According to him, such a disrespect to the Ukrainian literary culture on the eve of the birth of the poetess was not expected by anybody. Instead of gold and bronze ornaments of the pedestal of Ukrainka, only metal pins remained, the tablet with the writer's name was also wiped, and the letters were scratched.
Recall that today, February 25 - Lesya Ukrainka's birthday.
Every year, writers, fans of Lesina talent and simply indifferent Ukrainians come to her grave on Baikovo cemetery.
"What abomination has this done?". Whose hand profaned the memory of the brilliant Lesya? ", writes the head of the Writers' Union.
Ssu already filed applications to the police with a request to find criminals. Ministry of Culture asked to restore the bust of the poetess.
As reported in the "URA-Inform", in Lviv intend to disassemble the stele of the Soviet Monument of Glory.
