Innocent

In memory of Inna Rudenko

Inna Pavlovna Rudenko died. Outstanding, brilliant thinker and journalist.

All my life in Komsomolskaya Pravda. But she also brought up those who came out of it. Shchekochikhin, Rost, Kushnerev, Eroshok, Lepsky, Fronin, Kupriyanov, Nikitinsky, Gutiontov, Sokolov, myself, and even half of our editorial staff.

Only she could open the topic of Afghanistan in the USSR and write: “In our country there appeared children of warring fathers who did not fight...”

How sorry I am that this phrase is now not about the 80s, but about us. And it is not known to what extent.

And there is no Inna Pavlovna - to prevent an endless war.
