Russian comedian Maxim Galkin, who has publicly condemned Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, has shared photos of his children with Alla Pugacheva for the first time in a long while.

He posted photos and videos from a stroll through the streets of New York on his Instagram.

"On holiday with the kids," Galkin captioned the posts succinctly. 

In one photo, the comedian posed with his 12-year-old son, who has clearly grown a lot. 

And in the second photo, his daughter Lisa was smiling at the camera for her celebrity dad.

Maxim Galkin and Alla Pugacheva’s children: what is known about them

Twins Lisa and Harry were born on 18 September 2013. The children were born via a surrogate mother. 

After the outbreak of full-scale war, the singer and comedian moved to Israel with their whole family. There, the children attended an elite secondary school, but it later emerged that they had all moved to Cyprus together.

Gas and electricity tariffs for households in Ukraine are set to rise from 2027 – a memorandum with the IMF

Ukraine may begin a gradual increase in gas and electricity tariffs for households as early as 2027. This scenario is set out in the updated Memorandum on Economic and Financial Policies, which the Ukrainian authorities have agreed with the IMF. However, no final decision has yet been made – the document itself does not imply an automatic increase in tariffs.
