April 12, 2011 Inna Bulkina The Russian prime minister will appear in Kyiv on April 12 to celebrate Cosmonautics Day and visit the “Space Exhibition” in the “Mistetsk Arsenal”.

When we approached the police officers and asked them to record that some strange cars were parked, that trees had been collected to hide the destruction of the forest, which was carried out in the summer, when they began to ask for permission to carry out work, police officer Artyushkin began to call somewhere, after which the trees began to be quickly unloaded onto the ground. We are now filing a complaint about the inaction of the police.

In society The last hero April 12, 2011 Anton Orech Gagarin was our last hero. And who else over the past half a century would have been in the national mind an absolutely positive hero?

I do not know what they want to raise, what patriotism and from what knees - but they come up with from scratch on from scratch on November 4.
