Сталин. Я должен сообщить, товарищи, что ввиду поступивших неопровержимых данных, касающихся членов ЦК Кадацкого и Чудова и кандидата в члены ЦК Павлуновского, причастных к преступным действиям заговорщиков, их пришлось арестовать.

Translation

An announcement by I.V. Stalin at the June 1937 Plenum of the Central Committee of the VKP(b).

(From a transcript of the plenum)

Stalin. I need to announce, comrades, that in light of the irrefutable evidence we have received regarding Central Committee members Kadatsky and Chudov and Central Committee candidate member Pavlunovsky, who were involved in the criminal actions of the conspirators, they had to be arrested. We have Komarov's relevant testimony; it will be provided to you. We will have to expel these former Central Committee members and candidate member from the Central Committee.

Voices. That's right.

Andreyev. We have a proposal to pass comrade Stalin's proposal. Who is in favor of passing this proposal? [presumably omitted section] No one. The proposal passes.

Stalin. When it comes to Piatnitsky, the review is under way. It should be completed in a few days; another questioning and a confrontation.

Andreyev. That concludes the agenda for today's plenum. This Central Committee plenum session is closed.
