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

When the soul finds no peace, when the heart is gripped by anxiety and pain, it's a sign that you need to seek answers. Clairvoyant Lilia helps where reason is powerless and where hope fades with each passing day. Through Tarot cards and the energy of photography, I see the truth that cannot be hidden. Even an old photograph bears the imprint of fate—from it, I can tell what's happening to a person, whether they're alive, whether they love you, whether they remember you, what they're feeling, and what intentions they're hiding. I sense lies, betrayal, estrangement, rivalry, deception—and I can reveal the truth to you, no matter how difficult it may be. If there's a wall of silence between you, if you feel your strength ebbing and your life losing meaning, I will help restore harmony. I will determine whether there is a curse, hex, love spell, or hex, who cast it, and when, and I will cleanse you—removing negativity, restoring energy, aligning your chakras, and providing powerful protection. After the ritual, you'll feel lightness, calm, and a desire to live and believe again. Tarot cards don't lie—they'll show you what lies ahead: whether love is worth fighting for, whether to trust someone, what your path will be, and where the twist of fate is that could change everything. I don't promise miracles—I help create them, because I'm born with power, and through it, I bring light, hope, and love back to people. Clairvoyant Lily. Tarot reading. Photo diagnostics. Negativity removal. I'll help you regain what seemed lost forever. Contacts: +380638055486 (WhatsApp, Viber) +19297133433
Oh, girls, if you only knew what I went through! In the fashion world, the glitz and glamour often hide such loneliness, such uncertainty in my personal life. It seems there are so many men around, but none of them are right... I was completely desperate, thinking I'd keep swapping one man for another, until I turned to Zakhar for help. I'd heard about him from reliable sources, but, frankly, I hesitated for a long time. And from our first conversation, I realized this man wasn't like other fortune tellers or magicians. He didn't promise mountains of gold; he saw my soul, my fears, my true desires, and many details no one else could know. Zakhar pinpointed the root causes of my personal problems and offered concrete solutions. His approach was not just professional but also deeply personal. He focused on activating my inner potential and removing the barriers that were preventing me from finding the right partner. The results were immediate. Soon after we began working together, I met a man with whom I not only built a strong and happy relationship but also started a family. My husband is reliable, kind, and understanding; with him, I feel truly loved and protected. If you, like me, are tired of disappointments and are looking for true happiness, I highly recommend contacting Zakhar. He's not just a magician, he's a true wizard who restored my faith in love and gave me a true fairy tale! Write or call Zakhar at +380954248510
