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

Feedback on relationship fortune telling – everything came true
I was looking for someone who could accurately read relationships and ended up with a very powerful clairvoyant. I'll admit right away—I was skeptical about everything, but the way she described my situation completely knocked me off my feet. No generalities. She described my partner's personality, his behavior, and the problems between us. Then she told me what would happen in a month, and that's exactly what happened. We actually met, as she said, and he admitted he wanted to get everything back together. She treated me calmly, without intimidation, and explained everything. She also does cleansings, works with energy, and helps people recover from difficult situations. Contact: +1 646 377 9379

Thank you, Lilia, for your help, support, and the strength you bring to our work! You've given me back not only my husband, but also my faith in miracles.
I want to leave a sincere review of the wonderful clairvoyant Lilia. When my husband left our family, I was devastated. We had been together for many years, and his sudden decision to leave simply knocked the wind out from under me. I tried everything: talking, advice from friends, psychologists—nothing helped. At some point, I was advised to contact Lilia. At first, I was hesitant—after all, the topic of esotericism had previously been far from me. But something inside told me to give it a try. From the first consultation, Lilia inspired confidence in me. She didn't ask unnecessary questions; she immediately told me things only I knew. She performed a cleansing, a relationship-restoration ritual, and gave several personal recommendations. A couple of weeks later, my husband started contacting me. He seemed different: calmer, as if he realized he truly wanted to be with me. Now we are back together, and our relationship has entered a new, deeper and more sincere stage. Thank you, Lilia, for your help, support, and the strength with which you work! You have given me back not only my husband, but also my faith in miracles. I will leave you her contact information: +380638055486 (WhatsApp, Viber) +19297133433

I came to Lilia broken, humiliated and having lost faith.
I came to Lilia broken, humiliated, and having lost my faith. She saw my pain immediately. She performed rituals after which it was as if my heart was restored—alive and warm. A week later, my husband stood at my door with flowers and tears in his eyes. He said he couldn't live without me. These rituals became a miracle in my life. I'll leave my contact information for anyone who really needs help (+380638055486 for WhatsApp and Viber, +19297133433 for regular calls).
