Independence through the prism of tragedy and hope
33 years have passed since the declaration of independence of Ukraine. The American newspaper "R.Reklama" has been covering the festive events all these years, including at the government level. The celebration of the 33rd anniversary of Ukraine's Independence is overshadowed. The terrible war takes lives, leaving many with severe wounds that cripple not only the body but also the soul. After the end of the war, which we all look forward to, the Ukrainian people will suffer from deep psychological trauma for a long time. On August 25, a charity concert "The Power of Ukraine" was held in New York, dedicated to the 33rd anniversary of Ukraine's Independence, organized with the aim of raising funds for Ukrainian soldiers in need of prosthetics, as well as to unite Ukrainians who have been scattered by fate all over the world. Many guests came to the concert in blue and yellow outfits, in embroidered shirts, expressing their patriotism in different ways, but equally sincerely. Assembly member Alec Brook-Krasny gave a solemn greeting, wishing Ukraine a speedy victory. American doctor Michael Fulmes, who provides charitable assistance to Ukrainians, was greeted with thunderous applause. The US Ambassador for Human Rights, Head of the Department of Diplomatic Relations for G100 Negotiations, Dr. Sima Karetnaya, a native of Ukraine, spoke vividly and inspiringly. She emphasized that New York, as a city of refuge, opens its doors to refugees. Over the past two years, many refugees from Ukraine have arrived in New York, and the city has become a new home for talented people. Ukrainian culture is a bright and unforgettable kaleidoscope: melodic songs, fiery dances, applied art, a unique school of painting by Ukrainian masters. “New York Mayor Eric Adams and Governor Kathy Hochul have approved the candidacy of Alina Grosu, which I proposed. Introducing a galaxy of outstanding diplomats, I want to note that I feel the support of Mayor Eric Adams, which is especially important for the Ukrainian refugees who have found shelter in this great city. Ukraine in 2024 will be represented by singer Alina Grosu, and I am confident that she will embody Ukrainian culture within the walls of the UN with honor and dignity.” - said Sima Karetnaya. So, let's get back to the concert. The artists on stage won the hearts of the audience, immersing them in the melody and power of the Ukrainian language. The host Vasyl Chebonenko impressed the audience. An incredible resemblance, manners, speech, humor, the audience for a moment thought that the President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky had come on stage. In an exclusive interview, I learned that he graduated from the Yaroslav Mudryi Law University in Kharkiv. He held an especially impressive auction, which included a painting of the Ukrainian flag, boxing gloves autographed by Vitali Klitschko, a violin, and Time magazine, where on the cover there was a photo of Volodymyr Zelensky - a man who bore colossal responsibility during the war. A special moment came when two Ukrainian soldiers, real heroes who received serious injuries to their lower limbs, brought in the flags of the USA and Ukraine. The anthems of both countries were played. The concert featured a symphony orchestra and a children's choir, who sang praises to the heroes of Ukraine and brings its victory closer. Footage was shown of cadets from the American Military Academy West Point applauding the Ukrainian military. The concert featured Ukrainian singer Alina Grosu, who works in the dance music and pop-rock styles. She was born in Chernivtsi, Ukraine. She has been performing on the professional stage since the age of 4. She studied at the Kyiv Academy of Circus and Variety Arts, Department of Musical Arts, and at VGIK, Department of Acting, in Moscow. In the spring of 2023, she continued her professional education in the USA at the School of Acting in Hollywood, Los Angeles. The concert was attended by: Honored Artist of Ukraine singer Lyudmila Fesenko, Honored Artist of Ukraine, Kharkiv resident Victoria Vennikova, Dan Baturin, Vasily Bondarchuk, Alexander Krivoshapko, violinist Assia Ahhatt and others. However, the terrible war continues to take lives... Marina Lagunova

I turned to clairvoyant Lilia at a time when it seemed like our relationship was finally falling apart. There was too much unspoken communication, resentment, and silence in the house. I didn't know how to restore the warmth that once existed between us. Lilia helped me look at the situation differently—understand my feelings, listen to my partner, and stop fighting when gentleness was needed. After her consultation, I began to change my attitude, and it was as if the atmosphere in our family gradually began to change. We began talking more, listening more attentively, looking for compromises rather than reasons to argue. Today, I feel that love is returning to our home. We spend time together again, laugh, and make plans. I am grateful to Lilia for her support and advice, which helped me strengthen our relationship and restore harmony. Her phone number is +380638055486, she also has Viber and WhatsApp, and another US number is +19297133433.
I still can't hold back my tears when I recall the day I turned to Varya, a molfarka. My family was crumbling before my eyes: my husband had left me for another woman, there were constant arguments at home, and despair and emptiness filled my soul. It seemed there was no hope left. But Varya saw everything for herself, and without asking any questions, she explained my situation as if she'd known us all her life. She pointed out the causes of our problems, spoke about the negativity that surrounded our family, and offered to help. After her work, I felt an incredible relief. It was as if a heavy burden had lifted from my shoulders. Peace, warmth, and harmony returned to the house. The most amazing thing happened later: just seven days later, my husband returned home on his own, having finally ended his relationship with his mistress. He became a different person—attentive, caring, and sincere. I am infinitely grateful to Varya for her help, support, and wisdom. She gave me back not only my husband, but also my faith in happiness, love, and a family future. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone who finds themselves in a difficult life situation and has lost hope. Thank you, Varya, for a true miracle! Tel. +380632574828 Viber/WhatsApp
I hesitated for a long time to write this review, but my gratitude is stronger. When my husband left me after 18 years of marriage, it was as if my world had collapsed. I stopped eating, sleeping, and enjoying life. On a friend's advice, I turned to Marfa. She immediately saw what I hadn't told anyone. After talking with her, I felt hope. Gradually, my husband began to contact me, showed interest in the children, and then admitted he had made a mistake. Today, we are living together again. Every day I thank fate for meeting Marfa. Her number is +380931150260 Viber / WhatsApp
Magician Zakhar saved my family when I had no hope left for my wife's return. We'd been through a lot during our eight years of marriage, but our mutual feelings and commitment to understanding each other had always been our strength as a couple. Until one time. A time that almost became our family's last. It all started when misunderstandings had been building up for two or three months before our separation. There was tension and misunderstandings, but nothing critical. Then, one evening, I saw before me what felt like a stranger, not my beloved, looking at me with empty, cold, and indifferent eyes. She was completely emotionless and simply said she was leaving. She packed her things, called a taxi, and ran up the stairs without waiting for the elevator. As she left, she added that she wouldn't talk to me about anything except divorce. I was left alone in the apartment, surrounded by deafening silence. Then followed agonizing weeks of trying to write, call, and somehow communicate and find common ground. But she wouldn't communicate and only dryly said that everything was finally decided—only divorce. No argument worked. I was literally devastated and didn't know what to do. Feeling powerless, I began looking for unconventional solutions. I decided to turn to magic, to at least understand what had happened and not lose the chance to save my family. That's how I found the magician Zakhar's number +380954248510 and arranged for him to look into my situation and what could be done. I didn't have to tell him anything. Zakhar saw everything himself and described in detail what happened and how. He even described the scene of the breakup. It was as if he was standing there at that moment. He explained the options, and I asked him to help me. The work lasted about a month in total. Zakhar kept me updated on the process and gave me instructions on what would happen literally day by day. How happy I was when my wife called me for the first time, without any reason, and asked how I was doing! Even though it was a short conversation, my hopes soared. And then, one evening, closer to the time I'd agreed upon with Zakhar, what I'd been waiting for happened. Returning home, I saw the light in our apartment and my beloved's shadow on the curtains. She was watering the flowers on the windowsill. My heart literally started pounding, and I couldn't believe my happiness! I instantly flew to the apartment, started opening the door, and my wife met me at the threshold. Her eyes were full of love and warmth, tears and words about how she'd missed me terribly, how she'd thought about me, and how she realized she couldn't give up... It literally lifted me to seventh heaven! For a couple of weeks afterward, my wife and I occasionally discussed certain things to better understand each other and avoid hurting each other in the future. But the main thing was that my beloved was already there. Several years have passed since then, and my wife and I have not lost our understanding. I still communicate with Zakhar periodically and sometimes contact him about business matters.
