shaleka and to say, the ukrainian language was popular for me even before it was cool. it seems to me that uh, this, uh, this, this is a phenomenon, just the discovery by ukrainians of such a strange concept as self-respect, when we begin to understand that everything we do is, it is cool, or it is cool. simply because we like it and it changes us. back in the 1920s , there were more than 900,000 inhabitants of the kuban for whom ukrainian was their mother tongue , and this is more than half of the region's population. 150 ukrainian schools worked. chornomorets and kuban newspapers were published in ukrainian. there were many ukrainian

amateur theaters and ensembles operating in the region, now there is no ukrainian school, and only four out of every hundred kubans describe themselves as ukrainians. i realize now that it wasn't quite a transition for me, it was actually a return to my native land, just a homecoming. it really became easier for me, even though there were these, i don't know, barriers, social, people with whom you used to communicate in russian, it's supposedly inconvenient, but in fact, psychologically and emotionally and mentally, it became much easier for me. there is another moment, a story... my name is

marichka, this is my unbreakable name, which i use everywhere now, but in childhood and adolescence, no one called me that, except for my mother, er, in i myself am now speechless, i can’t say that i was masha or something, but it was like it was more mainstream and trendy and normal, and in fact i always... felt uncomfortable when i met new people people, i never knew how to introduce myself, because, well, to say marichka, it didn't seem normal at the time, masha wasn't really close to me, and when i actually realized these things and understood that my birth name is marichka, and that's normal, and it's cool, it became much easier for me to live, it was also an important stage in my life, which is actually connected with... well, with the language

issue, the language is the same, well, i think that we were all destined to speak ukrainian, and what about those who are here, and when you come back to it , this is some type, this is another such puzzle in the internal consensus, well, that is, you and me i didn't switch to ukrainian, i returned home, that's all, well, i just walked around a little bit.

congratulations, in russia the parade is a traditional competition, but this year it seems that even the weather shows them that they are doing something wrong, that's basically how the snowfall started in moscow during the inauguration. putin on may 7, so all these days, they lasted, and not only in moscow. russian regions in general are currently experiencing an arctic invasion, frost has covered 85 territories of the european part of the country. in moscow suburbs at night in general it was minus 6. in the urals - snowfalls, and snowdrifts in places up to half a meter behind the towers. well, the parade itself was also accompanied by snow. they all snowed so little.

it was snowing there for a while, and in principle , the weather must be whispering something to them, because i don't remember it snowing in may. and that this could happen on may 9, but this time it is exactly like that, judging by everything there, they have both snow and floods at the same time, well, there are also traditional fires in russia, all this at the same time, and you can see all this, so coincides somehow with their sacred and some such holidays, then there is an inauguration, then a battle of victory. well , actually, they themselves talk about their weather somehow so sadly. in moscow , it snowed heavily for the second day in a row, it got dark, the wind picked up, a blizzard started, and the lawns froze. however, everything ended

just as quickly, and now it is sunny in the capital, but as before, it is abnormally cold. today it is no more than 7°, and the situation will not change in the coming days. freezing at night... and down to minus 6. warming is promised only until the middle of the month and up to 20° above zero until may 15. well, not only with the weather, of course, they didn't do well there, they didn't do well in principle and with the advice as well, because very, very few guests came to putin. literally, the meetings of eurases, several leaders, kazakhstan, uzbekistan, and tajikistan remained there. moreover, not even everyone who came stayed, well, the armenian leader, for example, left, and in order to somehow create mass, russia wrote out the president of guinea-bissau, and how did she do it, and she is 26.7 miles away

wrote off millions of dollars in debt to guinea bissau, and thanks to this, in principle, the president of this country came to stand in the parade together with putin, well, in general, it had an appearance. a little, i would say, pitiful, because to talk about some great victory, when almost no one came and no one stands there together, does not celebrate it, well, this is a big breakthrough, because even 10 years ago it was not like that at all, and there were many more guests, from this time, you see, it is quite sad in this regard, but in their own way, they also congratulated ukraine, well, more precisely, they ... congratulated traditionally, as they recently greeted ukraine with strikes on the energy system. the russian air force launched a new massive group strike with the kinzhal air-ballistic hypersonic complex, as well as the geran uav, against the objects and

enterprises of the military-industrial complex of ukraine. explosions occurred in vinnytsia, dnipropetrovsk, lviv, ivano-frankivsk, poltava, and kyiv regions. a rocket attack was also carried out on a target in dobrotvor, where the tets is located. they also write about a series of explosions in kyiv, arrivals were also recorded in the ladyzhinsky tes district, which is near vinnytsia dnipropetrovsk area of ​​blows inflicted along the middle dniprovska hes, in general for a blow. russia was informed that the objectives of the strike had been achieved. and what

is characteristic, not a single military purpose, i.e., all that he listed was gas, thermal power, gas storage, i.e. exclusively. objects of civil infrastructure, so they celebrate the victory over, as they say, nazism, and how is it different, they are from the nazis, it is difficult to find a difference, i would say, it is impossible to find a difference in this situation at all, and here is what is interesting, what is the impression that russian propagandists in fact, the most disappointing thing is that other countries are not satisfied. dancing around this , they still talk about the victory in the second world war, as well as the war itself, as in principle, well, tragic in general such a thing and about a tragic moment in the history

of mankind, and this is how it is perceived precisely as a tragedy, and not as a holiday, they, well, somehow they are particularly outraged, look. on the eve of may 9, europe and ukraine continue to go crazy. in latvia, it is now not possible to put carnations, even to the place where the monument to soviet soldiers is now behind... this threatens to six years in prison. the reason is that may 9 has been declared a day of mourning in latvia: all mass festive entertainment events are prohibited. on may 8-9 , fireworks will also not be allowed, while gatherings and processions are allowed to honor the memory of the victims of hostilities and to condemn russian aggression . these symbols are associated with the russian army, so they are... forbidden to be displayed in public, the same was done in estonia, in this small but very russophobic republic.

on may 9, it was also forbidden to hold meetings, processions and any symbols related to russia. it is worth noting that there were never such restrictions for nazi campaigns, and zelenskyy continues to fight common sense, at the same time, against everything that can in any way remind of the soviet past. he has already turned may 9 into europe day in ukraine. instead of victory day, ukrainians celebrate the day of remembrance and reconciliation. the main message of this so-called holiday is that it was the anti-hitler coalition, not the ussr, that won the second world war. although only in the 44th year was the second front opened, when the fate of the war was decided, but the western ukrainian doctrine interprets those historical events in its own way and offers everyone to reconcile, that is, the descendants of the millions killed and those who died.

of memory and reconciliation, on the one hand, and on the other hand, it turns out that now in russia it is, well , some kind of no, well, directly, i don't know, it is probably a case of the defendant to say that the anti-hitler coalition won. and not only the soviet union, well, that is, people have such an impression that they have already forgotten even what they said literally, well, i don't know, 3-5 years ago, even when they celebrated together with all the members of the anti-hitler coalition, now it turns out that all this was as if it did not happen, and they talk about the fact that they won on their own, well, this is a long-known story that dates back to the soviet union, here they are now they returned to it and... and what is characteristic is that this is not only what propagandists actually say

on the air, this is the official version of history, but putin signed such a law, you know, one of the first laws in his fifth term, and this the law on history, the so-called teaching of historical memory, probably all the things will be there, in particular. that now it was the soviet union alone that won, and putin himself at the parade not only threatened the world with war, but also told again, just like this propagandist, that the soviet union won on its own. russia will do everything to prevent a global collision. but at the same time, we will not allow anyone to threaten us, our strategic forces are always on

alert. the west would like to forget the lessons of the second world war. and we remember that the fate of humanity was decided in grandiose battles near moscow and leningrad, rzhev, stalingrad, kursk and kharkov. near minsk, smolensk and kyiv. the soviet union, all the republics of the former soviet union fought the nazis almost single-handedly. at that time, almost all of europe worked for the military power of the wehrmacht. well, this is actually a historical memory. struck a chord with the russians, because let's look again, this is a may 1

, 41 parade in moscow, here it is, this parade, may 1, 41, and in this parade, who it is attended by, it turns out, officers of the wehrmacht, the same german, nazi, with whom the soviet union will fight literally in a couple of months, they are standing calmly here, you see, walking in the parade. they march there together with the soviet troops, greet the soviet military commanders, at the moment when europe is already at war with... the german army for the second year, at the moment when london is being bombed, at the moment when england is waging a war in general, that is germans and nazis celebrate this moment together, that is, this is the story, and now they are telling how the second front was opened, the second front was opened in

1939, and it has been going on since 1939, this is russia, or rather the soviets. the union entered the war only when they were attacked in the year 41, and before that they attacked other countries, in the year 39 they attacked finland, also for some reason, for some good reason, for such a good miracle, they suddenly decided to go to war, then a part of poland was invaded, and all this was done by the soviet union, and it should not be surprising that no one was in a hurry for a while to the help of the soviet union, because... it was unclear there, actually two dictators clashed, who were trying to find out something between themselves, all nations, yes, they are simply victims of this whole history, and now, now, in this clash of two dictators, the russians they are trying to export their papidebesia around the world, and here they are

, well, you know, in the most disgusting forms, because... arrange dances, songs, some, here, dress up in all incomprehensible forms that have nothing to do with them , well, here, for example, in frankfurt, the russians climbed there with with russian flags. it should be mentioned, by the way, that under this russian tricolor in the second world war, in general , vlasivites fought on the side of the nazis, just like the germans, that is, there was such a russian volunteer army that fought on the side of the nazis. and this is their symbolism. the russian tricolor, st. george's ribbon, all of these are actually theirs. and well, this too, well, that is, such, you know, wild, absolutely wild. well, actually, this immortal regiment that they conduct. this is also another such export variant of what they try in other countries,

to promote yourself, now, your war, this, now, as something that... is as if a continuation of that struggle, but it is not so, and it is not surprising that in a number of countries it is simply prohibited all this and pobedebesya and all this, well, this is the abomination of the parade of the dressed. meanwhile, russian television talks about how they are trying to export their militarism to... other countries under the guise of celebrating the victory over nazism. well, let's go. the immortal regiment campaign covered all countries and continents. they have already walked the streets of novaya with portraits of their heroes zealand, vietnam, argentina, india, the united states of america. in turkey, the procession

took place on the territory of the russian embassy in ankara. 600 people took part in it. participants carried the main symbol. victories, a huge st. george's ribbon. in madrid , the event took place for the ninth time to the songs of the war years and the smiles of passers-by, the participants marched to one of the main squares of the spanish capital. in our country this year there will be no traditional procession with portraits of heroes, but there are many alternative options. and why won't there be a walk with grandfathers in russia this year? sticks well, for one reason only, because those russians who... died in this war can suddenly be put on sticks, and then it will turn out that there are somehow too many of them, and even more than grandfathers can be gathered there suddenly by chance, that is why this year grandfathers on sticks are only for export, there are no grandfathers on sticks in russia itself, but luckily this will not happen in ukraine either, there are isolated cases when

some other bigots come there, well, in kyiv , for example, women came dressed with... carnations to the monument to the unknown soldier, and it also looked as disgusting as their cries that they have the right to cling to other people's awards, wear someone else's uniform and, in general, organize this incomprehensible coven. we are registered by the ministry of justice of ukraine, an organization with the right to wear uniforms and awards. i don't know, show me, someone bans a pilot. what wildness? i repeat. we are vso, the all-ukrainian union of officers, an organization registered in ukraine. we got victory, you were not yet in the world, you were not in the world when our parents defeated the fascists, you know, you walk here

thanks to the fact that 30 million people were defeated, well , there is a question whether these aunts were in the world, most likely they were not there either and they obviously had nothing to do with the victory of their parents and grandfathers there. they don't have anyone, that's why they can't wear it all, but here it's a little different story as well, because they simply came to ban symbols in ukraine, in ukraine the symbols of both nazism and soviet symbols are banned, because they are one and the same exactly, why is it the same thing, here i want remind you of the words of the great soviet russian writer viktor astafiev, who described it beautifully, and told about his attitude in general, both to nazism and to the soviet government. let's listen, because it never, you know, never

hurts to listen to someone who actually fought in world war ii, who actually saw the horrors of this world war ii, who described those horrors of world war ii, and who really, unlike all these dressed aunts, has the right. wear orders, a little more precisely, and can really tell what it is was, how it was, and how it should be treated. in every russian family, hitler killed someone, my grandfather was killed, yours was killed, only we had our own murderers, no matter where they were, they exterminated so much of their people , unlike hitler, that is, the fascists are scarier, how can those fascists be, what is the difference, who... among them killed more, if the shoes there saved germany, that the government had fascism for 12 years, and germany was only lucky because it had this comrade for only 12 years, and we are the 70th,

so after 70 we cannot not get up and nothing to fix, and why did i mention this, and because, as you know, literally a week ago, the whole of russia celebrated the centenary of viktor astafiev, and they are also terrible. were proud that such a great russian writer and such a great russian person, but you know, even defining this, they somehow managed to omit what views astafiev had on russia, on stalinism, and on what, in general, they are reviving now , but as a result, they even, well , made this great man, well, something so incredible and somehow... incredibly vulgar they tried to attract all this to themselves, but let's just see a small plot of this kind

from what literally, well, last week he told, told in kiselyov's program about the centenarian astafiev: childhood without parents, the front, injuries, working youth and life in the siberian hinterland in russia celebrates 100 years since... the family was out and about, everyone was out, in the morning my mother came out, they asked who was baptized, no one could remember, and they had to baptize him a second time. astafyev's birthday in ovsyanka is a national event festive, noisy, fiery, not dry, of course. you will involuntarily remember how the baby vitya was baptized. the village has changed, but the house has been preserved. now the astafiev national center. i asked how long the exposure was made. i was told that they came in january, and now they are opening on may 1. well, that is, they decided

to privatize astafiev very quickly, but somehow they forgot how astafiev felt about such wars and how they fought in general, what he said about it, and how he believed, well, in fact, that they fought criminally in the second world war the world war, which for some reason does not say, not putin. neither those people who are now talking about the fact that this is the great russian writer viktor astafiev, nor all these propagandists who are trying to use him, talking about the fish there, about some intoxicants, and not about what really made up the world the glory of this writer, because he really talked about how they fought in the second world war, and what blood it all cost, and what is not worth, i guess, on the bones, when we talk about the second world war, let's listen, again, that he talked about this, about how they fought, did

the germans really fight better than... we russians are better in every way, and the people do not know the truth, only god knows the whole truth about our war, it is so criminal, it is so bloody , so comprehensive, so much of everything went into it, we shot a million people at the front, who can still afford it, who can, it can be afforded by people who carried out collectivization, shooting left and right, people who are 12 or so millions ... are kept behind bars and the same number protect them, inventing all kinds of crimes for them. we they dug so hard and worked so hard that in july we could get a gymnast and a spoon like that, which means we worked for five or ten people, because there were these faces, exterminating our people, they were being exterminated. and actually, this is exactly what the modern russian government, putin, and the russians themselves are doing right now. in the same

way, the war is simply killing a bunch of people because they want to take over ukraine, there is no other goal there, only to grab something extra, and again exactly like that, they are killing these russians in droves in this war, they have already been killed, well more than the russian army was when it invaded ukraine in february 22, already killed more russians during that time. and you know, well, it is also extremely disgusting that at the same time they are telling that no, they were forced to this war, no, they were not forced, and it is extremely disgusting how they are now pulling out all these songs again, about the desired russian wars, now i want to show you the last ones too, because it's, you know, it's kind of straight , well, kind of cynical, and well, i just don't know

, it's disgusting at all. what they do when these warmongers, who glorify war, who feed off this war, who live on war, who in general, nobody needs them except that russia is fighting, that is, if russia stops fighting tomorrow, all these people are simply stupidly useless to anyone, because they don't know anything else, except to lie about the war, so they organized singing there, and it's even more disgusting that they involved not only ukrainian collaborators in the occupied territories. they are employed by this vile russian patriarchate, who are there together in melitopol, they put children there, ukrainian children, now they are also trying to rewire the children under occupation as much as possible and involve them in all these actions, and all this, you know, is so disgusting that when they sing about the russian war , then it's clear that they

're singing about how they are. want this war, how they dream about it, how they directly enjoy it, it can be felt in the way they do it, let's see if they want russian , do they want russian, do they want russian russians, do they want russians, do they want russians? wars, do the russians want, do the russians want, do the russians want wars, do the russians want, do the russians want, do the russians want wars, do the russians want, do the russians want, do the russians want. well, just some, you know, devils

have gathered, but i can’t call it anything else , it’s just such devilry, here are some knowing faces, that’s all, that’s all that can be said about it, and in the end, these knowing faces, what are they fighting for , for which they kill people again, for which they bury everything again around themselves, so that they are not considered like other countries, that they are somehow... not like that, well, we know, they are not like that, they are much worse, they simply do not have such an impression more despicable than russia and the russians themselves, with such opinions that they express that they are somehow exceptional, that is what nazism is, to actually think that you have...
