A welder from the burned-out Mega Khimki shopping center named the possible cause of the fire

A welder from the burned-out Mega Khimki shopping center said that he followed safety precautions

A worker who carried out welding work in the Mega Khimki shopping center told law enforcement officers that he made fireproof flooring before welding so that sparks from welding would not pose a threat.

However, according to the worker, the flooring, apparently, was of poor quality, Moskovsky Komsomolets reports. The work on strengthening the roof was carried out by the commercial company Delta Stroy. As part of the investigation, the company’s documentation is being studied, and a number of expert examinations have been appointed.

Earlier it was reported that welders tried to extinguish the fire in the shopping center on their own, for this reason time was lost, the fire began to spread. One guard died in the fire.

Convicted American Krivanek left Russia at the same time as Greiner

An American citizen Sarah Krivanek was sent from Russia to the United States, she served her term in the Ryazan region, this is not connected with the release of another American woman Brittney Griner, said Natalya Epikhina, Commissioner for Human Rights in the region.

Tickets were bought from Krivanek in advance, she was supposed to leave Russia on December 8, Epikhina said in an interview with RIA Novosti.

The exchange of basketball player Brittney Greiner and the release of Kryvanek took place on the same day, Reuters writes.

The agency indicated that Krivanek was flying home via Dubai.

Epikhina explained that Krivanek was transferred to the Ryazan region in May, she had served her sentence. She was placed in a temporary detention center for foreigners, where she was waiting for deportation.

Special attention was paid to the release of Krivanek after media publications claimed that Krivanek was sent to the USA together with basketball player Brittney Griner, who was exchanged for Viktor Bout. However, Krivanek had already served her sentence and was subject to deportation from Russia in any case, unlike Greiner, who had just begun serving her sentence.

In February 2022, Krivanek was detained at Sheremetyevo, she was suspected of assaulting a Russian citizen. According to media reports, diplomats from the American embassy allegedly tried to help her evade justice.

The crime itself was committed in November 2021 in Odintsovo, according to the press, a woman, while drinking alcohol with her partner, stabbed him several times in the face.

Recall that on Thursday there was an exchange of Russian Viktor Bout for American basketball player Brittney Griner.

Bout spoke about the shock of the United States because of Russia’s desire to be independent

Viktor Bout said that the United States was “shocked” by Russia’s desire to “live and not depend on anyone”

After the collapse of the Soviet Union, many in the West are shocked by Russia’s desire to be an independent power and develop, but he did not encounter Russophobia in an American prison, said State Duma deputy Maria Butina Viktor Bout.

Bout, in a conversation with deputy Maria Butina, said that the West believes that they “did not finish off” the Russians in 1990, when the Soviet Union began to disintegrate. And now it is shocking news for them that Russia is just trying to be a truly independent power and develop according to the choice of the people, reports RT.

Bout also said that he did not encounter Russophobia in an American prison, both from other prisoners and staff, but on the contrary, they were set up with some kind of sympathy for our country.

“Or if they didn’t know anything, they at least asked something about Russia,” he said.

Recall that on Friday night the plane with Bout on board landed in Moscow. A day earlier, Bout was exchanged for US citizen Brittney Griner. The lawyer of the Russian compared the harsh conditions of Bout’s detention in the American prison “Marion” with “Alcatraz”.

Alla But, the wife of the released man, said that after the trip, Viktor feels terribly and very exhausted, as he has not slept for three days.

Sosedov called Vaikule out of her mind for her words about the USSR

Singer Laima Vaikule’s claims that she “supported” the Soviet Union and Russia sound very stupid, Russian journalist, music critic and music historian Sergei Sosedov said.

“A terrible, stupid statement by an old retired cabaret singer completely out of her mind. I feel very sorry for her,” Sosedov said in an interview with Spuntik Belarus.

He added that the artist’s statement is “complete nonsense”, and there is no need to seriously talk about this statement.

“Do you think I should comment on the nonsense of some fool, excuse me? Well, there is complete nonsense. She “contained the Soviet Union. I should comment on this, do you think? Well, then you also consider me a fool, ”he said.

“I feel sorry for her. I am not going to comment on insanity,” the journalist said.

Recall that Laima Vaikule stated that she allegedly brought a lot of income to the USSR with her work, and after its collapse, singer Alla Pugacheva brought income to Russia.

Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova suggested thinking about who supported the artists themselves, bought records, built factories and launched rockets into space.

Putin: Merkel’s words about the Minsk agreements confirm the correctness of the start of the NWO

Former German Chancellor Angela Merkel’s statement that the Minsk agreements were signed to make Ukraine “become stronger” is disappointing and only confirms the correctness of the start of the special operation, said Russian President Vladimir Putin.

“Honestly, it was completely unexpected for me, it is disappointing,” TASS reports his words at a press conference in Bishkek.

“It turns out that no one was going to implement the Minsk agreements,” Putin pointed out. “The leadership of Ukraine, in the words of the former president [Petro Poroshenko], also said that they were not going to sign it, but they were not going to execute it.”

Putin admitted that he did not expect to hear this from the former chancellor, since the German authorities, according to him, have always behaved sincerely with Moscow, although they were on the side of Ukraine. However, Putin added, it always seemed that Berlin sincerely sought a settlement on the principles on which the agreement was based.

The head of state wondered whether it was possible to negotiate with the West in the future. “But we have to negotiate,” he concluded.

Recall that the Russian Foreign Ministry stated that Merkel’s words about the Minsk agreements are an application for proceedings within the framework of the tribunal. Presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov noted that Putin also said that Kyiv was playing for time.

Biography

Origin and childhood

Langston Hughes was born in Joplin, Missouri. The boy was the second child in the family of a schoolteacher Kerry (Caroline) Mercer Langston and her husband James Nathaniel Hughes (1871-1934). From parents Langston Hughes inherited African-American, European and even Native American roots. Both of his paternal grandmothers were African American, and his paternal grandfathers were white: one was of Scottish descent and the other was Jewish. Langston grew up in the ghetto.

Hughes was named after his father and great uncle, John Mercer Langston, who in 1888 became the first black American elected to the US Congress from Virginia. His maternal grandmother, Mary Patterson, was of African American, French, English and Indian descent. She was one of the first women to attend Oberlin College. Mary Patterson married Lewis Sheridan Leary, who also had mixed blood. Leary joined John Brown’s men in a raid on Harper’s Ferry, in which he was severely wounded and died in 1859.year.

Mary Patterson married a second time in 1869; her husband was Charles Henry Langston, whose ancestors were Africans, Indians and Europeans. He and his younger brother John Mercer Langston were abolitionists and they led the Ohio Anti-Slavery Society in 1958.

Subsequently, Charles Langston moved to Kansas, where he worked as a teacher and actively participated in the struggle for the rights of the black population in the United States. Charles and Mary had a daughter, Caroline Mercer Langston, mother of Langston Hughes.

The Hughes’ marriage fell apart and the father left the family. He went to Cuba and then to Mexico in search of peace from the unbearable racism that prevailed in the United States. After his parents divorced, the boy lived in Kansas, where he was raised by his grandmother, Mary Patterson Langston. Through her generation’s experience in the abolitionist struggle, Mary Langston instilled in young Hughes a strong sense of racial dignity. Hughes spent his childhood in Lawrence, Kansas. After his grandmother’s death, he was forced to live for two years with Hughes family friends James and Mary Reid. Due to the instability in those years, his childhood was not happy, but even then Langston began to take shape as a poet. Later, Hughes resided in Lincoln, Illinois with his mother Kerry, who remarried when Langston was still in her teens. The family soon moved to Cleveland, Ohio, and Hughes went to high school.

At Lincoln High School, Langston was elected the poet in his class. Years later, Hughes recalled that at first he believed it was because of the stereotype that supposedly African Americans had a sense of rhythm. Hughes said: “I was a victim of stereotypes. There were only two black children in the class, and our English teacher constantly emphasized the importance of rhythm in poetry. Well, everyone knows it, except us, that all black people have a sense of rhythm, and that’s why I was chosen as the poet of the class. While studying in Cleveland, Langston worked at the school newspaper and yearbook editor, and even then began to write his first poems, short stories and plays. His first poem in the direction of jazz poetry, “When Sue Wears Red” (When Sue wears red), was written while he was still a schoolboy. It was around this time that Langston became interested in reading books. It was during this period of his life that Hughes began to say that the American poets Paul Laurence Dunbar and Carl Sandburg had the greatest influence on his work.

Early life

Hughes had a tense relationship with his father. For some time in 1919 he lived with him in Mexico. The relationship was so tense and unhappy, more than once it pushed the young man to thoughts of suicide. After graduating from high school in June 1920, Hughes again lived with his father, trying to convince him to give him money to study at Columbia University. Later, before returning to Mexico, Hughes recalled: “I thought about my father’s strange dislike for people of his race. I could not understand this, because I was black and loved black people with all my heart.

At first, his father hoped that his son would go to some foreign university and choose an engineering profession. Under such conditions, he was ready to provide his son with financial support and pay for tuition. James Hughes did not share his son’s desire to become a writer. In the end, they managed to reach a compromise – Langston should study engineering for as long as he studies at Columbia University. After the tuition fee was paid, he left his father, with whom he lived for over a year. At the university, Langston received pretty good grades, but was forced to leave the institution at 1922 years old due to constant racist attacks in his direction. In addition, in those years he was more interested in what was happening around Harlem than in education, and later Hughes returned to writing poetry.

Hughes did not have a permanent job for a long time. In 1923, he joined the crew aboard the SS Malone, on which he spent 6 months traveling from West Africa to Europe. Langston decided to stay in Europe when the SS Malone made a temporary stop in Paris.

In the early 1920s, he joined the rest of the black emigrants living in Paris. On November 19At 24, Hughes returned to his homeland and settled with his mother in the city of Washington. Since then, he has changed many jobs, until he got a job as a personal assistant to the historian Carter Woodson, who worked at the Association for the Study of African American Life and History. Dissatisfied with working conditions that prevented him from engaging in literary activities, Hughes quit and got a job as a busboy in a hotel, where he had to clean dirty dishes. At that time, he met the poet Vachel Lindsay, whom he impressed with his poems.
