Per Wikipedia, Pyotr Nikolayevich Krasnov (Russian: Пётр Николаевич Краснов; 1869 – 1947), Also Known As Peter Krasnov, Was A Russian Military Leader, Writer And Later Nazi Collaborator. Krasnov Was Son To Lieutenant-General Nikolay Krasnov And Grandson To General Ivan Krasnov. In April–May 1902 A Series Of Articles Were Published In Russkii Invalid, The Newspaper Of The Imperial Russian Army, Containing P. N. Krasnov's Impressions Of His Trip To Mongolia, China And Japan As The East Asia Correspondent Of Russkii Invalid. In His Article "Fourteen Days In Japan", Krasnov Painted The Imperial Japanese Army In A Negative Light. His Analyzed Was Widely Criticized As Motonic But Was Read And Appreciated By The Czar. Krasnov Served As A Lieutenant General In The Imperial Russian Army During World War I And Later Led Anti-Bolshevik Forces During The Russian Civil War, Where He Served As The Ataman Of The Don Republic. Approximately 25,000 To 40,000 People Were Executed By Krasnov's White Cossacks, Which Lasted Until The Red Army Conquered The Region Following Their Victory At Tsaritsyn. After The Civil War, He Lived In Exile. During World War Ii, Krasnov Collaborated With The Germans Who Mobilized Cossack Forces To Fight Against The Soviet Union In Operation Barbarossa. Following The End Of The War, Krasnov Was Repatriated And Executed By The Soviet Authorities. His Son, Semyon Krasnov, Was A Russian White Army Soldier Who, After The Empire's Defeat In The Russian Civil War, Fled To Yugoslavia And Then To France, Arriving In Nazi Germany In 1942. After The Defeat Of Germany In World War Ii, He Was Extradited Back To The Soviet Union Along With His Father, Pyotr Krasnov. There, Both Men Were Put On Trial And Executed. As A Result Of This, Young Miguel Krasnov And His Mother, Dina Marchenko, Fled To Chile. His Grnadson Miguel Krassnoff Martchenko (Born Mikhail Semyonovich Krasnov, Russian: Михаил Семёнович Краснов; Born 1946) Is A Chilean Military Official Involved In Human Rights Violations During The Dictatorship Of General Augusto Pinochet. He Held Several High-Ranking Positions In The Pinochet Regime, Including In The Chilean Intelligence Agency, Dina. As Such, He Was Responsible For The Interrogation, Torture, And Disappearance Of Political Prisoners At The Detention Center, Villa Grimaldi. In 2006, Miguel Krassnoff Was Sentenced To 144 Years Imprisonment For Over 20 Counts Of Crimes Against Humanity.
