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

One day, a casual acquaintance mentioned knowing a powerful clairvoyant magician named Alexander, who could see the root of problems and possessed many other extraordinary abilities, helping where others couldn't. He claimed this magician had removed a curse from him, and his life had improved in a very short time. I didn't pay it much attention, but I wrote down his contact information just in case. Luckily. Just a couple of years later, I turned to Alexander with my own problem. My wife had left me and filed for divorce. I didn't understand why or what to do. It was incredibly painful. For several months, I searched for different ways to make peace with her, but nothing worked. So, I decided to message Alexander on WhatsApp at +380971792179 and asked for a consultation. I was very impressed that I didn't even have to tell him anything – Alexander saw my problem himself and explained in detail what had happened and why. And most importantly, he explained what could be done about it. I immediately asked him to help me get my wife back. Alexander agreed. Even more surprisingly, it took him no more than three weeks – the results were delivered ahead of schedule. So if you have any problems, don't hesitate to contact Alexander. I'm confident he can help even in the most challenging situations.

For a large art project, I'll buy old one-cent coins. At a 1:3 ratio (I pay 3 cents for one copper cent). At the bank, they'll change it 1:1. I need about 11,000-12,000 pieces. Only old copper cents. I'll pay in cash.
I can’t express in words how grateful I am to Varya for her help, for her kind heart and incredible gift.
I found Varya, a molfarka, on Google when I simply didn't know where to look for help. My husband left me for his mistress, and I couldn't sleep at night, crying, unable to eat or live normally. It felt like my heart was breaking, and nothing could be fixed. When I first turned to Varya, I couldn't even really express anything; the words wouldn't come. But I didn't need to. Varya saw everything herself and told me everything, as if she'd lived through those days of pain with me. Her words immediately gave me hope and strength. She performed a ritual, explained how to behave, and supported me the whole time. A few days later, I felt something had changed, and then my husband called himself... He said he missed me, that he wanted everything back. Now he's home, and our house is warm, calm, and loving again. I can't express in words how grateful I am to Varya for her help, for her kind heart, and her incredible gift. Thanks to her, I smile again and believe in miracles. HER number is +380632574828 (Viber / WhatsApp / Telegram)
