		General Koskov is there, too, and, while not killed, he is to be flown back to Moscow "in the diplomatic bag", per Pushkin's order.
		Georgi Koskov is a rare villain who is arrested at the end of the movie instead of being killed off by Bond (though some have speculated that the line “In the diplomatic bag.” implies he is to be executed and his corpse flown home).
		Originally, the KGB general set up by Koskov was to be General Gogol, however, actor Walter Gotell was sick, unable to handle the major role; the character of Leonid Pushkin replaced Gogol, who appears briefly at the end of the film, having transferred to the Soviet diplomatic service.

	CBn Reviews 'The Living Daylights' - James Bond 007 - CommanderBond.net - James Bond At Its Best (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		General Koskov and Brad Whitaker are very believable villians who are trying to carry out a variety of operations, none of which are unrealistic as we have seen in previous films like You Only Live Twice or Moonraker.
		Whitaker's arms dealings and Koskov's fake defection and plotting behind General Pushkin is something that could very well happen in any country, and is dealt with in a very realistic way by Her Majesty's government.
		Koskov simply does not stand out as a memorable villain to me, even if he is supposedly well "under the radar" by being so sweet and caring in the beginning.

	DVD review of Living Daylights, The - DVD Town (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		The setting is toward the end of the Cold War, and the defector is General Georgi Koskov (Jeroen Krabbe), who has asked specifically that Bond be assigned to protect him against possible Russian retaliation during his escape attempt.
		Desmond Llewelyn is on hand, of course, as "Q," and Robert Brown plays "M." The film also features, as always, a new actor, John Terry, in the part of Felix Leiter, the CIA agent; and it broke in a new actress, Caroline Bliss, as Miss Moneypenny.
		Neither Koskov nor Whitaker is truly wicked in the Goldfinger or Dr. No mold; their characterizations were toned down to conform to the new, more serious Bond-movie image.

	Villains
		More seriously, though, the idea that Koskov could be a high ranking General in the Russian Army is a weak one.
		It is he who "re-captures" Koskov from MI6 at the safehouse at Blayden, disguised as a milkman.
		Koskov seems more like a bumbling fool who's in his General's job by default rather than merit.

	Mutant Reviewers from Hell do "The Living Daylights"
		Kara Milovy (Maryam d’Abo) is a great modern Bond girl, in that she’s pretty hot, smart, and artistic, and once she meets up with Bond she starts kicking ass with all the punching and firing of machine guns that entails.
		Koskov and Whitaker (Baker) are credible "real world" villains in that they don't want to take over the world like other Bond villains, but they've got a good evil scheme and the means to make it work.
		Walter Gotell, who had appeared in earlier Bond films as “nice” Russian General Gogol, was supposed to be in the place of General Pushkin but couldn’t on account of his poor health.

		Unfortunately, I don't think the film's initial audience (weaned on a generation of Roger Moore Bond films) were quite prepared for the change and I think the film would probably have been more successful if it was remade now.
		General Koskov, on British soil and savouring the luxuries of Western civilization (it's hard to believe that the Cold War was still on when this film was made), discloses a secret Soviet plan to kill "00" agents - of which the incident at Gibraltar was part of.
		Then Koskov gets kidnapped by Necros (Andreas Wisniewski), and Bond is ordered to kill the alleged instigator of the secret plan - General Leonid Pushkin (John Rhys-Davies).
