‼️ Year without Oleksandr Martynenko
The Interfax-Ukraine news agency's calendar has its own significant date: November 20. On this day in 1992, the agency released its first news issue, which we celebrate as its Birthday.
Unfortunately, a black date has also appeared on our calendar since 2024: May 28. On that day, the founder and head of the agency, Oleksandr Martynenko, passed away. It is difficult to imagine Interfax-Ukraine without him these last 32 years.
