A small thin woman with a bundle in her hands entered the camera, and I recognized Yevgenia Solomonovna Kogan, the secretary of the Moscow City Party Committee, whom I met every day as secretary of the district committee. She began to beg me: “Dear Ksenia, I ask you, as the best friend, as the best comrade, do not sign slander. It's terrible, but I could not stand the torment and signed. It's all over now. I was led to your cell by accident. In the morning, I will probably be sentenced. ”

According to the historian Yu. G. Felshtinsky , the massacre of relatives, usual for " family members of a traitor to the Motherland " indirectly confirms the version of Kuybyshev’s poisoning by order of Stalin.
