The author, speaking from a first-person perspective, recounts the takeover of the Kharkiv Regional State Administration building by pro-Russian separatists and Russian militants. Avakov personally oversaw the anti-terrorist operation's progress in the Kharkiv region and played a role in its operational management during the night of April 7–8, 2014. Furthermore, the book offers an analysis of the underlying factors contributing to the pro-Russian unrest and mass demonstrations in the Kharkiv Oblast, as well as the events in eastern Ukraine during the spring of 2014.

Additionally, the book includes the publication of the "Plan for Kharkiv and the Oblast," a document that was intercepted from the emails of pro-Russian separatists along with their Russian overseers. This document outlines the Putin regime's intentions to take control of Ukraine, which involve "the establishment of a unified pro-Russian Ukraine in the long-term strategic outlook through the annexation of its regions (initiating with the Kharkiv Oblast) and the establishment of 'people's republics' within these areas, ultimately integrating them into a federal state."

During the period marked by heightened socio-political tensions in the eastern regions of Ukraine, widespread protests in the South-Eastern regional centers, and a surge in the seizure of administrative buildings by pro-Russian separatists, acting President of Ukraine Oleksandr Turchynov made the decision to dispatch key officials. Head of the Security Service of Ukraine, Valentyn Nalyvaichenko, was sent to Luhansk, Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council, Andriy Parubiy, was dispatched to Donetsk, and First Deputy Prime Minister, Vitaliy Yarema, was assigned to Donetsk.

Reception

The book 2014. Moments of Kharkiv Spring holds a vital and indispensable role in ensuring that these events are not forgotten, allowing both the current generation and those in the future to comprehend their history and cherish their nation. The selection of the venue for the book's presentation was deliberate, as the defense of this building played a pivotal role in the struggle to preserve Kharkiv as a Ukrainian city. The launch event was graced by the presence of regional state administration officials, the regional council, law enforcement agencies, individuals who were actively involved in the events, and the co-authors of the book. As they delved into their recollections, they were transported back to those tumultuous and uneasy days in the spring of 2014. The prevailing theme was one of relief: they were grateful that it all concluded the way it did, with the successful defense of Kharkiv and, by extension, Ukraine. Towards the conclusion of the presentation, the book's author underscored once more the crucial contributions of the caring residents of Kharkiv, as well as the unwavering commitment of law enforcement representatives who upheld their oaths, effectively thwarting the "KhPR" at its inception. The Jaguar special unitplayed a decisive role in bringing the anti-terrorist operation to a successful conclusion. The Minister extended his gratitude to the operatives, investigators, and members of the judiciary who saw this case through to its logical end. Arsen Avakov notably emphasized that the plan to establish the "KhPR" was ultimately thwarted due to the strong pro-Ukrainian sentiments of Kharkiv residents. The author of the book, who directly led the anti-terrorist operation in the Kharkiv region and supervised the liberation of the Kharkiv Regional State Administration, which had been seized by separatists, humbly refrains from highlighting his substantial role. Nonetheless, we all recognize the historical significance of our fellow countryman, Arsen Avakov, who was the Minister of Internal Affairs then and remains so today, in these pivotal events.

Oleksiy Haran, a political scientist at the National University of Kyiv-Mohyla Academy and the research director of the Democratic Initiatives Foundation, believes that "the release of the book about the events of 2014 is another signal for Volodymyr Zelenskyy" and also notes that "Avakov's activity is quite controversial. But in 2014 he played a positive role. Including in the creation of volunteer battalions, in the reaction to the "Russian spring" in Kharkiv. It should be acknowledged that Avakov then oriented himself on how to better organise and fight back".

Ukrainian literary critic and journalist Kostyantyn Rodyk in his review in the daily information and political newspaper Ukraina Moloda notes that "Arsen Avakov always has an intrigue up his sleeve. His next book is about the reasons for the governing organisational chaos of the first month after the Revolution of Dignity. And about the first victory in the Russo-Ukrainian war (which before Ilovaysk was not yet perceived as such): the brutal storming of the Kharkiv Regional State Administration in the early morning of 8 April 2014".

Honduran-Guatemalan War (1853-1855)
| 75,669,546 |
The Honduran-Guatemalan War (1853-1855) was a military conflict between the republics of Honduras and Guatemala sparked by the election of José Trinidad Cabañas, which opposed to the conservative ideologies of the guatemalan president, Rafael Carrera.

Conflict
|
The war began in February 1853, with negotiations attempting to resolve the conflict. Commissioners from both countries signed a treaty in Esquipulas blaming Guatemala, but President Carrera refused to ratify it. Renewed hostilities followed, with Honduras' President Cabanas crossing the border, seizing artillery, and sacking Chiquimula. Carrera, in pursuit, entered Honduras, looted Santa Rosa de los Llanos, and returned. Despite mediation attempts by Nicaragua and El Salvador, an armistice was only achieved after a more significant threat arose. Carrera, facing political challenges upon returning to the presidency in 1854, supported a conservative revolt in Honduras, leading to the defeat of Cabañas in 1855. Juan López assumed the presidency, resolving internal conflicts.

A fullback, McGill was a Drummoyne first-grade player and began with the Wallabies in 1968, filling the vacancy brought about by Jim Lenehan's retirement. In his second Test appearance, against the All Blacks at Ballymore, he scored 15 points off his boot to break the Australian individual point scoring record. Despite his record tally, the All Blacks claimed the win with a controversial last minute penalty. He had to withdraw from the squad to tour the British Isles later that year after injury his knee, but reclaimed his place at fullback and from 1969 to 1973 played in 16 successive Test matches. By the end of his 21-Test career, McGill had set a new Wallabies points record (72).

Conquérant
| 75,669,662 |
Conquérant was a founding stallion of the French Trotter breed, born in 1858 in Cotentin, Normandy, to breeder Pierre Étienne Joseph-Lafosse, and died in 1880. Son of the mare Élisa and the stallion Kapirat, descended through him from the almost Thoroughbred Young Rattler, he had an excellent racing career in mounted trotting for the Basly stable. Sold to the Haras Nationaux in 1862 after his racing career, Conquérant became a sought-after sire of 66 trotters.

His lineage spread, mainly thanks to his son Reynolds, a mediocre competitor and sire of Fuschia. Through Fuschia, Conquérant's lineage is still very much alive in the French Trotter.

Contemporary sources on Conquérant are mainly compiled in Les trotteurs, origines, performances et produits (1864) by hippologist and stud inspector Charles Du Haÿs (1818-1898). In Le Trotteur français (2007, reprinted 2015) horse historian Jean-Pierre Reynaldo devotes several pages to Conquérant.

History
|
Conquérant was born in Cotentin (Manche department, Normandy), in 1858, to breeder Pierre Étienne Joseph-Lafosse. His sire is the stallion Kapirat and his dam the mare Élisa, by Corsaire. His mother was born on the same farm. According to A. Ollivier, it was on the advice of Baron de Taya, then director of the Haras Nationaux de Saint-Lô, that Conquérant's breeder had his mare Élisa covered by Kapirat.

History

Conquérant's birth coincided with the beginning of the widespread use of the letter of the year among horse breeders, 1858 being the year in which foals had to bear a name beginning with the letter "C". Conquérant was trained for racing by A. Basly, and made his racetrack debut in 1861, at the age of three, for the Basly stable.

He won a 1,000-franc prize in a 4-kilometer race at Saint-Lô, beating Capucin and Y. in 8 minutes and 57 seconds. He won 1,350 francs at the same race meeting, beating Pierson and three other horses over 5 kilometers in 10 minutes and 43 seconds.

Also in 1861, he won 1,200 francs at Le Pin, beating Pierson over 4 kilometers in 7 minutes and 55 seconds. Beaten in Caen in 1861 by Y. and Bon Coeur, he nevertheless won prizes over 4 km and 1 km at the same meeting. Reynaldo attributes this single defeat to "legitimate fatigue".

History

He was sold to the Haras Nationaux by Basly, and joined the national stallion ranks in 1862. From 1863 to 1880, Conquérant was a breeding stallion, mainly at the Haras Nationaux du Pin. In 1873, according to the Revue des haras, de l'agriculture et du commerce, he topped the list of trotting stallions with 40,460 francs collected by his offspring, ahead of Phœnomenon (29,700 francs).

History

In 1869, breeder Joseph-Lafosse sold his entire stable, keeping only Conquérant's dam, Élisa, who finally died of old age on November 20, 1881. On this occasion, he left a letter, found and reproduced by archivist Alain Talon:

History

"My poor old and good mare Élisa, Conquérant's mother, the first and fertile source of our Normandy trotters died this morning. When I came back from Mass, I found her lying stiff, near the entrance to the Gouey garden, which she had broken when she fell. I'd put her in this small, sheltered room for her to spend the winter in. I bent over my poor mare, a long tear still wetting her eyelid, as if her last tear had been for me. Involuntarily, I felt my eyes moisten. Élisa died of old age, almost without suffering, no doubt, she couldn't have had a better end? I cared for her in her last years as she deserved. I was not ungrateful to her and treated her as a friend. Her noble career is over, and I can do nothing more for her than give her regret. - Pierre Étienne Joseph-Lafosse, letter dated Sunday November 20, 1881

Description
|
According to Paul Guillerot, Conquérant is a bay stallion, 1.59 m tall. Édouard Nicard describes Conquérant and his son Reynolds as stallions with slightly drowned backs, a conformation typical of trotters of the period. Conquérant is light and slightly round, with straight hocks. Nicard estimates that Conquérant is 44 % Thoroughbred, while Count Marie-Aimery de Comminges puts the figure at 38 %.

Description

Charles Du Haÿs considers him "the most beautiful son of the stallion Kapirat", endowed with magnificent gaits that he passes on to his foals. According to Ollivier, Conquérant remained famous for his ability to pass on his gaits.

Origins
|
Conquérant came from crosses between two breeds of horse, the Norfolk Trotter and the Thoroughbred. The Norfolk Trotter can be traced back to both paternal and maternal origins. His sire, Kapirat, and his dam, Elisa, both came from crosses between Norfolk Trotters and Thoroughbreds. This type of crossing, which resulted from the introduction of the Trotter Norfolk in France, was common in the 19th century to produce the best speed trotters.

Conquérant

Origins
|
Conquérant belonged to the male lineage of the founding Thoroughbred stallion Godolphin Arabian, and thus descends from the stallions Matchem and Young Rattler, by Rattler. Young Rattler was the first Godolphin Arabian descendant to breed in France. Impérieux, paternal great-grand-sire of Conquérant, is described by Charles Du Haÿs as the best son of Young Rattler. Conquérant's paternal grandsire is Voltaire, a Norman hunter stallion son of Impérieux, from the Basly stable.

Origins

Kapirat, Conquérant's sire, was born in 1844 in the Orne region, and is described as an excellent stallion, energetic and robust; he stood from 1859 to 1870 in the Cotentin region.

Origins
|
Through his maternal grandmother Élise, Conquérant came from the same stock as another founding stallion of the French Trotter, Phaéton. However, the origins of his dam, the mare Élisa, born in 1853, are disputed. Trained for trotting races by the Basly stables, Élisa only raced for one year (in 1856). She became one of the most important founding mares of the French Trotter breed. She was the dam of La Crocus, herself the dam of Phaéton. Corsair (or Corsaire), Élisa's sire, was a chestnut stallion born in 1845, standing 1.59 m tall, who stood at the Haras Nationaux de Saint-Lô from 1852 to 1860.

Origins
|
Élisa's maternal grandmother may have been the mare La Panachée, born in 1819 at Médavy in the Orne region, then acquired by the royal stables of Charles X in 1825, which were dispersed following the Revolution of 1830. Panachée was covered in Anjou by the Thoroughbred stallion Marcellus, giving birth to the mare Élise, dam of Élisa. Élise, then aged around 20, was imported to Joseph-Lafosse's stables in Saint-Côme-du-Mont, where she gave birth to Élisa. The French Infochevaux database cites the mare Élise, daughter of Marcellus and La Panachée, as Élisa's dam. Charles Du Haÿs attests to this origin in his book L'Ancien Merlerault; he also states that Elisa was originally a Merlerault mare. The stallion Matador, an ancestor of Elisa, is the source of many other successful Normandy breedings.

Origins

Another mare named Élisa is cited as the dam of Élisa born in 1853. This mare was born in Anjou in 1831, and like Élise has the Thoroughbred Marcellus for sire, but her dam is the hunting mare Jenny, by Young Rattler. She was a famous flat and steeplechase racing mare, and would have given birth to young Elisa at the ripe old age of 22.

Descendants

In 1896, Paul Guillerot wrote that Conquérant "was a sire of superior merit, and he endowed France with so many outstanding trotters [...] that he must be considered one of the most illustrious heads of the French trotting breed". In 1900, Alfred Gallier used almost the same phrase as Guillerot, considering Conquérant "to be the most illustrious head of the Norman trotting family". In Les familles de trotteurs (1908), Louis Cauchois, places Conquérant at the top of the list of five great sires at the origin of the French Trotter, as does Albert Viel in 1923, and then the Que sais-je? devoted to horse racing, published in 1967 by PUF and written by Jacques Gendry. Reynaldo also cites him as one of the most important breeders of the 19th century.

Descendants

The Bulletin de la Société d'encouragement pour l'industrie nationale of 1900 lists Conquérant among the six stallions that have "contributed most to the improvement of the Norman breed since 1840". Conquérant was the stallion who most influenced Anglo-Norman trotter breeding in the 1860s, along with Normand.

According to Reynaldo, from 1863 to 1880, Conquérant sired 66 trotters. However, only a fraction of these will go down in history.
