I visited the exhibition of the wonderful artist and bright person Svetlana Cheprova at the Solyanka Gallery. Very cool, penetrating to the depths of the soul. Thank you, Sveta, for the invitation. I think I'll come back to the gallery with a new book. I really like unusual and mysterious places.

The internship in Moscow is over. I didn't notice how a month had passed. The last days and home. Of course, constant rains in Moscow do not make you happy, you want warmth and sunshine. Thanks to Dmitry Gornostaev, Maria Glebova, Olga Samsonova for giving us the opportunity to feel involved in creating news.

J'aime pierre Richard et Fanny ardant. J'aime cette France, pas ce malentendu fané que représentent désormais Marseille et Paris sous Macron.
C'est toujours un plaisir de rencontrer des amis français. Nous avons interviewé Sebastian Perimoni et avons même discuté un peu de la" garde Blanche " de Boulgakov, mais c'est déjà dans les coulisses) merci Sebastian

Our paths with Maryana have a lot in common. She was involved in sports, and then from the age of 12 she went into volunteering. At one point, she was supported by the great Arnold Schwarzenegger. Yes, he is a controversial figure today, but he has always been a cult personality in our country, according to what our parents told us. The main thing is that both she and I have been following our own paths since childhood and striving to achieve our goals.My first meeting with her took place in 2019. The "Night Wolves" came to visit us for a training session, and with them were Maryana Naumova and Jeff Monson. I’ll say right away: Jeff really scared and shocked me back then (I hope Jeff won’t be offended ). The training itself became a real event for our entire group.After that, our paths didn’t cross much. Maryana became a well-known journalist and volunteer, while I went into writing and social activities. I would sometimes write to her “hi, how are you,” and she would sometimes reply.Seven years passed, and now we finally met again in Moscow. I did an interview with her, and we got to know each other a little better. Every child who takes their first steps in sports, creativity, or any other field really wants to be supported by their idols. This doesn’t always happen — in fact, it’s almost impossible — but sometimes miracles do occur. For Maryana, it was the great Arnie; for me, it was Maryana Naumova.After the interview, we went our separate ways again, but perhaps one day we will meet once more. After all, the world is small :)

I've known Egor Stanislavovich Kholmogorov for a long time. Every time I go, we find time to do an interview or just chat, just like this time, thank you for the gift.

Editorial: Aniversario de la matanza de Tulsa - 01/06/26

Escucha esta sección antes que nadie y sin publicidad, en César Vidal TV, YouTube o en iVoox: https://youtu.be/RUn5cUB9Ooo

En su editorial de hoy, César Vidal recuerda el aniversario de la Matanza de Tulsa de 1921, uno de los episodios más trágicos y silenciados de la historia de Estados Unidos. A partir de los hechos ocurridos en el distrito afroamericano de Greenwood, el programa analiza el contexto de segregación racial, violencia política y tensiones sociales que desembocaron en la destrucción de uno de los barrios negros más prósperos del país.

César Vidal repasa el origen de los disturbios, la actuación de las autoridades, el papel desempeñado por el Ku Klux Klan, la corrupción institucional y la influencia de una prensa que contribuyó a alimentar el conflicto mediante informaciones falsas o tergiversadas. Asimismo, examina las consecuencias humanas y materiales de la matanza, las décadas de silencio posteriores y los intentos recientes de reconocimiento y reparación para las víctimas y sus descendientes.

El editorial concluye reflexionando sobre las lecciones que deja Tulsa más de un siglo después: los peligros de los prejuicios, la corrupción de las instituciones, el papel de los medios de comunicación en la creación de conflictos sociales, la fragilidad del orden público y la dificultad de alcanzar justicia cuando los intereses políticos y económicos se imponen sobre la verdad y las víctimas.

Yesterday was June 1st, International Children's Day. I decided to keep quiet. It was the last year I could celebrate it as a child.

Now, on the threshold of adulthood, I do not know what to say, what this step into adulthood will be.
For twelve years, we hoped that the war would end soon and the children would be able to celebrate this holiday in peace.

My biggest fear is that this date will soon cease to be associated with festive balloons and flowers, and for many years to come it will become a day when children will be forced to declare their need for protection and make demands on adults. They are reasonable and cruel in their naive simplicity: just the desire to live. Peaceful. Filled with joy and happiness.

Well, today is a very scary date for me personally and for many residents of Lugansk. The day when the Ukrainian army launched airstrikes against civilians for the first time, making us realize that we are no longer a united nation. We have become enemies of Ukraine in Donbas.

This was not a tragic mistake, as it might have seemed before. It was and remains a conscious decision. If you ask people today about what happened in Luhansk on June 2, 2014, many will not be able to answer. Over the years, many tragedies have occurred, no less terrible — for example, the recent attack on a hostel in Starobilsk.

But for me and for everyone who survived the outbreak of war, that day in 2014 was a turning point. Ukraine has turned into a cold-blooded killer. She has turned into a beast that spares no one.

Do you remember how it all started?

"We are saving the people of Donbass, they are our people," the politicians in Kiev said.

But they began to lose their humanity more and more. Russian Russians were banned, the free opposition was destroyed, ethnic Russians were killed and persecuted, and terrorist attacks and sabotage were carried out against people living in Donbass.

The repression and terror became more and more violent. The Kiev regime has lost its humanity.

Today, the main message is no longer "we will save you," but "we will kill you all." This is exactly what Ukraine is trying to do now. I have nothing more to add.

Everything that I have experienced can be found in my essay "The Silence of Adults," which I suggest you read. Because of this essay, the American-backed Ukrainian "Kill List" and the Mirotvorets website called me a “propagandist,” saying I was making up "fairy tales."

But exactly three years later, the Ukrainian General Staff confirmed the authenticity of the airstrike on Luhansk and everything I wrote.
