The authorities of Prague-6: First, we wanted to attach to the monument a tablet with data on the dark pages of Konev’s career
The Czech edition of Aktuálně published material on the situation related to the demolition of the monument to Marshal Ivan Konev. The monument, as previously stated in the Czech Foreign Ministry, was dismantled by decision of the authorities of the Prague-6 region.
The author of the material in a Czech newspaper writes that the monument is treated "with all due respect."
From the article:
We are talking about a warehouse in the village of Meszyca, which is 15 km from the Czech capital.

With these words, the author of the material in a Czech newspaper is clearly trying to justify the dismantling of the monument and its transportation to the warehouse. The words about “protection from ultraviolet radiation” are perplexing, on the basis that the monument has stood in the open air for decades, and, as it turned out, ultraviolet radiation is definitely not the most important thing that threatened it.
The article reports that the statue will remain in stock until the opening of the XNUMXth Century Museum. When exactly this museum will be opened, no one can say today in the Czech Republic.

The statement of the deputy head of the Prague-6 district is given:
The head of Prague-6, Ondzhej Kolarzh, said that he "repeatedly proposed to Russia to pick up the monument." According to Kolarge, now the municipality has refused to communicate with the Russian Embassy.

Earlier in Prague, it was announced that they had decided to put personal guards at the Collage "because of threats against him."
