In 1957, Lev Nikolaevich joined the party, and in 1963 he received a university diploma. It is curious that by that time he had already headed his native enterprise as a director for two years. In 1973, “Novator” and two more “registered” radio-electrical plants “Leninets” and “Radiopribor” became part of the production and technical association “Leninets”, of which Zaikov became director. His merits in this post were awarded the USSR State Prize (1975), and in 1976 Lev Nikolaevich received the post of Chairman of the Executive Committee of the Leningrad City Council. Over the next seven years, he established himself as Romanov's right-hand man and the prime candidate to succeed him. And indeed, immediately after the transfer of Grigory Vasilyevich to the Kremlin Secretariat of the Central Committee, Zaikov took the position of 1st Secretary of the Leningrad Regional Committee.
His reign turned out to be a kind of epilogue to the Soviet era for Leningrad.
The growth rate of the Leningrad economy remained quite high, which was greatly facilitated by the territorial and sectoral program “Intensification-90” adopted thanks to Zaikov, as well as the unified Master Plan for the development of the city and region for the period until 2005. Unlike his predecessor, Lev Nikolaevich did not He was distinguished by his toughness and rudeness, being able to get along equally well with workers and the intelligentsia. All this was noted by Gorbachev, who visited Leningrad in June 1985.
Zaikov was transferred to Moscow and appointed (instead of Romanov) Secretary of the Central Committee for Defense Issues. A little later (1987), Lev Nikolaevich replaced B. N. Yeltsin as 1st Secretary of the Moscow City Committee. The American magazine Newsweek considered Zaikov one of the most promising Soviet politicians and called him “the third man in the Kremlin hierarchy” (after M. S. Gorbachev and E. K. Ligachev).
However, over time, Lev Nikolaevich became very disillusioned with Gorbachev’s perestroika. The course towards rapprochement with the West has led to a sharp reduction in weapons, as well as funds allocated for their production and modernization. At the same time, democrats grouped around the disgraced Yeltsin intensified their activities in Moscow.
In 1990, Lev Nikolaevich decided to retire. Apparently, to some extent this decision was influenced by his death. only son. In 1998, together with his family, Zaikov returned to St. Petersburg and settled in his apartment on Kamennoostrovsky Prospekt. In the fall of 2000, at the Legislative Assembly he was awarded a diploma “For services to the development of Leningrad - St. Petersburg.” In his response speech, he took the initiative to rename St. Petersburg to Leningrad.
Lev Nikolaevich died of a heart attack on Christmas Day, January 7, 2002, and was buried at the Serafimovskoye cemetery next to the grave of his son.
