A new inflationary universe scenario is suggested, which is free from the shortcomings of such a previously suggested scenario. The new scenario provides a possible solution of the horizon, flatness, homogeneity and isotropy problems in cosmology, and also a solution of the primordial monopole problem in grand unified theories.
