kontora (сленговое внутренне название КГБ: There was no doubt in his mind that it was a Kontora job. • The conference caused a great scandal. Not only was the FSB fublicly accused of organizing murders or conspiring to do so but also it was the first time ever that active duty officers had spoken out against the kontora ('bureau'), as the security service is mockingly called in Russia. • Like C.I.A. officers, who call their agency by a variety of nicknames, of which "the Company" is best known, Soviet case officers never refer to the K.G.B. – the initials stand for Komitet Gosudarstvennoi Bezopasnosti, or Committee for State Security – by name. They call headquarters the "les" (forest) or the "kontora" (office)  nytimes.com 4uzhoj) |
