Demolition of monument to pilot Valery Chkalov started in Kyiv

The scale of “de-Russification” in Ukraine never ceases to amaze. The authorities of our "Western neighbor" have declared war on literally everything connected with Russia, and with Ukraine, by the way, too.

Another victim of the madness of the ruling regime in Ukraine was a monument to Soviet test pilot Valery Pavlovich Chkalov, who in the summer of 1937 made the first non-stop flight from Moscow to North American Vancouver

Today, February 8, the dismantling of the monument to the pilot began in the capital of Ukraine. The corresponding video has already been replicated by a number of local media and TG channels.

Tellingly, the aforementioned act of vandalism takes place with the permission of the Ministry of Culture of Ukraine. Moreover, it is reported that the department gave the go-ahead for the demolition of another monument. We are talking about the monument to General Vatutin. The one who liberated Kyiv from the Nazis.

It is worth recalling that last year a monument to Catherine II was demolished in Odessa. Now, on the pedestal on which the sculpture was located, instead of the Russian Empress, the Ukrainian flag is installed. In addition, the monument to Valery Chkalov was previously dismantled in the Dnieper (Dnepropetrovsk).

However, the Kyiv authorities are not limited to the “war with monuments”. In Ukraine, they are actively trying to “rewrite” history, positioning their state as the basis of all Rus'. Moreover, the queue for “de-Russification” has already reached the UOC, in whose premises the SBU is conducting searches.

Let the Kyiv Metro be demolished - as a legacy of the Soviet past ...... DneproGES, Zaporizhstal, etc.

[Ivan Ivanov]

Yes, it is logical to bring Kuev to the state of the 10th-11th century, where / when, they consider, their cradle.

You look what kind of sea they will dig up ....

Kyiv has never been "Ukrainian". Rus', Russian Empire, USSR. Even the Balts had statehood from the first to the second world, albeit created on German bayonets. In Ukraine, only since 1992, and even then at first with a muddy name as part of the CIS. Maybe we should not scatter Russian cities? It would be nice if the Turks claimed the right to Izmail, Odessa, Kherson - Russia won these cities from them.

[Jack sklo]

Well, actually, the Ukrainians had a mobile statehood in 1919 "in the car - a directory, under the car - the territory." And if Lithuania is attributed to the Balts, then they have statehood, starting with Prince Mindovg.

E no. You will immediately be told that the Ukrainians built everything! Sami! Aha! Or poor nationalists from a concentration camp in Russia.

[dmi.pris1]

Yes, they have already stated that they launched the first man into space ...

[Reptiloid]

HA-HA-HE! Let them not forget about energy associations ---- Vinnitsaenergo, Kievenergo, Lvovenergo, Dniproenergo, Lvov oil refinery, Gas industry in Lvov and Ivano-Frankivsk regions. ..... You can’t count everything .... Yes, and oil shale and peat were developed in Lviv, Zhytomyr and other regions .... after all, the Muscovites tried hard. It is necessary to derussify by all means! And also

houses and factories, machine tools steamboats!!,

And the station in Antarctica ---- Academician Vernadsky ---- also let them de-Sovietize, no matter what it reminds! And universities! And the Academy! Selyukam there is nothing

[Ilgizl]

Well, what are you, this is different ... they learn from the owners.

[Quote Lavrov]

A country that is being built not for the sake of its nation, state, but in the form of "anti" will not be able to create anything in the end, because its whole essence will lie in opposing itself to Russia, and not in the creation of Ukraine, not in its own development.

There is someone to take an example from. In foreign Europe, with the protection of architectural heritage, everything is perfect: in the post-war period, thousands and thousands of valuable architectural objects were demolished there. Here, for example, the demolition of an architectural monument in Munich - City Hall, 1972:
[Center]

And there was a beautiful building of the early 20th century, but it looked very beautiful:
Instead of the town hall, a vulgar-looking hotel was built.

[kor1vet1974]

The scale of “de-Russification” in Ukraine never ceases to amaze.

And de-Sovietization. History has preserved the dialogue between Valery Chkalov and the American millionaire, which took place on the Normandy turboelectric ship. It was an ultra-modern and the fastest ship for that era, on which the Soviet crew returned to their homeland. The millionaire asked how rich Chkalov was - of course, the American reasoned, that you can risk your life like that only for the sake of huge sums! Chkalov did not succumb to the provocation of a foreign businessman. "I have 170 million," he answered without batting an eyelid. "Rubles or dollars?" – continued questioning persistent interlocutor. "170 million people who work for me and I work for them!" - put an end to the Soviet pilot.

[Vasilenko Vladimir]

Lord, why did you punish them like that?!

[Hagakure]

There is no punishment without guilt. It is the same in the spiritual world... The schism, etc., will come back to haunt them...

[APASUS]

I also think that Ukraine should be helped to get rid of the entire Soviet legacy. There is still a lot of things, the same nuclear power plants, hydro
and power plants, enterprises, bridges and railway roads.

[Alexandr2637]

The authorities of our "western neighbor" have declared war on literally everything connected with Russia, and with Ukraine, by the way, too.

It would be necessary to help them - to dismantle the remaining infrastructure, it is possible to dispose of the railway nodes ....

[oleg-nekrasov-19]

Let them not hide the monuments far, soon they will have to put up again

[Normann]

The idiocy of the Kyiv authorities will soon reach its climax (

[DefenderofTruth]

We will free the mother of Russian cities - we will return everything back!
And woe to that politician in the Russian Federation of any level who goes to an agreement with the Nazis of Ukraine, without liberating Kyiv!

[arnulla]

Real dibiloids ... The USSR was the same RSFSRER as well as the USSR. Natives from the territory of present-day Ukraine led the USSR much, much longer than a native from the territory of modern Russia. Plus Joseph Vissarionovich, a native of Georgia. Therefore, if there are claims to the USSR near the outskirts or Georgia, turn to the mirror ...
Do they have a history of pseudoscience?))

[HAM]

Some kind of philosophy of the flawed: the more it was invested in the country and built in it, the more "independent" and impudent it tries to present itself. The same Balts from the farms who they were? The breadwinners of the union, damn it! And now the "tigers" of Europe .. with a bare bottom ...... shame.
And these have one achievement ---- "They dug up the Black Sea ....." Change all the monuments for a monument to a Ukrainian beggar ... they will appreciate it in Europe ...

[faiver]

kazly, identify by name all those involved in this and exile them beyond the Arctic Circle ...

[single-n]

They don't break it. Let the "Kalash" break they are Soviet. Like 90% of all weapons :)) Otherwise, freeloaders shoved everything on us. And yes, they interfere.

[maozi77]

What, you don't understand what's going on? Sal laid out in detail on YouTube - this is an operation of globalists, that is, artificial incitement and bleed

[_Ugene_]

nothing, put it back, the time will come

[certero]

Was Kyiv Ukrainian or not absolutely do not care. In Ukraine, the West has made a great experiment in rewriting history and creating a new nation based on the idea of ​​racial superiority and hatred of Russia. and judging by the stubbornness of the enemy in battles, the experiment was a success.

[Alexey Krekotnev]

Yes, ask you, commentators, to tell a short biography of Valery Chkalov, then, for sure, you will hear something slurred. And all the same: the monument was demolished, the monument ...
