On Thursday, December 7, information appeared in the feeds of some news agencies that the People’s Artist of the USSR, composer Alexandra Pakhmutova, was hospitalized in Moscow. There was even a diagnosis: “94-year-old Alexandra Nikolaevna has suffered a heart attack.”
In the sanatorium of the Office of the President of Russia “Snegiri” near Moscow, where Pakhmutova likes to relax, this information was denied.
They literally told me the following:
– When alarming messages appeared, we called Alexandra Nikolaevna at home to find out if she would come to see us next weekend. She said that she was going to do it, that she felt fine and that she had not gone to the doctor. And so far there is no such need, because in “Snegiri” there is healing air.
(I can confirm this is true: I vacationed there a couple of times during the winter.)
And in the sanatorium they also realized: “We are also waiting for Alexandra Nikolaevna to visit us during the New Year holidays.”
I will add on my own: this information deserves absolute trust. My sources have never let me down yet.
By the way, in the leadership of “Snegiri” there are former officials of the Komsomol Central Committee. Apparently, that’s also why Pajmutova feels at home there.
In “Snegiri” there is also the “residence” of the leader of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation Gennady Zyuganov – Gennady Andreevich has been living there permanently for several years…
