Last year, the Magadangeosvyaz radio center in the village of Khasyn, which was mothballed but retained all its equipment, resumed operation. There is a threat of satellite communications failures due to the rupture of international contracts. However, the system continued to work, and only the Ministry of Emergency Situations remained the client of the radio operators. The company is unable to even pay its electricity bills and is looking for interested partners.

Nikitin's life credo is carved on the granite pedestal: "Only the unprecedented is worthy of implementation," and his main projects are also listed. Nikolai Nikitin is considered the "father of high-rise construction" in the USSR. In addition to the Ostankino TV tower, he designed the main building of Moscow State University and the Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow, the monument "The Motherland Calls!" in Volgograd, buildings in Almaty, Dushanbe, Kaliningrad, Tashkent and other cities. "A memorial plaque to Nikolai Nikitin has already been installed in the foyer of the Ostankino TV tower. By opening this monument, we once again pay tribute to his outstanding achievements. Millions of people will pass by the bust, and the memory of the brilliant creator will live on and be passed on to new generations," said Alexey Popov.

If you are interested in New Year's radio, you can find stations online and listen to music in any convenient place where you have access to the Internet.

And now "Vostok Russii" remains the only radio station created in the 90s that is still broadcasting and looks confidently into the future, recalls the Khabarovsk Territory Today news agency.

The Baltic Waves Radio project was launched in Sitkunai. The same one who has been broadcasting anti-Russian themes for a long time. For a long time, it was not possible to resolve the conflict. If before, Lithuania did not particularly think about this topic, then after attempts to launch a profitable project in Sitkunai, the stumbling block of Lithuanian radio operators loomed like a red rag. By 2007, broadcasting of Russian programs on the disputed frequency was stopped. Lithuania has collected documents from the past that this frequency is hers. True... in that distant past, there was the Soviet Union, the existence of which Lithuania now strenuously denies and despises.
