Alexey Komov biography. Alexey Kosinus: Pure music

Read: Lesha brings into the family the girl he is going to marry - TV presenter and ex-participant of the show “Dom-2” Alena Vodonaeva. Legally, we arranged a show for Alena and asked a non-rhetorical question: “Lesha, who is this?”

Lesha, who is this?

Lesha: This is Alena, she will live with us. (Laughs.) Since we announced our marriage, we have been constantly asked to tell some kind of love story, we have even tried to write one. In fact, everything is terribly banal, like in girly rom-coms: you meet your person and want to spend your whole life with him. We've been together for three months, but it took me five weeks to propose to Alena.

It’s strange, it seemed to me that it took you several years - you’ve known each other for a long time, haven’t you?

Alyona: Yes, for four years already. Our “cupids” - and my ex-director Ilya Dybov - put us in a joint DJ set. Back then it was considered fashionable for a celebrity to stand behind the turntables. I remember Lesha treated me condescendingly: let her dance next to me and be beautiful, and I will make music. And he really made cool music - I was so impressed that in all the interviews I said how sexy he was at work. Now the media has pulled up the archives and reminds me of these words. But I don't mind.

“A stamp in a passport is a ritual, married life is a regime”

Okay, he's sexy, you're sexy - why didn't it come to marriage that time?

Alyona: Lesha was in a relationship then, quite serious and long-term, and I believe in woman power and never cross anyone’s path, even if I feel like I can. After we met, I encouraged Dybov to invite Lesha to dinner at. I thought he wouldn’t agree, but he came. Now we remember this meeting, and Lesha says that I was very important and businesslike, but sweet. (Laughs.) Since then we communicated as friends. More precisely, I thought “as friends,” and Lesha, as it turned out, had been making advances all this time, but turned out to be such an intelligent pick-up artist that I didn’t even notice.

Lesha: When we were re-reading many years of correspondence in instant messengers, I pointed out individual messages to Alena: “Well, here I’m telling you almost directly that I care about you,” but she didn’t understand anything, it turns out. I grew up in a professor’s family, and I couldn’t express all my feelings to a girl so directly.

Alyona: Yes, here it’s not a matter of professorship, but in St. Petersburg, my parents are also a doctor and a teacher, but in Siberia everything is simpler than on the Neva.


How did such parents let you go to Dom-2, Alena?

Alyona: But they didn't know. I said that I was going to Moscow to write my diploma. By the way, I didn’t lie: I’m a journalist, and I chose reality TV as the topic of my work. I just had the courage to make myself a subject of my own research. In addition, at that time “Dom-2” was a “Star Factory” for the poor - any girl from the periphery could become a star, and it was not necessary to sing. And my parents, of course, were shocked - they are calm and reasonable people, like Lesha. I'm the explosive one in the family.

Lesha: Alena is just like my mother in character. Apparently, that’s why from the first meeting they began to communicate as if they had always known each other. Alena considers herself quite callous and harsh. And I think that she just always speaks to the point - you can endlessly praise and cherish your loved one, leaving him in the same place where he is. Or you can express fair criticism, allowing him to grow. The first is a comfort zone, the second is true love.

Everything is fine, but why be in such a hurry to get a stamp in your passport?

Lesha: Alena has a son, Bogdan, from a previous marriage; he is seven years old - the age when attitudes towards family values ​​are formed. He must understand: when people love each other, they take responsibility. So you say “stamp in the passport” and roll your eyes, but why? It is fashionable to consider marriage an outdated ritual, but in general, a person needs rituals and a regime for a healthy and harmonious existence. A stamp in a passport is a ritual, married life is a regime. This is cool, this is adult, it means that you are ready to bear responsibility not according to your mood, but always.


By the way, about rituals. What a pity that you don’t invite us to loaves and competitions with sliders.

Lesha: We don't invite anyone at all. Let this be only our holiday. You can noisily celebrate the tenth anniversary of your wedding, then you will have something to be proud of.

Alyona: The sacrament of marriage should still be a bit of a sacrament; with stupid competitions this is impossible. I only want to be with Lesha. Then, of course, we will have a celebration dinner with our parents and with Bogdan, who is adamant about eating the wedding cake. (Laughs.)

What kind of relationship did Lesha and Bogdan have?

Alyona: They are great friends. Usually men are not too fond of messing around with very young children, but consider Lesha lucky - he got a ready-made child at a very interesting age.

But Bogdan just agreed with Lesha that he would eat ten spoons of soup and run to watch cartoons, and you strictly told him to finish it, arguing that you are his mother here. And who is the boss in the house?

Alyona: I read somewhere that any woman has three faces of motherhood: “mother”, “not home” and “re-mother”. And due to the fact that for a long time I did not have a reliable male partner next to me, I became a bit of a “re-mother.” It’s difficult to unlearn instantly, but I think I’ll soon find a balance - Lesha is very patiently helping me with this.

“I didn’t try to sell myself to anyone for more profit”

Your first appearance on Alena’s fan club blew up, and then the imminent engagement drove everyone crazy: Is Vodonaeva pregnant? Are they having a PR affair? What's going on?

Alyona: By the way, here is a very important point: I knew that this would happen, and many of my subscribers, unfortunately, are rude in the comments, and even in private messages to Lesha. And I was a little ashamed of what I was subjecting him to, but he immediately, unlike my previous partners, calmly told me: “Everything is fine, I’m not paying attention.”

Lesha: The funniest theories are not even about a PR novel, but about our way of life. Neither Alena nor I smoke, we don’t drink a drop of alcohol, and we certainly don’t use any stimulants. And so she posts another punk rock photograph, the way we love it - in leather, with shadows, and in response there are immediately a hundred comments: “Drug addicts! Drug addicts!" It looks like the grandmothers at the entrance have finally mastered Instagram.

How is that? Did the fortune teller say it?

Alyona: Better is the clairvoyant and winner of the “Battle of Psychics” Ziraddin Rzayev. He and I co-host a show on RU.TV “A Pair of Normals.” And I never asked him questions about myself. And then at the beginning of the year I started an affair, and I decided to take advantage of my official position and find out where everything would lead. Ziraddin replied: “You can forget about this, but remember the number four.” And so in April, the fourth month of the calendar, we met again with Lesha, whom we had known for four years before. Isn't it fate?

Currently, in big cities, establishments where you can have a good rest and dance are especially popular; places where good and professional DJs work, such as Alexey Komov, who will be discussed in this article, are especially in demand. The topic of his development as a DJ will be touched upon and the great love that arose with the famous person Alena Vodonaeva will be told.

Today Alexey Komov is a professional DJ working in various nightclubs. For him, music is not just a job, but also the main passion in life, although for Alexey everything started out completely differently.

As a child, the boy went in for sports, in particular athletics, and achieved high results. Alexey’s coach prophesied a big and bright future for him in sports, but after some time an event occurred that completely changed his fate. The young man was invited by a friend to his birthday; among the guests was a famous person, musician Sergei Grashchenkov, who began to teach the future DJ music. Alexey became interested in this business, and soon he had special musical equipment for this at home. The guy trained on it and learned the basics of a new business. His neighbors also had the opportunity to hear Alekei’s efforts and “enjoy” his music. But nothing could stop the guy; he firmly and confidently walked towards his goal.

Purposefulness, hard work, the desire to create something new, original, unusual, creative did not pass without a trace. In Alexey’s career, everything worked out as if “to order.”

Music

Alexey Komov's career as a musician began at the age of 14. His favorite musical genre at that time was techno, and a little later, when the guy became an experienced DJ, other dance styles appeared in his arsenal. His success in the professional field quickly gained momentum, well-known companies began to notice him and invite him to work in various places. In a fairly short period of time, the young man became known to the public as Alexey Komov - DJ Kosinus. The music he created found love, recognition and approval from a huge army of fans. The musician was also awarded the status of “the most fashionable DJ.”

Reviews

Friends and fans are delighted with Alexey Komov and what he does. Every day he manages to do this better and better. This is a unique, talented musician with great skill and unusual performance technique. Each of his performances is original, individual and unusual.

Alexey Komov is a DJ who is rightly called the “king of electronic music.” Fans always look forward to his appearance on stage; the public loves him for his original approach to his favorite work: a guy can appear in front of others in an unusual image or suit. And each of his numbers always goes with a bang and is a success among lovers and admirers of electronic music.

Hobbies

The biography of Alexey Komov is full of interesting facts regarding his hobbies, and the musician has many of them. In addition to his main work in nightclubs, the guy holds parties in other establishments, and he is often invited to other cities and countries as a headliner. Working as a hair stylist brings incomparable pleasure to a guy. The guy considers this more a hobby than a duty, and in his spare time he does hairstyles and haircuts for all his friends and relatives.

Personal life

Alexei Komov and his wife Alena Vodonaeva can be classified as “star couples”, but unlike many others, young people do not like to promote themselves and prefer not to advertise their relationship in public.

Alexey and Alena met a year ago, in 2017, and were friends for a long time. The girl said that her husband is the sexiest man in the world. After a while, Alexey and Alena realized that they would not be able to hide their relationship from the public, and the couple began posting their personal photos on social networks, where they look happy and in love.

Next to the young man, Alena seems like a fragile and petite girl, since the guy is quite tall. It is not always possible for lovers to spend time together, the girl is in St. Petersburg, he is in Moscow, but this does not interfere with the spouses and does not in any way negatively affect family relationships. The couple has complete harmony, trust, respect and mutual understanding.

A year after meeting and long-term communication, the lovers got married. The celebration was quiet and modest. Despite the idyll in the family, many do not believe in this marriage, saying that Alexey Komov, Vodonaeva’s husband, is an insincere person who decided to advance his career at the expense of his wife’s popularity. Whether this is actually true remains unknown to this day.

DJ today

Currently, Alexey Komov is doing well both at work and in his personal life, the guy tours a lot, and he skillfully combines his performances with rest. Recently Alena and Alexey traveled to China, where the latter not only had a good time with his wife, but also delighted the local residents with his original music.

Recently, the guy has become interested in yoga and practices this activity accompanied by his favorite music, which he often writes himself. Komov is also involved in teaching music to young people, helping budding talents, just as teachers and mentors once helped him in his time.

Alexey Komov is a creative person, a talented person, energetic and successful. Preparing for the wedding and other life circumstances did not stop him from doing what he loved, touring various cities and countries. And his wife, Alena Vodonaeva, is a girl who loves her husband very much, believes in him and supports him in everything.

A week has passed since the day Alena Vodonaeva and Alexey Kosinus became husband and wife. But anti-fans, having seen photographs from the wedding of a former participant and a St. Petersburg musician, did not believe in the reality of everything that was happening, and the public was confused by the date of the wedding, because most registry offices do not register marriages on Mondays. In addition, a certain lady appeared online, allegedly an employee of this establishment, who said that Alena and Alexey just rented one of the halls of the Wedding Palace for a wedding photo shoot, the website writes. It was for this reason that people in love did not want to organize a magnificent celebration and did not even invite their parents to register, since nothing really happened.

But director Vodonaeva assures that all this is fiction, the wedding of Alena and Alexei took place, and Monday was chosen only because there are traditionally few people on this day, so you can easily find parking spaces in front of the registry office. He also said that the ceremonial painting took place exactly at 20.00, and there were five more couples in front of Vodonaeva and Cosine. And then the public saw the catch, because the Wedding Palace of St. Petersburg is open until 20.00, which means that they should have been invited to registration at least 30 minutes before closing.

Well, while debates are raging online about whether there was a wedding or not, some residents of the Northern capital were lucky enough to see the newly-made spouses at a public transport stop, where they got wet in the rain with their bags. Passers-by were surprised by Alena, who in real life turned out to be not so beautiful, and her vaunted breasts, which she displays always and everywhere, are not so luxurious.

And that’s not all, because a couple of minutes ago a well-known magazine published an interview with Vodonaeva, in which she boasted about the apartment that they were supposedly given as a wedding gift, although a couple of months ago she said that her fiance bought a house in St. Petersburg, where Now she has to solve all the repair issues. But as it turned out, in fact, the apartment was bought by Alexei’s parents, and when the man’s mother found out that her daughter-in-law was already trying to establish her own order there, she was quickly shown to her place and was forbidden to even approach this apartment. It is for this reason that Vodonaeva had to live in a hotel for the entire last week, and not in the home of her legal spouse. They also say that Alexei’s parents are very glad that they have finally settled their son, who will now live on the full support of his rich wife. Therefore, it will not be surprising that at one point Rustam Kalganov’s predictions will begin to come true, and terrible scandals will begin in this couple over money.

His club parties are a real fireworks of bright emotions and incendiary shows. There is never a dull moment with them.

And Alexey Kosinus, one of the most famous DJs in St. Petersburg, really knows how to organize them.

The gallery of his images is similar to the filmography of the film actor.

Either he appears before the audience in the form of an angel with huge wings behind his back, or in the company of luxurious strippers.

Alexey Kosinus (real name Alexey Komov) known as DJ Cosine. This is the host of the Western project Zeskullz (electronic music), a famous St. Petersburg DJ and talented musician. He composes his own music.

Born June 26, 1982. By this time he had become famous as one of the best DJs not only in St. Petersburg, but also in European countries.

Athlete and musician

Alexey has been involved in athletics since childhood and showed great promise. His coach planned a sports career for him. However, as it turned out over time, sports was not his real calling.

It all started with meeting with Sergei Grashchenkov, who became Alexei’s teacher.
The future DJ studied all his free time. He spent 5 hours a day learning to work as a DJ, which his neighbors suffered in silence.

However, the boy’s natural perseverance and his love of music brought results. Alexey learned the profession of DJ very early and realized that this became his calling for life.

The first performance in a nightclub took place at the age of 14. Despite extreme excitement, this boy, still a schoolboy, performed in such a way that real professionals appreciated his performance. He called this stage his turning point. The aspiring DJ's performances were associated with the Scottish techno trend.

This is how one of the most interesting and unusual DJs in Russia, Dj Kosinus, created himself. Although at that time he was not yet sure that he would connect his life with music, and this activity would become his main income. After school he completed hairdressing courses.

This did not become his profession, but, according to Alexey, he still cuts his friends’ hair from time to time. Haircuts and hairstyles have become a favorite hobby.

And music always came first. Alexey was lucky - he was noticed. Soon he was invited to the main techno team in Russia - Underground Experience (UE). At the same time, he worked as a promoter, organizing UE club performances.

1997 was the year when performances began in St. Petersburg clubs. Before 2000, Komov performed in the style of Scottish techno, and after 2000, the style of synthepop and house became a priority.
In 2004, Komov was awarded the status of the best DJ in St. Petersburg.

Each set of Cosine is unique, imbued with incredible energy. Professionals note the DJ’s excellent musical abilities and professionalism. In addition to his work, Alexey is also a wonderful artist who knows how to turn on the audience.

He - headliner the most famous St. Petersburg parties, his sets create an incomparable atmosphere of delight and intoxication with music, blowing up crowds of thousands of people at the largest events in the city. His performances are bright shows that are remembered for a long time and make you want to visit them again and again.

Komov – international DJ. He works in the best disco bars in different Slavic countries. From 2003 to 2005, Komov had the largest number of published club mixes - 40 releases.
He performed on the same stage with such famous musicians as Wally Lopez, Westbam, Boogie Pims and others.

Since 2010 he has been participating in a Western project Zeskullz, thanks to which he gained worldwide fame. Zeskullz is especially popular in Europe and America. Abroad, Komov collaborates with serious foreign music companies.

Family life

WITH Alena Vodonaeva– Alexey has known the star of “House 2” and television since 2013. Vodonaeva attracted fans with her bright beauty and charisma.

At this time, they were on friendly terms, and Cosine was in a relationship with another girl. However, last year a romance broke out between Alena and Alexei, and soon he proposed to the girl. “I was ready to get married 5 weeks after the start of the relationship,” says Komov, “Everything was so wonderful with us: you meet your beloved and want to be with her always.”

At first, the couple hid their relationship until happy Alexey began posting photos of them together on the Internet. The photos appeared on Instagram and it immediately became obvious to everyone that they were a wonderful couple. The relationship did not develop without difficulties; circumstances got in the way.

They lived in different cities: Alexey in St. Petersburg, Alena in Moscow. However, the lovers overcame everything - Alena came to St. Petersburg, Alexey came to Moscow.

They got married on September 11, 2017. And before registration, they rode a rare “Chaika” around the city. It is curious that only the newlyweds themselves were present at the ceremony.

I thought that all DJs were alcoholics and drug dealers, and then I met Cosine, who does nothing but change the world for the better - the Human3000 and RockStarYoga projects are his work. He also writes music, produces, and in his free time stands on his head and organizes daytime discos. Sober, of course, since he hasn’t been drinking for 4 years.

Lesha, don’t take it as flattery, but you look like a superhero. Maybe you never drank?

I drank, but not much. The first time this happened was at school. I was 13 then - this was the very beginning of my DJ career. I washed down my fear of performing with beer, but quickly realized that alcohol only harmed me and did not solve my internal problems - it was all a cruel self-deception.

Did you get drunk?

In utter rubbish and rubbish. Sports saved me - as a child I was seriously involved in athletics, so there was no hard frenzy. No after-parties, binges and the like. I only played in clubs, I didn’t hang around there idle.

At the age of 18-19, I worked as a stylist in beauty salons and became very tired within a week. On the weekend it was necessary to “reset to zero.” This is a common phrase - like, I’m tired, I’ll drink alcohol, lose weight, and everything will be great. Another harsh self-deception. True, I myself realized this only 4 years ago, with the advent of yoga.

We will return to yoga later. It’s clear with you - you worked in an environment where everyone is extinguished by something. But an ordinary person, not a DJ, why does he bother?

A man is looking for a solution to problems in a bottle. I'm tired - I rest and drink. I have problems in life - I forget myself and drink. As a result, instead of resting, a person gets even more tired - both physically, because alcohol breaks down the body, and mentally. You put yourself into this tailspin and the more you get involved, the worse life becomes. I saw close friends go into an alcohol tailspin, and, unfortunately, not everyone returned.

I’m lucky in this regard: I work a lot and quickly understand how being intoxicated affects my performance - and if the result doesn’t suit me, I don’t do it anymore. For the most part, people succumb to collective propaganda: “sometimes it’s possible, everyone drinks, it’s customary here.” I remember how I woke up with a square head and a broken body after such a “fun holiday” and how I could not work at full capacity the entire next day. I always work: both on weekdays and on weekends. Alcohol was getting in the way, so I made the tough decision to stay sober.

What did your friends say to this?

Friends went on strike. I came to a party and didn’t understand what to do there if not drink. I didn’t understand how to hang out, have fun and relax, because all the people around were drunk. One of my friends tried to persuade me: “Why don’t you drink, give me just one glass, what’s the problem.” They began to communicate with me less, but soon other people appeared nearby - who shared my point of view. There were also family holidays where you also “needed” to drink. After some time, everyone realized that I never drink at all, not even a glass of champagne on New Year’s. Not because I am such a strong opponent of alcohol, but because I simply don’t see the point in drinking. I constantly cleanse my body, so even a glass of champagne will feel strong. And in small quantities, alcohol is toxins, poisoning the body and a serious condition - why do I need all this? The brain of a person who has consumed alcohol does not work as it should - even after four days he is not able to make a clear decision.

I cut out alcohol because I like to be successful, confident, balanced and look cool. Alcohol does not contribute to this, which means it is not suitable for me. It's simple.

The final point for me, as a musician, was the fact that in a post-alcohol state, your ears do not work as they should. You can't hear the high frequencies because they get quieter. As a result, you cannot mix correctly and it is difficult for you to adjust the sound when performing.

What to do about it?

Canadian musicians I know use a special effect called alco-preset for these purposes. It is set to the general sound, the frequencies are adjusted to a certain range - if you are in an alcoholic state, use the alcohol preset, and everything will be fine. Smart guys - they found a way out. But this is not a solution, you understand. If alcohol threatens your product, your success, just remove it from your life, and no presets are needed.

What can you say about the great drunks who wrote great music? The same Mussorgsky, the same Amy Winehouse.

Yes, these and other talented people were prone to abuse. But the point is not that alcohol or other drugs helped in writing music. The ability to create creativity is given from above. Alcohol has nothing to do with it at all: it cannot help create a work, since it reduces our abilities. As a result, initially gifted people do less than they could, unfortunately. I say this with complete confidence, as I have seen this in the example of loved ones who were defeated by alcohol. At first their drinking was tolerated because of their genius, but as a result they lost their talent. And if they had managed to maintain health and a sober mind, they would have achieved much more.

Lars von Trier once said that he could not create without alcohol. He wrote the script for "Nymphomaniac" sober - it took 18 months, while drunk "Dogville" - in 12 days. I don’t know about Trier himself, I like “Nymphomaniac” more – the creativity is on a different level.

When you can put yourself into a state of creative flow on your own, without doping, this is a different level of development. You can develop yourself and achieve better results. I've never written music under alcohol. As for performances, it’s like comparing sex with a loved one or with a prostitute: mutual exchange on a completely different level. By remaining sober, you give pure energy to people, and you receive the same in return. In a clouded state, you give away part of your cloudiness, and you receive the same.

People justify their lifestyle by someone else’s negative example - “oh, cool, a rock musician is stoned - that means I can do it too.” This is all complete bullshit - this is the opinion of a sucker. Write it like this: anyone who says that it’s cool to write under alcohol or drugs is not creative and talented, but simply a sucker. If you can’t compose in a pure state, then you’re not developing – that’s the problem. The weak always look for a reason. Those who “create” under alcohol simply do not want to work. They dream of free money, easy success, but that doesn’t happen. Admit that you are so weak that without alcohol you are not able to put yourself into a state of creative flow. You need to work: on yourself, on the environment - then everything will be cool. This is the key: if you can independently concentrate and manage your creative energy, this is a level that shows how developed you are. To do this, we need to take care of ourselves, study and practice.


What about rest? For many, if you haven’t had a drink, it means you haven’t rested.

Another deception. Alcohol does not relax, but depresses the nervous system. At the moment of intoxication, it seems to you that you have relaxed, but let's remember what will happen after. It's time to learn to really relax and not poison your body. I found yoga and meditation for myself, or you can go to the gym, run a little, relax for a swim, relax in the sauna. You need to find a state for yourself when you forget yourself correctly. Sports, reading, music, nature - look, choose what suits you personally. Each person can find for himself a certain natural battery that frees, resets, relaxes and thanks to this charges with new energy.

In New York, I learned about the concept of meditation lunch - a very popular topic now. Businessmen and other successful people start their workday at about seven in the morning. Around two o'clock, tired guys come to meditation classes. Just imagine: a person comes and straight from the office ends up in the forest. To be alone with yourself for half an hour, to meditate in the most pleasant, harmonious state is priceless. You can choose the sounds of nature, sea surf or the crackle of a fireplace. This is relaxation on a completely different level than alcohol. You just have to search, try different options to find what suits you personally. But first, you need to understand once and for all that alcohol does not help - it is not a solution to problems. Everything can be solved differently.

Well, what if there is stress?

Stress is primarily an imbalance. Four years ago I had a difficult period in my life: difficulties at work, problems in the family, constantly arguing with my girlfriend - in short, continuous worries. I signed up for yoga. Nobody advised me - I decided to try it myself.

So, it all started with yoga? You practice, at the same time give up alcohol, switch to vegetarianism...

Yes. Yoga triggered changes in the body and consciousness. The most important thing is that you like it! You compare yourself “before and after” and see that what you do is really cool! You feel amazing and can easily solve any problems. You begin to understand that most problems are created by people themselves, by screwing themselves up. But if you calmly realize the situation, look at it from different sides, then everything will be resolved differently. I don't promote yoga. It works for me and I consider myself lucky to have found mine so quickly. As I already said, you have to look. The most important thing is to want it. Understand what you want to get from life, what goals to achieve. If you understand that alcohol does not help you with this, but on the contrary, it destroys and spoils everything in life, then you need to start working on it.

The first thing is to realize exactly how this problem is bothering you. Then you will start doing something, changing yourself, reprogramming - anyone can do this. The main thing is to want it.

You said that you are very good with willpower. Most people can't boast the same. Can you advise how to upgrade?

If the case is difficult, then it is better to find a person who wishes you well and trust him to accept help. Perhaps it will not even be a close person, because we do not always perceive family members as an authority. This could be someone from the outside - a coach, mentor, therapist or friend. It is important that he is authoritative so that you want to listen to him. It's difficult to fight alone.

Do you have moments of despair?

Certainly. But I don’t give in, I work through it. The state of despair stimulates me: to do more, to work more on myself. I'm not a super person, I've just always been quite conscious and sports helped me. When you need to run a distance in a certain amount of time, you understand that you have to do it. “Whether you like it or not” – there is no such thing in sports.

Are you strict with yourself?

Very. I never feel sorry for myself. I can work for a week without stopping in a variety of directions: perform at night, and run somewhere the next morning. This is how I live.

I noticed that the new generation of youth is more conscious. They already have their own values ​​and goals, they want to develop. But the culture of drinking and harmful recreation needs to be eradicated. This is not easy to do, but the main thing is that the bricks are already being laid.
