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.

Huge thanks to Lilia for her support.

I turned to Lilia during a difficult time, when my relationship with my husband was literally hanging by a thread. We lived next to each other, but it was as if we were in different worlds. After talking with Lilia, I felt like I was awakening: I realized I needed to change how I spoke, how I listened. Gradually, the tension eased, and warmth returned to the house. Now we are a real family again. I am incredibly grateful to Lilia for her support. Overall, I highly recommend Lilia... +380638055486 +19297133433
 

MAG ZAKHAR +380954248510

Hi everyone! I want to share my story because I still can't believe it happened. Almost two years ago, I was at rock bottom. My beloved, the one I'd planned my whole life with, just left. Without explanation, without a chance to fix anything. I was devastated. I tried everything I could, but nothing helped. My friends no longer knew how to support me, and I was simply fading away. And then, having lost all hope, I came across reviews about the magician Zakhar. I contacted him. Zakhar, without asking anything, told me such things about our relationship, about her, about me, that I was shocked. He knew something no one else could. A spark of hope appeared in me, and I asked for help. And you know what? It happened! Just a few days later, my girlfriend started contacting me. At first hesitantly, then more and more. She herself didn't understand what was happening, but she said that all this time she felt like something was pulling her back to me. We met, talked, and everything returned to normal, only stronger. And then, six months later, we got married! Now we've been together for more than a year and a half, and I've never been happier. Zakhar didn't just give me back the woman I loved; he gave me back my life, my faith. I'm immensely grateful to this man for his incredible strength and help. If you find yourself in a similar situation, if your heart is broken, don't lose hope and contact Zakhar. His number is +380954248510.
 

Molfar Andriy took over our homeland.

It would have been different in another life when my friend, Natalya, took the speeches, took the children and just went. She filed for separation, and it seemed to me that my world was destroyed. I spent months not finding my place, trying to talk to her, but she was like a wall. Our children, son and daughter, also suffered. I realized this and felt hopeless. Then I decided to go wild to Andriy’s molfar. I arrived before the new one, and this man... immediately cut me to the bone. He didn’t ask me about anything, but found out what had happened, naming names and important dates. This was not just hostile, but kindly shocking. Andriy waited a moment to help, but went ahead, which would be required at any time and in my opinion. Believe in Andriy’s strength, after such a diagnosis, it was lost, and often not food, fragments of smut, so that there was a result. Prote everything was supposed to be swedishly thought out. For many years now, we have been encouraging contacts via WhatsApp at Andria +380932169225. We conducted singing rituals that were based on ancient magical traditions and gave me the benefit of my behavior. After a couple of years, Natalya started working on the phone. Just like that. Vona said that she wanted to get together. We talked, and she cried, saying that she herself didn’t understand why she had done this, so that no one would hang around her. A week later she turned home, and we began to live together. Our hundreds have become more valuable, no matter what. Molfar Andriy took over our homeland. I will forever be grateful for those who turned me away from my squad and my children. If necessary, don’t waste an hour and write to Andriy at your number. We will definitely show you how best to do it, or even detail how you can ask for help.
