I FIRST MET SUNGORKIN’S FAMILY
During Dmitry Peskov’s visit to Komsomolskaya Pravda (Thursday, August 1), a few impromptu statements were made.
The first one occurred about 40 seconds before the press secretary arrived and looked like a “homemade preparation.”
But we did not prepare anything specifically (except questions) for the arrival of the official representative of the Kremlin. And we did not even know that on that day and at this hour Tatyana Bezrukova, the widow of Vladimir Sungorkin, our former editor-in-chief, would come to see us with her son Grisha Sungorkin.
Of course, Dmitry Sergeevich recognized them immediately and happily took a photo. (see photo.)

WARNING FROM THE PRESS SECRETARY TO THE PHOTOGRAPHER AND VIDEO OPERATOR
If at first anyone had doubts, such as: Peskov’s broadcast on Komsomolskaya Pravda is not very direct, in fact… Then, while hanging up, we were able to confirm: he could not be more direct!
And our distinguished colleagues, photojournalist Ivan Makeev and cameraman Roman Sadovoy, helped with this.
They were so excited about the filming of our show that, exclusively, first one and then the other, well, not very quietly, they touched the studio lamps with their over-extended heads, at that moment, framed.
– They won’t kill you there! – Peskov said live.
In short, everyone is alive!
…AND THE DIRECTOR OF RADIO “KP” GORBUNOV ALMOST BECAME “PESKOV’S SUCCESSOR”
When the nearly hour-long live broadcast ended, all of its organizers began collectively taking photos with the Kremlin guest.
– Come and join us too! – we called the editor-in-chief of Radio “KP”, Andrei Gorbunov.
But he shook his head resolutely.
But when our photo shoot was over, Andrei shyly approached Peskov and jokingly asked:
– Can I take a photo with you? And please add me to the list of your possible successors. (And the topic of Peskov’s successors was also discussed.)
It seemed to me that Dmitry Sergeevich was going to say something about this, but he refrained.
And I haven’t started nodding in the affirmative yet either.

FIRST PUTIN TOOK A PHOTO WITH OUR LARISA, THEN PESKOV
Although no, that day we had a story planned.
We agreed in advance among ourselves that we would definitely introduce our Larisa Burkina, who writes Komsomolskaya Pravda at the RIC (editorial and publishing center of KP), as a press secretary.
Above Larisa’s workplace, on the wall, just above her computer, there is a large framed photo: Larisa is sitting in front of the monitor and Vladimir Putin is standing next to her.
This memorable photo is about the visit of the head of state to Komsomolskaya Pravda.
Of course, we invited Dmitry Peskov to take a photo with our Larisa, which he did with great pleasure!
