Leningradsky ((ロシア語:Ленингра́дский)) is an urban locality (an urban-type settlement) in Iultinsky District of Chukotka Autonomous Okrug, Russia, about west of Mys Shmidta. Population: ==History== The settlement was founded in order to provide accommodation for the workers and administrators of the nearby gold mines. When it was decided that the mines were no longer economically viable, the settlement was slated to be officially liquidated in 1998,〔(Leningradsky ) - www.dead-cities.ru 〕 a few years after it was decided to liquidate the neighbouring settlement of Polyarny,〔Постановление Правительства РФ от 24 мая 1995 г. N 518 О мерах социальной защиты населения поселка Полярный Шмидтовского района Чукотского автономного округа, связанной с ликвидацией поселка и переходом Полярнинского горно-обогатительного комбината на новую технологию добычи золота. (On measures for the social protection of the population of Polyarny, Shmidtovsky District of Chukotka Autonomous Okrug, associated with the elimination of the village, the Polyarninskogo ore-dressing and processing enterprise and on new technology of extracting gold).〕 another settlement established purely to exploit the mineral wealth of the area. Once the mines were declared unprofitable and that there was no possibility of developing any other form of economy in 1999 and the settlement was closed along with a number of others in Chukotka.〔(Постановление Правительства РФ от 2 февраля 1998 г. N 128 ''О мерах социальной защиты населения ликвидируемых поселков золотодобытчиков в Чукотском автономном округe'' ) (''Russian Federation Government resolution dated February 2, 1998 No. 128 on measures of social protection of the population of liquidating estates gold miners in the Chukotka Autonomous Okrug "Russian Federation Government resolution dated February 2, 1998 No. 128 on measures of social protection of the population of liquidating estates gold miners in the Chukotka Autonomous Okrug'').〕 The Russian government guaranteed funds to transport non-working pensioners and the unemployed in liquidated settlements including Leningradsky from Chukotka to other parts of Russia.〔 The Ministry of railways was obliged to lease containers for the transportation of the migrants' goods to the Chukotkan administration and ensure that they were delivered to the various settlements.〔 The population table below shows the impact on the settlement as a result of the closure of the mines. The population was moved to other regions within the country however, due to a lack of suitable housing in many of these regions there was still a small population living in the settlement in 2000, hoping to become eligible for housing subsidy.〔 In 2005, there was a rebellion by a group of soldiers in the region. Drunk and bored with their duties in the far north, they took weapons and vodka and went to Leningradsky, seized the local store there and began to have a party, drinking and firing shots into the air. The police and FSB were notified and a seven hour battle took place with fatalities on both sides before the rebellion was quashed.〔(Newspaper report on soldiers' rebellion ) 〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Leningradsky, Chukotka Autonomous Okrug」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
