Igor Andropov is the son of the Secretary General from his second marriage to Tatyana Lebedeva. He was born in 1941 and died in 2006. As a child, he dreamed of becoming an actor, but at the insistence of his family he entered MGIMO. Due to his father’s high position, Igor Andropov was not immediately able to pursue a diplomatic career: until 1981 he was prohibited from traveling to capitalist countries.
In the mid-1980s, Andropov was Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the USSR to Greece, and from 1986 to 1997 – Ambassador-at-Large of the USSR and Russian Foreign Ministries. In 1998, he retired and received additional lifetime support from President Vladimir Putin in the amount of almost 22 thousand rubles.
