We calculate the inclusive spectra of secondaries produced in soft (minimum bias) p+Pb collisions in the framework of Quark-Gluon String Model at LHC energy, by taking into account the inelastic screening corrections (percolation effects). The role of these effects is expected to be very large at the very high energies, and they should decrease the spectra more than 2 times in the midrapidity region at sqrt(s)_(NN) = 5 TeV. The experimental data confirm such a picture, which means that the nuclear screening effects are connected with the Pomeron interaction rather than with the interactions of the produced secondary particles in the final state.
