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 leave my sincere review of Lilia – a clairvoyant, fortune teller, a woman with an enormous gift. Her contact information is (+380 93 266 5520 (WhatsApp); +19297133433 - regular contact). I turned to her at the most difficult moment of my life, when my loved one left me. I was in despair, no one could help, but only Lilia was able to do the impossible. She opened my eyes to the fact that we had been cursed by his mother, and carefully removed it. I felt my life gradually change, how the heaviness was lifting, how faith and hope returned. Lilia provided the strongest protection, and now love and harmony reign in our relationship. I can’t hold back my tears as I write this, because it is thanks to her that I am happy again with my loved one. With all my heart, I recommend Lilia to every woman looking for real help. She is the only one who really hears and helps.

After Lilia's rituals, the air in the house seemed to change.
After Lilia's rituals, the air in the house seemed to change. Even the walls seemed to stop pressing in. And the most incredible thing was that my husband returned without any fuss, without any demands; he simply quietly entered the house and said, "I realized that this is my home." It was like a scene from a movie, the kind you dream of experiencing in reality. And it happened. Thanks to Lilia. Her phone number is +380638055486, she also has Viber and WhatsApp, and another US number is +19297133433.
I want to leave an honest review because I spent a long time searching for a real person who could truly help me in my personal life. I turned to various “specialists”—fortune tellers, psychics, clairvoyants—but they were mostly scams or simply couldn’t cope. Through friends, I learned about a genuine clairvoyant, and she was the one who was able to help where others only promised. I don’t want to go into all the details here—it’s too personal—but I’ll give you the lowdown: she was able to bring my husband back to our family when he had already started dating another woman, and I was almost in despair. She can be reached on Viber and WhatsApp: +380638055486—that’s where I wrote when I first contacted her. She cleared the air, removed all the negativity, restored our connection, and literally reunited our hearts. If anyone is looking for real help, not empty promises, I can wholeheartedly recommend her.
