[02:24 - 03:15] The Existence of Principled Officials During Yuri's Era
Just imagine, in Yuri's time, there were people in power, there were people in government bodies. I personally know a man who headed the Prosecutor's Office of the Union. And when Yuri (he worked in Rostov at that time), Yuri came to him in Rostov, he knows Yuri. Yuri, he helped him with writing the material 'Lev Prygnul' (Lion Jumped). Back then. And then this man became a human rights defender, a lawyer, and worked in the Presidium of the Moscow Helsinki Group and was on the Human Rights Council for quite a few years under the president. And his name is Yuri Artemyevich Kostanov. I have the right to name him; he is a very famous person. That is, there were decent people in power. Power does not equal an indecent person; it is not the same. And Yuri's task was to send as many decent people as possible into power.
