Condolences over the death of Alexander Maslyakov

The message reads, in part:
“Alexander Maslyakov has passed away. He had great, multifaceted talent,
and was one of those passionate professionals dedicated to their work and calling who personify our television and define its image. Of course, his name
is inextricably linked with the Club of the Funny and Inventive People (KVN).
In many ways, it is thanks to Alexander Maslyakov that KVN became a unique
phenomenon in Russian culture, united gifted youth, and earned nationwide
popularity.”
Alexander Maslyakov passed away at the age of 82.
