Demonstration on Brighton Beach: when politics divides destinies
On May 9, for many years in a row, New Yorkers gathered on Brighton Beach to remember their relatives and heroes who died during World War II. And on May 9, 2024, when the holiday began to be called the Day of Remembrance and Sorrow, the day was overshadowed by a provocative demonstration that caused a storm of emotions among Russian-speaking and Ukrainian-speaking residents of the area. The events of recent years related to the war in Ukraine have left a deep imprint in the hearts of many, especially those who have roots in both Russia and Ukraine. Ukrainians fled the war, seeking to protect their lives and the future of their families. Russian-speaking residents who find themselves outside of Russia are forced to face circumstances related to their country's participation in the conflict. In this context, holding a demonstration with a red flag, which featured a hammer and sickle, in Brighton, where there is a significant number of Russian-speaking and Ukrainian-speaking residents, and it is not surprising that Ukrainians stood in Brighton, next to CHASE Bank, with placards and waited for the Russian-speaking delegation. For Ukrainians, and not only others, the red flag is a symbol reminiscent of the terrible consequences of the war in their homeland, while for Russian speakers it can evoke painful memories of the war that divided peoples. Many believe that holding such events on such a day and in such an area of New York only causes pain and discord among residents. However, despite this incident, May 9 remains a symbol of unity and memory, when every family, be it Ukrainian, Russian or any other, remembers its heroes, paying tribute to those who fell in the fight for freedom and peace, stopping fascism. I hope that in the future, the people of Brighton Beach will be able to come together again in peace and harmony, regardless of political differences. Marina Lagunova

I want to share my story with you, I see how everyone writes here and how hard it is for everyone. I understand you girls, I went through a period in my life when I was broken, this is really my story. I am a grown woman, I lived with my husband for 18 years, got on our feet together, built a house, opened a business, we started everything from scratch together. We achieved good results in our fields, a good education, we had a loving relationship. We were not only husband and wife, but also friends for life. Everything in my life began to change, my husband suddenly became cold, aggressive, did not listen to me at all, and only negativity emanated from him. I did not understand what was happening, talking to him led nowhere. Just one day he told me, we are getting a divorce, I am leaving for another and that’s it! To say that I was shocked is to say nothing, having known him for many years. Everything we had had to be divided, everything I had invested my best years in, he had to give her to this woman, half of our business. Many tears, visits to psychologists, nothing helped, we divorced, it was a long and unpleasant process. Understanding and watching how he took her across the seas at my expense. It was hell for me. But until I decided to turn to a fortune teller, I spent a very long time looking for a worthy specialist. On my way, I met Evdokia! We spoke on the phone, I called on Telegram, well, I had no other contacts. What I liked was that I didn’t ask a single question right away, I just sent a photo and that’s it. She herself began to tell me everything, I just kept silent and listened. I was very pleasantly surprised, she spoke for 10 minutes and I listened. And I understood that she saw my life and my soul completely. In the end, I simply said, "I urgently need your help." She said, "Do what I tell you and everything will be fine." She told me he was taken from his family for money. I realized that I wanted to fight for my family. I felt that she would help me! The point of writing this story is that you shouldn't give up. We build our own happiness. Don't stop looking for someone who can help you. I recommend Evdokia, I'll leave her number: 380933891982. Telegram. You should feel whether a specialist will help you or not.
Varya is a truly bright person, whom fate sent to me at the darkest moment of my life.
When my husband left me for another woman, my world collapsed. I didn't eat, I didn't sleep, I lived in a fog... Everything we'd built over the years was destroyed in an instant. I prayed, I cried, I asked fate for a sign—and apparently for good reason: fate led me to the molfarka Varya. From our first conversation, I felt extraordinary warmth and strength from her. Varya said that everything can be restored if the love is true, and she suggested performing rituals to cleanse the soul and restore the connection between me and my husband. I did everything as she said: I lit candles, read the words, filled my heart with faith and love. And a miracle happened. Just a few weeks later, my husband called. Then he came. We talked for a long time, both crying... He said he realized where his home is and that he wanted to start over. Now we are together, as if we've found a second wind in our relationship. I am infinitely grateful to the molfarka Varya! Thanks to her strength, wisdom, and kindness, my family is back together, laughter and love resonate in our home. Varya is a true lighthearted person, sent to me by fate at the darkest moment of my life. Her number is +380632574828 (Viber / WhatsApp / Telegram)
