Summary/Abstract |
It is an exceptional thing when a person lives for a hundred years. And Dmitry Fyodorovich's whole life, a bright and highly-charged pageant of events and activities, which has spanned a century, has been exceptional.
Right after the war, engineer Safonov was recruited into the diplomatic service. He did not have to wait long to find himself in the thick of things. In 1946, he, along with his family, went to work at the UN Secretariat as a foreign civil servant. Everything was new, unfamiliar, for the first time. And not only for him and his family: the life of a vast international structure was being formed and organized.
