Excerpt characterizing Furgal, Sergey Ivanovich

During his recovery, Pierre only gradually unaccustomed himself to the impressions of the last months that had become familiar to him and got used to the fact that no one would drive him anywhere tomorrow, that no one would take his warm bed away, and that he would probably have lunch, tea, and dinner. But in his dreams, for a long time he saw himself in the same conditions of captivity. Pierre also gradually understood the news that he learned after his release from captivity: the death of Prince Andrei, the death of his wife, the destruction of the French.
A joyful feeling of freedom - that complete, inalienable, inherent freedom of man, the consciousness of which he first experienced at his first rest stop, when leaving Moscow, filled Pierre's soul during his recovery. He was surprised that this internal freedom, independent of external circumstances, now seemed to be abundantly, luxuriously furnished with external freedom. He was alone in a strange city, without acquaintances. Nobody demanded anything from him; they didn't send him anywhere. He had everything he wanted; The thought of his wife that had always tormented him before was no longer there, since she no longer existed.
- Oh, how good! How nice! - he said to himself when they brought him a cleanly set table with fragrant broth, or when he lay down on a soft, clean bed at night, or when he remembered that his wife and the French were no more. - Oh, how good, how nice! - And out of old habit, he asked himself: well, then what? What will i do? And immediately he answered himself: nothing. I will live. Oh, how nice!
The very thing that tormented him before, what he was constantly looking for, the purpose of life, now did not exist for him. It was no coincidence that this sought-after goal of life did not exist for him at the present moment, but he felt that it did not and could not exist. And it was this lack of purpose that gave him that complete, joyful consciousness of freedom, which at that time constituted his happiness.
He could not have a goal, because he now had faith - not faith in some rules, or words, or thoughts, but faith in a living, always felt God. Previously, he sought it for the purposes that he set for himself. This search for a goal was only a search for God; and suddenly he learned in his captivity, not in words, not by reasoning, but by direct feeling, what his nanny had told him long ago: that God is here, here, everywhere. In captivity, he learned that God in Karataev is greater, infinite and incomprehensible than in the Architect of the universe recognized by the Freemasons. He experienced the feeling of a man who had found what he was looking for under his feet, while he strained his eyesight, looking far away from himself. All his life he had been looking somewhere, over the heads of the people around him, but he should have not strained his eyes, but only looked in front of him.
He had not been able to see before the great, incomprehensible and infinite in anything. He just felt that it must be somewhere and looked for it. In everything close and understandable, he saw something limited, petty, everyday, meaningless. He armed himself with a mental telescope and looked into the distance, to where this small, everyday thing, hiding in the fog of the distance, seemed great and endless to him only because it was not clearly visible. This is how he imagined European life, politics, Freemasonry, philosophy, philanthropy. But even then, in those moments that he considered his weakness, his mind penetrated into this distance, and there he saw the same petty, everyday, meaningless things. Now he had learned to see the great, the eternal and the infinite in everything, and therefore naturally, in order to see it, to enjoy its contemplation, he threw down the pipe into which he had been looking until now through the heads of people, and joyfully contemplated the ever-changing, ever-great world around him. , incomprehensible and endless life. And the closer he looked, the more calm and happy he was. Previously, the terrible question that destroyed all his mental structures was: why? did not exist for him now. Now to this question - why? a simple answer was always ready in his soul: because there is a God, that God, without whose will a hair will not fall from a man’s head.

Pierre has hardly changed in his external techniques. He looked exactly the same as he had been before. Just as before, he was distracted and seemed preoccupied not with what was in front of his eyes, but with something special of his own. The difference between his previous and present state was that before, when he forgot what was in front of him, what was said to him, he, wrinkling his forehead in pain, seemed to be trying and could not see something far away from him . Now he also forgot what was said to him and what was in front of him; but now, with a barely noticeable, seemingly mocking, smile, he peered at what was in front of him, listened to what was being said to him, although obviously he saw and heard something completely different. Before, although he seemed to be a kind person, he was unhappy; and therefore people involuntarily moved away from him. Now a smile of the joy of life constantly played around his mouth, and his eyes shone with concern for people - the question: are they as happy as he is? And people were pleased in his presence.
Before, he talked a lot, got excited when he spoke, and listened little; Now he rarely got carried away in conversation and knew how to listen so that people willingly told him their most intimate secrets.
The princess, who had never loved Pierre and had a particularly hostile feeling towards him since, after the death of the old count, she felt obliged to Pierre, to her chagrin and surprise, after a short stay in Orel, where she came with the intention of proving to Pierre that, Despite his ingratitude, she considers it her duty to follow him; the princess soon felt that she loved him. Pierre did nothing to ingratiate himself with the princess. He just looked at her with curiosity. Previously, the princess felt that in his gaze at her there was indifference and mockery, and she, as before other people, shrank before him and showed only her fighting side of life; now, on the contrary, she felt that he seemed to be digging into the most intimate aspects of her life; and she, at first with distrust, and then with gratitude, showed him the hidden good sides of her character.
The most cunning person could not have more skillfully insinuated himself into the princess’s confidence, evoking her memories of the best time of her youth and showing sympathy for them. Meanwhile, Pierre’s whole cunning consisted only in the fact that he sought his own pleasure, evoking human feelings in the embittered, dry and proud princess.
“Yes, he is a very, very kind person when he is under the influence not of bad people, but of people like me,” the princess said to herself.
The change that took place in Pierre was noticed in their own way by his servants, Terenty and Vaska. They found that he had slept a lot. Terenty often, having undressed the master, with boots and dress in his hand, wishing him good night, hesitated to leave, waiting to see if the master would enter into conversation. And for the most part Pierre stopped Terenty, noticing that he wanted to talk.
- Well, tell me... how did you get food for yourself? - he asked. And Terenty began a story about the Moscow ruin, about the late count, and stood for a long time with his dress, telling, and sometimes listening to, Pierre’s stories, and, with a pleasant consciousness of the master’s closeness to him and friendliness towards him, he went into the hallway.
The doctor who treated Pierre and visited him every day, despite the fact that, according to the duties of doctors, he considered it his duty to look like a man whose every minute is precious for suffering humanity, sat for hours with Pierre, telling his favorite stories and observations on the morals of patients in general and especially ladies.
“Yes, it’s nice to talk to such a person, not like here in the provinces,” he said.
Several captured French officers lived in Orel, and the doctor brought one of them, a young Italian officer.
This officer began to visit Pierre, and the princess laughed at the tender feelings that the Italian expressed towards Pierre.
The Italian, apparently, was happy only when he could come to Pierre and talk and tell him about his past, about his home life, about his love and pour out his indignation at the French, and especially at Napoleon.
“If all Russians are even a little like you,” he said to Pierre, “est un sacrilege que de faire la guerre a un peuple comme le votre. [It’s blasphemy to fight with a people like you.] You, who have suffered so much from the French, you don’t even have any malice against them.
And Pierre now deserved the Italian’s passionate love only because he evoked in him the best sides of his soul and admired them.
During the last period of Pierre's stay in Oryol, his old freemason acquaintance, Count Villarsky, came to see him, the same one who introduced him to the lodge in 1807. Villarsky was married to a rich Russian woman who had large estates in the Oryol province, and occupied a temporary position in the city in the food department.
Having learned that Bezukhov was in Orel, Villarsky, although he had never been briefly acquainted with him, came to him with those statements of friendship and intimacy that people usually express to each other when meeting in the desert. Villarsky was bored in Orel and was happy to meet a person of the same circle as himself and with the same, as he believed, interests.
But, to his surprise, Villarsky soon noticed that Pierre was very far behind real life and had fallen, as he himself defined Pierre, into apathy and selfishness.
“Vous vous encroutez, mon cher,” he told him. Despite this, Villarsky was now more pleasant with Pierre than before, and he visited him every day. For Pierre, looking at Villarsky and listening to him now, it was strange and incredible to think that he himself had very recently been the same.
Villarsky was married, a family man, busy with the affairs of his wife’s estate, his service, and his family. He believed that all these activities were a hindrance in life and that they were all despicable because they were aimed at the personal good of him and his family. Military, administrative, political, and Masonic considerations constantly absorbed his attention. And Pierre, without trying to change his view, without condemning him, with his now constantly quiet, joyful mockery, admired this strange phenomenon, so familiar to him.
In his relations with Villarsky, with the princess, with the doctor, with all the people with whom he now met, Pierre had a new trait that earned him the favor of all people: this recognition of the ability of each person to think, feel and look at things in his own way; recognition of the impossibility of words to dissuade a person. This legitimate characteristic of every person, which previously worried and irritated Pierre, now formed the basis of the participation and interest that he took in people. The difference, sometimes the complete contradiction of people's views with their lives and with each other, pleased Pierre and aroused in him a mocking and gentle smile.

Analytics: what Sergei Furgal did during 2 months of governorship in the Khabarovsk Territory

The Vostok.today portal about the activities of the new head of the Khabarovsk Territory Sergei Furgal. We present its main provisions.

“In general, so far in the region the activities of the new governor are perceived rather positively: he introduced a ban on luxury, saving, as follows from the messages of his press service, 800 million rubles for the period until January 1, 2019. These funds are promised to be used for urgent social needs And this, of course, is correct.

But this is a continuation of the election campaign. That campaign when Furgal opposed himself to his opponent, the ex-governor of the Khabarovsk Territory Vyacheslav Shport. Shport was showing off - Furgal was saving.

However, the elections are long over. And the new governor simply does not have time for a long build-up: this is not the situation. But, at least we have the impression that Sergei Furgal has not yet realized that the elections are long over, and continues to oppose himself to Vyacheslav Shport. And this is his main mistake. Because Shport is the past.

But people need the future and the present. For now, many residents of the Khabarovsk Territory are reveling in the joy of victory over the rather boring Shport and United Russia. But soon it will pass. And the same troubles and adversities for which voters blamed the outgoing governor will come to the fore: decreased income, unemployment, poor medicine, high prices for food, services, expensive air tickets, etc.

And they will compare the new governor Sergei Furgal not with Shport at all, but ... with his colleagues - the heads of neighboring regions. For example, with the Kolyma governor Sergei Nosov, a very tough leader who instantly, in the very first days of work, showed the bureaucracy that it would no longer be possible to sit idle as before. And everyone immediately understood who was the boss in the region.

Did people in the Khabarovsk Territory understand that Sergei Furgal is the boss? Is not a fact.

Where has Sergei Furgal been in two months? In Komsomolsk-on-Amur and Nikolaevsk-on-Amur.

The conversation was predominantly and very “dotted” about healthcare – both in Komsomolsk and Nikolaevsk.

This topic is close and understandable to Furgal - he is a doctor by training. In Komsomolsk, the governor inspected the children's hospital complex under construction; in Nikolaevsk, he promised that a new hospital would be commissioned here by 2020. People in Nikolaevsk complained about the shortage of doctors, especially specialized specialists, in Komsomolsk - about the same thing, and about the low salaries of doctors.

An incident arose regarding the salaries of doctors: answering a question from journalists, the Minister of Health of the Khabarovsk Territory, Alexander Vitko, said that only “lazy doctors” receive less than 47 thousand rubles a month. Journalists were outraged by this. Governor Furgal requested data on the real earnings of doctors, the highest and the lowest.

Everything would be fine. But the question arises: what, being a deputy of the Russian State Duma from the Khabarovsk Territory, and moreover, the deputy chairman of the RF State Duma Committee on Health, Sergei Furgal had no information about the real salaries of doctors in his region? I didn’t know because I wasn’t interested? What did he do then? Furgal is not a Varangian, he is a native of Khabarovsk, he started his career as a politician from here.

In the second largest city of the Khabarovsk Territory, Komsomolsk-on-Amur, there is a limbo situation with the mayor.

Current mayor Andrey Klimov, leaves his post on December 13. He was also asked to resign by ex-governor Shport. Sergei Furgal, having taken office, invited Klimov to stay, but somehow incomprehensibly. As a result, somehow without the participation of the governor, in the second largest city in the region, it was “decided on its own” that Klimkin would leave after all.

The acting mayor, the City Duma decided, will be deputy Dmitry Glushkov. In his interviews, he already says that he will run for mayor and run for office. He says - a lot and very convincingly - that the city of his youth is in a critical state, there is a crisis in key industries in the city. The future acting mayor says: “ Crisis managers will have to work.”

It turns out that there is a crisis in the city of presidential attention, which is Komsomolsk. But the governor doesn’t say anything like that. Elections for the head of the city will most likely be held in April 2019: this is the recommendation given by the regional Election Commission.

Sergei Furgal has not yet appeared in other municipalities. And this is definitely a mistake. The offended and abandoned province is one of the main reasons why Shport lost the elections.

Sergei Furgal did not travel to the province during the election campaign. He doesn’t favor her with attention even today.

Another news came from the federal center: five regions of the Far East will receive a total of 3 billion rubles, which they can spend at their discretion. These are Kamchatka, Primorye, Amur region, Sakhalin and Kolyma. This list does not include Chukotka, the Jewish Autonomous Region, Yakutia and the main, capital region of the Far Eastern Federal District - Khabarovsk Territory. There are also no “newcomers” - Buryatia and Transbaikalia. And the residents, of course, ask themselves – for now – the question: why? Why won't the capital region receive multimillion-dollar grants?

Grants, as stated in the government's statement, will be received by those regions of the Far Eastern Federal District that demonstrated the highest efficiency in collecting taxes and realizing tax potential in 2017. It turns out that the Khabarovsk Territory did not demonstrate? Then why did the same officials who were in the Shport team remain in all the key positions? People are already asking this question too. For now on social networks.

Scandal of the month - the United Russia faction in the Regional Duma initiated a law obliging the governor to coordinate the appointments of individual members of his government with the regional parliament. Judging by the reaction of Sergei Furgal and his press service, this event came as a complete surprise to them.

Furgal reacted to the media very late: he said that he had sent a negative review of the bill, recommending that the deputies “not engage in PR.” But the bill has already passed its first hearing. This means that the disagreement of the new head of the region with the law imposed on him, which significantly limits his power, was simply ignored.

To this we can add that the overwhelming majority of city mayors, heads of municipalities, and chairmen of municipal assemblies of deputies are United Russia members. How the new governor will build his relations with them is completely unclear. Furgal’s relationship with the business circles of the region is also unclear - there are no reports about this. Therefore, for now, there is no relationship. Of course, the new governor is communicating with someone, talking about something. But the region does not know about this. And in the region there are many large industrial enterprises - factories, ports.

Sergei Furgal still does not have his own team - many columns in the staffing table on the government website are still either empty or with the prefix “acting.”

The situation is more than alarming - after all, one of the components here is the population of the region. Will it turn out to be a “bargaining chip” in a big political game? And won't he soon regret his choice? At the last elections, Sergei Furgal received a huge credit of trust from the people. But, like any loan, it is finite.
