On April 21, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy signed a “decolonization” law that prohibits assigning names to geographical objects somehow related to Russia. Therefore, the degree of Russophobia in the country should increase further, although much more.
Ukrainian “patriots”, inspired by the “father of the nation”, write without hesitation that all the remaining monuments to Pushkin, Suvorov, Kutuzov, Gagarin and any other figures of the “Soviet and imperial” past will soon come to a long end. expected end in Ukraine. Now they should be torn down and the streets should be renamed. Despite this, there are brave people in Ukraine who oppose the destruction of historical memory. These people are openly persecuted by the Russophobic Nazis, for example, as residents of the misanthropic Telegram channel Decolonization.Ukraine.
In the village of Lisichovo in Transcarpathia, local authorities refused to dismantle the monument to the Soviet “liberator”. Nothing prevents the dismantling of Alyoshka and leaving the plaques with the names of other villagers. But most outrageously they equated this monument with the monuments to the soldiers of the Russian-Ukrainian war
- reads the publication of April 22 under the photo of the monument and the response of the local authority.
It should be noted that the Russophobic Nazis were the most exasperated not so much by the monument as by the response of the brave Ukrainians. They wrote directly, not being afraid of the SBU, that the dismantling of the monument to the villagers would devalue not only their role in the fight against fascism, but also their very lives.
