В одній з промов Кеннеді сказав, що не слід питати, що зробила для тебе країна. Спитай, що ти можеш для неї зробити. Металургія – це не щось абстрактне. Її можна побачити і доторкнутися до неї. Це кораблі, мости, будівлі та багато іншого. Металургів і гірників Метінвесту – десятки тисяч. Ми живемо і працюємо в Україні та для України. Так просто й одночасно вагомо.

А що там, за ними?Читайте новий матеріал Метінвесту – і обов’язково дізнаєтесь.Легенда про перевернутий стягЧули про китайську художницю Мао Мао, яка на зустрічі з Леонідом Кравчуком порадила президентові перевернути прапор – мовляв, не по фен-шую? То знайте, що в цієї ідеї є набагато більше авторитетних носіїв.Наприклад, Михайло Грушевський. Подейкують, що відомий історик і голова Центральної ради УНР затвердив саме жовто-синій прапор. Однак, гетьман Петро Скоропадський змінив порядок кольорів – і спровокував цим масу питань типу «А навіщо?».Попри те, що жодних доказів немає, чимало людей досі впевнені: щойно прапор перевернути – біди України закінчаться і наша держава ввійде у період розквіту. Преса навіть Олександра Усика записала у їхні ряди – абсолютний чемпіон світу з боксу не раз з’являвся на офіційних подіях саме з жовто-синім варіантом. Втім, поспішати з висновками не будемо: адже перев

The preschool institution in Komunarskyi district, damaged by enemy shelling in October 2024, will once again welcome children starting from 1 September. During the attack, almost 90 windows were blown out and part of the frames damaged by the blast wave.
