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.

I never thought I'd write something like this, but perhaps my review will help others in similar situations. A year ago, my husband left our family. After 16 years of marriage, he simply packed his bags and said he was tired. I was beside myself, crying at night, and didn't know how to move on. I searched for advice online and read forums, but it was all to no avail. One day, in despair, I simply Googled "how to get my husband back." Among the many links, I found the page of the clairvoyant Lilia. I don't know why, but her photo and words inspired confidence in me. I wrote to her, and within the first few minutes of our conversation, I realized she was an extraordinary person. Lilia immediately told me what no one else could have known: she described my husband's character, his current state, and even the woman he left me for. She explained that an energy cleansing and a ritual to restore his love were needed. I agreed, because I had nothing left to lose. A few days later, I felt a change: the anxiety subsided, and a sense of inner peace appeared. A week later, my husband called. We just talked at first, then he came home, apologized, and said he didn't understand why he left. Now we're together, as if all the bad things were just a bad dream. I'm infinitely grateful to Lilia for her help and support. If it weren't for her, my family would have fallen apart completely. Now I know for sure that miracles happen; the main thing is to let them into your life in time. Here are her contacts: +380638055486 (her WhatsApp, Viber) +19297133433 (USA)
 

Lilya is a person who knows how to restore not only loved ones, but also faith in oneself.

I was losing heart. I didn't believe I'd ever hear his keys in the lock. But Lilya asked me to at least try to trust him—and I did. Three days passed. THREE days, and I heard a knock on the door. He was standing there with a bouquet, tear-stained, and said, "I don't know why, but I kept thinking about you. I want to go home." We stood there, hugging like children, and I sobbed, not believing it was true. Lilya is a person who knows how to bring back not only loved ones, but also faith in yourself.

Friends recommended her to me, and, frankly, I was skeptical. But what happened next... is hard to describe in words. From the very first minutes, she began to say things that simply took my breath away. So accurately, so deeply, as if she sees not only the events, but the very essence of what is happening. The past, the present... and even where it is all leading. It wasn't just fortune-telling; it felt like you were being completely read. She doesn't just talk, she helps. She gives understanding, pulls you out of the most difficult situations, restores faith when it is already gone. After talking with her, real changes began to happen in my life. I still can't explain it logically, but the fact remains... it became easier, answers appeared, I found support. She literally saved me and my family. And for this, I will always be grateful. There are almost no people like her left... strong, precise, with vast experience. I'm not the only one who's proven this. If you're looking for help... this might be the chance you can't miss.

Matrona didn’t just help me get my husband back... she saved my family and my heart.

I no longer believed that I would ever be happy again... My family was crumbling before my eyes, my husband left, and with him, it was as if my whole life had gone. Sleepless nights, tears, despair... I simply didn't know how to live on. At that moment, when everything inside me died, fate brought me to the clairvoyant Matrona. She didn't even ask unnecessary questions... she saw everything herself and told me so that my skin crawled. She described my pain, my experiences, and the reasons why my husband left, as if she had lived it with me. After talking with her, I felt hope for the first time in a long time. Very little time passed, and what I had prayed for every night happened... my husband returned to our family. He returned on his own, with repentance, with words of love. I cried with happiness, because I had already lost faith in miracles. Matrona didn't just help me get my husband back... she saved my family and my heart. I will never forget her help. I bow deeply to her for her gift, support, and for giving me back the meaning of life. Her number is +380630228999 Viber/WhatsApp
