about the consequences, then a personal order of the GDP would not have taken him outside the embassy.

      By status, the Hero of Russia is appropriated for personal courage, and not for death at the hands of a terrorist.
      According to the Kremlin, then it is necessary to appropriate the Hero, all passengers of the plane blown up in Egypt and killed in Russia at the hands of terrorists.
      So the status of the Hero of Russia is only lowered.
      Nothing wrong with the deceased ambassador to Turkey, but Putin is hard to understand.
      This should not be done, but the king sees his own.

        In about 20 years you’ll look at the Hero and think about why he received the award. Either he drenched terrorists for a couple of years, or crossed the street at rush hour in the wrong place, or as if under Brezhnev, he lived to see the round date. With such distributions, the title of Hero will fall below the plinth.

            Yeah, as many as four stars of a hero and a star of a hero of social labor, for being a political instructor (political officer) heroically rubbed agitpropovy baidu for fighters and commanders, and earned for post-war T-shirts.
            And yes, Leonid Ilyich did not receive stars in the war.
            So for reference years of awards:
            Hero of Socialist Labor
            -1961
            Hero of the Soviet Union

            `` No need to rinse Brezhnev, he went through the war and got a Hero of the USSR in the war. '' You seem to be a great lover of dear Leonid Ilyich's works of fiction such as "Small Land", "Revival", and "Celina" about the heroic deeds of the General Secretary. It's time to know that the books were not written by him, but by a group of professional journalists on the instructions of the Politburo from his memoirs. And Brezhnev could recall anything, what was and what was not. Moreover, when the first book came out, Brezhnev had already given three Stars of the Hero.

          So for such a Hero is also not supposed to, but they give.
          Ask anyone - who is the king in Russia, everyone will answer correctly.
          The power in Russia belongs to the people, as it is written, but it is only on paper.
          But in life, everything belongs to the king.
          Really the king did not think, and how his decree on rewarding people will appreciate.
          And this is not interesting to him.
          After tomorrow he will spend the day of questions and answers, answer the necessary questions, and his rating is again 86%, and less than 50% come to the polls.
          Because it’s useless to vote, they’ll write correctly anyway.

        I agree! I apologize for copying Wikipedia.
        In the USSR, from 1934 to 1991, 12776 people were awarded the Golden Star of a Hero of the Soviet Union.
        Among the first - polar explorers, for the salvation of Chelyuskinites. It was a feat for that time, comparable, perhaps, with a flight into space.
        By the beginning of 1941, the title of Hero of the Soviet Union received 626 people, including three women and five twice Heroes.
        The overwhelming majority of Heroes of the Soviet Union appeared during the Great Patriotic War: 91,2% of the total number of awarded persons. For the exploits committed during the years of World War II, 11 thousand 657 people were awarded a high rank (3051 of them posthumously), including 108 twice (8 of them posthumously). Among the Heroes of the Soviet Union, participants in the Great Patriotic War - 90 women (49 of them posthumously).
        All the rest - before or after the Great Patriotic War.

        I will finish the topic. Turkey now, as well as almost the whole world today, is a very hot spot. The ambassador to Turkey today is a position, as it were, very delicate and requires remarkable abilities and intelligence from a person, but for the death due to shots in the back, I'm sorry, maybe I'm not quite right to give such a high reward. . .
        Of course, Andrei Gennadievich for hard labor was worthy of a government award during his lifetime, so why his work was not appreciated while he was alive! By the way, he was awarded the Order of St. Seraphim of Sarov III degree. hi

        Let's remember Mayakovsky. Just in time.

        “In our veins -
        blood, not water.
        We are going
        through the revolving bark
        so that
        dying
        incarnate
        to steamboats
        in lines
        and other long things. "
        I apologize in advance if I hurt someone. But I believe that the rewarding of the deceased ambassador with a Hero star is a discredit of this high rank. There is a status of this order - it is flagrantly violated. Even during World War II, many representations for the title of Hero did not find understanding among the country's leadership. And there, indeed, there was something to reward.
        If, like Mayakovsky, a ship or street in his hometown was named after Karlov, everyone would understand correctly. And so ... For death from a shot in the back ...

      This is a war, dear. Not long ago, I quoted Prince Daniil of Galitsky’s speech about war and casualties. I can not resist repeating the quote again, it hurts so much I like it.
      "What are you afraid of? Do you not know that there is no war without the fallen, the dead? Do you not know that you came naturally to the warriors, and not to women? If the husband is killed in battle, then what miracle is there? Others?" But houses also die without glory, but these died with glory!

You should get nothing less from the Turks. And they also owe the pilot for the SU-24.

In the high-risk zone, in Turkey, where there is a terrorist attack on a terrorist attack, the ambassador walks without sufficient protection, and in quiet Kyrgyzstan, former ambassador Vlasov did not even go to the toilet without a battalion of "security". There are no complaints about Lavrov, but on the whole the Foreign Ministry is working ... well, "unsatisfactory" at best.

        Quite understandable! He died doing his duty! He died while remaining true to his oath and honor! What are the questions here? You probably wanted to give him a "hero" for the fact that he rushed to the gang of militants with a bunch of grenades ??? You dear, put yourself in his place! And how good it will be for YOU after death from all these titles and honors! Believe it will be purple, but here's your loved ones help from the state!

    The Turkish authorities forbade the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service to involve its soldiers to guard the embassy staff in Ankara, Rosbalt reports.

    The journalists talked with a member of the Zaslon special detachment (the 7th department of the SVR Center for Internal Security), which protects Russian diplomatic missions in many countries of the world. According to the interlocutor, who agreed to be interviewed on condition of anonymity, the first threats to Russian diplomats in Turkey began to come over 10 years ago.

    "At this time, many militants who fought in the North Caucasus arrived in Turkey for rest and treatment. They posed a significant danger. Then they were joined by representatives of various terrorist and extremist organizations and sympathizers," he said.
    The special forces soldier noted that all this time the Turkish side did not give the appropriate permission, and only after the assassination of Russian Ambassador Andrei Karlov did they urgently return to negotiations. In the near future, an order to be sent to Turkey is awaiting at Zaslon.

Of course not! Like Andrei Karlov! Because the Title of the Hero of Russia, as I understand it, should be assigned in exceptional cases, even in isolated cases, because Heroism is not so frequent!

    Yes, he died. Yes, in the line of duty. Yes, it’s a pity, you see, there was a good man.
    But why the HERO of RUSSIA?!?!?!
    Under these three criteria dohreniliard people fit! And what, give all the Hero ?!
    And after all, this was already slipping. Our pilots that were shot down by the Turks were also awarded. But what was their feat? The fact that they let themselves be knocked down, but they were knocked down? The fact that they performed a combat mission? But there are thousands of military personnel, including the same pilots performing a combat mission. But they were not shot down and, therefore, they are not Heroes. The medical girls who died in Syria also became Heroes only because they came under fire and they died. And those who remained alive cowards or what?
    But this is obvious nonsense.
    It is necessary to establish some kind of medal or commemorative badge, handed over to the relatives of the deceased at the time of death at the post. Then it will be fair. And awards, especially such as the Hero of Russia, will not depreciate.

        To be awarded the title of Hero of Russia, you need to commit a heroic act. Initially, it was conceived, and so it is in the Regulation on the Hero. That is, the direct justification for the assignment of such a title should be some specific heroic deed, and not that "a good man". I am embarrassed to ask what specific heroic act Comrade. Karlov?

                So it’s very obvious that our President has violated the Law. Moreover, I believe that intentionally. I could not know in what cases the title is assigned by law.

                        And why are you insulting a person, comrade junior elevator? Your president really made a mistake, as many have pointed out to you using specific arguments. One can argue over who is supposed to discuss the president's decisions and who is not, but these actions will have very real negative consequences. There are many people who really deserve the title of Hero for their actions, and not because they were killed, but they somehow do not remember. And if for me (and I think, not only for me) the title of Hero of the Soviet Union is not an empty phrase and evokes sacred awe and respect, then the title of Hero of Russia, thanks to the actions of the VVP, is devalued and those who DESERVE it with blood and then earned , will be compared with those to whom it was "hung for so".

    Of course, I understand everything, Andrei Karlov was a respected person, but "Hero's Star" is, in my opinion, an exaggeration.
    I just want to give the GDPR a statute to read. The awarding of the "Hero's Star" not by statute only devalues ​​the award itself.
    PSAlexey Efentiev (Gyurze) when will they give the Star? Maybe it's time to collect signatures?

    Hero Karlov was given not in vain. I think he and his superiors assumed that he could be comprehended, otherwise they serve in our Foreign Ministry. I think the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is a very complicated thing in the modern world, not like under Brezhnev, when all the sons of cones were torn there in order to drag import and resell. Now it’s not that you imagine the work of the ambassador in Syria, or even in Germany, where at any moment you can be blown up or shot. This is even more difficult than that of the military, they at least know what they have to do, and are armed, and then he went out to the microphone and got a bullet! And you won’t put on a bulletproof vest, they will laugh! So Karlov Hero! Without a doubt. Peace be upon him and the earth rest in peace. I bow my head.

    what specific heroic act did Comrade Karlov?

    The feat is that in a warring country, which is a member of NATO, constantly moving its troops to our borders, a country that used weapons against our warriors acting on a legal basis, a country that has raided our land for centuries and is now not friendly, fulfilled his duty, doing everything to maintain a state of peace between our countries. Who can do it - fail!

    why then do not reward our oil workers working in hot spots? and as for whom it is possible, he studied for it ... but as for the quality of his work as ambassador, .. well, I don’t know. The fact that Turkey is periodically strained, is friends with the Kurds, they are terrorists, numerous questions about Russian tourists ... somehow it does not attract to perfect work. embassies generally ceased to fulfill what they were intended to defend the interests of their homeland. To uphold, not represent, is what should be the main thing.

Did the peasants lay their heads in battle? And this K is in an art gallery, well, at least not at the presentation of a ballet or an opera - "A Life for the Tsar". devalued the title. SHAME. And we are fighting for this, this kind of justice?

      Regarding the Hero ... In the USSR, the status of obtaining the title of Hero was clearly spelled out. 10 personally shot down enemy aircraft, 5 knocked out tanks, 10 sorties on a YES bomber, 100 killed by a sniper (although a sniper Pavlyuchenko could have been a Hero three times), and Pokryshkin and Kozhedub each have 5 stars (conventionally) ... You see, people, GDP While serving in Dresden, he was not blessed by the state of the USSR with awards, having received for the entire service the miserable, lowest in status Order of Friendship of Peoples. And that's it! Apparently, the resentment for the unreceived awards remained on a subconscious level. Hence the discreditation of trinkets. By the way, although Stalin had the Star of the Hero of the Union, he did not wear it, but the Star of the Hero of the Socialist. labor. Apparently he considered the last award more deserved. Zhukov had 4 stars and two orders of victory. I wonder why he got them? And Rokossovsky's "iconostasis" is poorer. But Moscow voted 64 times in honor of the victories of his troops. So that everything is relative.Well, what has arrived in the regiment of "heroes".

    - according to your logic, Oleg Peshkov was also given the title of Hero. According to your logic, he did nothing specifically heroic. He was just killed while he was doing his job, no?

        Mentioning the exploit of Matrosov is very helpful. Great example.
        My grandfather - Art. Lieutenant Zamakhov Vasily Vasilievich - was the commander of a company in which Alexander Matrosov served. I grew up on this feat. Pioneers constantly came to our home and asked grandfather about all the details. Until 68. My grandfather died of military wounds.
        By the way, he was introduced to the title of Hero when he in 41 with machine gun crew and one 45 battery held the crossing for three days. All died. He, half dead, was taken from an exploded bunker by our scouts, sent for language. Accidentally, his life was saved.
        The submission to the Hero was rejected. Awarded in half a year the medal "For Military Merit".

But chichas with rapture we hammer on the keys from the clever muzzle. Well, and those who are against this HERO - I want to give you only one thought: you so much and convincingly "spoke" and did not bring a cart and a small cart of reasoned arguments that I personally had the opinion that if you suddenly found yourself in the place of Andrei Karlovich .... and lying on the floor instead of him, they would suddenly raise their heads and say NO STAR IS NECESSARY, FOR I AM NOT WORTHY, or WE IF GOOD (God forbid you all to be in his place).
