Air Chief Marshal Portal demanded that the British share the losses the 8AF had been taking by assuming responsibility for two of the largest and most distant targets, Pölitz and Merseburg-Leuna.
In October 1946, Asinger was deported together with 34 chemists, physicists and engineers of the Leuna-Werke to the Soviet Union to Dzerzhinsk, near Gorky.
The actual history of the city began in 1958 with a conference of the Central Committee of the SED on "Chemistry Program of the GDR", on which the settlement of labor in the vicinity of chemical sites Buna - Schkopau and Leuna was decided.
