^According to
Andrey Illarionov, Timor Aikadievich Gaidar (
Russian: Тимур Аркадьевич Гайдар) was a high ranking
GRU agent posing as a Pravda reporter while he was in
Cuba,
Yugoslavia, and
Afghanistan during the
Soviet War in Afghanistan, as well as
Syria,
Indonesia, the
Persian Gulf,
Abkhazia and
Nagorno-Karabakh. At his home in Cuba, the younger Gaidar was six when he claimed he saw his father meet with Major General I. D. Statsenko (
Russian: И. Д. Стаценко), who was the commander of the 53rd (41st) missile division, Rear Admiral A. M. Tikhonov (
Russian: А. М. Тихонов), who was the head of counterintelligence of the Group of Soviet Forces in Cuba (GSVK) (
Russian: Группы советских войск на Кубе (ГСВК)), and Raul Castro, who was the Minister of War for the
Cuban Revolutionary Armed Forces, while 15 ships of the United States 7th fleet could be seen from his window although the 7th Fleet would have been in the Pacific Ocean during the
Cuban Missile Crisis which the Soviets called operation Anadyr (
Russian: операции Анадырь).[3][4]
