Activists demand preservation of Ukraine's cultural heritage.

"The demand for public authorities is that the objects of the level of findings on the Postal must be protected by the state, have state funding, this is the national property of the entire Ukrainian people and can not be solved by any investor," Melnychenko stressed..

At the moment, protesters are installing tents, sound reinforcement and musical equipment on the Poshtova Square, and they also promise to install tents under the houses of the initiators of the draft decision, according to which the investment agreement with the developer is not planned to be broken. "In case of non-acceptance of demands and adoption of a draft decision at the Kyiv City Council session without dissolving the investment agreement with the developer, the tents will appear under the homes of signatories of this project - Klitschko, Strannikova, Bondarenko, Omelchenko and Gusovsky! "- he summed up.

Let's note, on June 7, activists opposing construction on the Poshtova Square, blocked the city council.

Recall, during excavations in the Pochtovaya Square archeologists found a whole street of the times of Kievan Rus. Until recently, it was not known what would be the future fate of the find, since at this point the construction of a shopping center was to begin.

Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko promised that the street will be saved.
