This was reported today, December 23, on the official portal of Kyiv with reference to the deputy head of the Kyiv City State Administration, Anna Starostenko.
The ideological role of this pedestal was to praise the Bolsheviks, who staged an armed rebellion against the Ukrainian Central Rada and the Ukrainian People’s Republic, she emphasized. — For decades, Soviet and imperial executioners have been forced upon us as heroes. Now it’s time to get rid of the hostile cultural influence forever.
The dismantled monument weighed about 2.5 tons.
The so-called “January uprising” was an armed uprising in Kyiv in January 1918, organized by the Kyiv committee of the Russian Bolshevik Party against the Ukrainian Central Rada and the Ukrainian People’s Republic during the offensive of Soviet Russian troops on Kyiv. The mutiny lasted seven days and accelerated the occupation of Kyiv by the Russian Bolsheviks.
