Month did not give. The it is grown up - a potato, a beet, carrots,
Onion. Scientists check our products. However, a year three anybody
Did not check. There comes the son on a visit, give to it with itself gribochkov,
Sausages house, and its militiamen through a check point do not pass. You,
Speak, the woman Bringing down, people poison. Bad. For hunger the person
Will fast poison. Perhaps for a table will sit down? At me self-race is!
We have taken seat, and the woman Bringing down remained to stand. To it so it is easier - very much
The foot is ill.
- The doctor in Kiev has told - or heavy has lifted, or went much,
Or has fallen, or from radiation. Liquids in joints do not suffice. Well,
nehaj! Operation to do expensively. It is necessary to die. To me already 67.
The working experience at Valentina Grigorevny - years 70. Has collected on
To Chernobyl offsets. Therefore and pension the highest in village -
32 dollars. 13 more should pay extra "on acquisition of the pure
Products "- have run into debt since December. To meet the woman
Valej, we have paid to tour agency of 200 dollars. To Valentine Grigorevne
From this money it is not necessary cent.
Quiet phantoms.
From the booklet blows as marauding:
"Ecological and extreme tourism... With pleasure
We inform you the round program to Chernobyl!
... Reception of overalls and entrance to a zone. Acquaintance to Pripyat
- Nowadays a quiet city-phantom... Survey of left schools,
Hotels, kindergartens... The Meeting with self-villages - aged
Inhabitants of a zone of alienation... ".
Pripyat as the untidy dead man. Exposed on the general
Review. Dust, the fragments, the broken ladders, wine bottles,
raspitye sixteen years ago, scraps of newspapers for April of 86th.
monumentika, a floret. Only empty boxes from under
Films. The employee of Ministry of Emergency Measures Rimma Kiselitsa conducts excursion:
- See a big wheel, the sad history is connected with it.
Veins in Pripyat the little boy. A wheel it built the whole year, and
The boy considered days when it can sweep on him. A wheel
Should start on May, 1st. And on twenty seventh of April a city
Evacuated.
For last eleven years the zone was visited by 8000 persons from
Fifty countries. Basically - journalists and experts. But were and
Others. There came recently Kiev artist. Transport has paid,
Stay in a zone. Has brought with itself of the young man and girls, suits
Firemen.
- I have not had time to look back, and here the such has begun, - tells
Rimma.
What exactly has begun, it to speak hesitates.
The artist, appears, has conceived to remove in a city-phantom a series
Erotic photos. Has conceived and has removed. Not to banish it,
When money is already credited.
Girl Maria.
"Live exhibits" 477 persons. They lived here before failure, and
After evacuation have for various reasons returned home.
Come back have unfairly called self-villages, as if they
Have grasped the another's. Basically, it is old men from 60 till 95 years. Their villages
In radius of 16-25 kilometres from station. The nearest hospital in
District Ivanki - 70-80 kilometres with change.
Happen here and children. Come to grandmothers on a vacation. To 18
Years entrance to a zone is forbidden, but parents somehow pass
Check point. And in Chernobyl there lives the legendary Maria, three years old, for
All life never from a zone the leaving. Maria very few people
Saw. Her parents on spirit do not transfer tourists. They demand from
The authorities apartment in Kiev. The authorities speak, what is it blackmail, and stand
To death.
Background in residing places samoselov four times above
The admissible. The cow milk in some villages in 12 times
Blocks norm on radiation. People grow up the infected
Potato, the poisoned mushrooms and berries collect.
But tourists it does not concern. For a dinner to us have submitted soup with vegetables
From CHerkass and a chop from the Kiev pig.
nehaj go!
We and have not learnt, who the first has thought up to carry tourists in
Zone. Two organisations earn on it: the private tourist
Firm and agency "п?п я п?п?п я п я п п?я п я п п?я п?я п " - division
Ukrainian language of the Ministry of Emergency Measures. Tour agency no more than the intermediary. Places
Advertising also makes out payments. The rest - care of the Ministry of Emergency Measures.
The director "CHernobylinterinforma" colonel SBU (analogue of FSB)
Paul Pokutnyj has told to us what to carry in a zone of tourists have offered
Businessmen. They have insisted on inclusion in the program of the obligatory
Meetings with local residents. Paul Grigorevich does not see in it
Anything bad.
- Each person has the right to the information, which not
Is the state secret, - the colonel mints. - and that
Concerns samoselov we showed them and we will show, while
They will not send on errands you sticks.
In travel company too have not divided our bewilderment:
- First of all clients interest samosely, - speaks
"The manager across Chernobyl" Olga Vorobej. - we also try it
To please.
Even Jury Samojlenko, the liquidator, the deputy of the Supreme Rada
Ukraine, the chairman of parliamentary committee on liquidation
Consequences of Chernobyl accident, concerns such business
Easy.
- And why these people and not to show? - Jury argues
Ivanovich. - not to show - means to hold back the truth.
- nehaj come, - woman Nastja from village Opachichi speaks. -
I by Easter will bleach a hut, a table I will cover. Come, we here to most
Death we will be.
The inquiry.
Two explosions (nuclear and thermal) on the Chernobyl atomic power station on April, 26th
1986 - the largest technogenic accident in history
Mankind. It is polluted 140,1 thousand sq. km of territory of Belarus,
Russia and Ukraine. To some extent in these countries

Accordingly). In total from a pollution zone it is settled out nearby 150
Thousand persons. A background in a zone otselenija from 30 to 300 microX-ray in
Hour (at norm - to 20). But the greatest danger represent
The local products containing radioactive caesium and strontium.
The generalised data on a damage to health are not present. But, for example, in
Bryansk area for 16 years after failure it is revealed more than 200
Cases of a cancer of a thyroid gland at children. It in tens times
Blocks an average index across Russia.
