Ukrainian deputies renamed Dnipropetrovsk

76
Deputies of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine made the final decision on renaming the city of Dnepropetrovsk. It is reported that the renaming of the city occurred within the framework of the law on so-called de-communization. The “decommunization” reached Dnepropetrovsk due to the fact that its name is associated with the name of a member of the Central Committee of the RCP (B) - VKP (b), Secretary of the Ekaterinoslav Council of Workers' Deputies Grigory Petrovsky (1878-1958). Now in Ukraine, Grigory Petrovsky is considered by the authorities to be the “organizers of the Holodomor”.

Ukrainian deputies renamed Dnipropetrovsk


Now Dnipropetrovsk will be named Dnepr, for which the 247 deputies of the Verkhovna Rada voted, with the necessary 226 votes. The relevant resolution of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine is number number XXUMX.

For reference: Dnepropetrovsk got its name in 1926 year. The first official name of the city is Yekaterinoslav (before 1796). Then the city changed its name several times, turning it into Novorossiysk (to 1802), then again to Yekaterinoslav (to 1926).

From the resolution VRU:
The city got its present name Dnepropetrovsk in 1926 by the name of the river and in honor of the party, Bolshevik and Soviet leader, the leader of the revolutionary movement and the chairman of the Central Executive Committee of the Ukrainian SSR - G.I. Petrovsky (1878-1958), who later became one of the initiators of the organization of the Holodomor 1932-33. The name carries the symbolism of the communist regime and, according to the law, must be changed.

      I was born there and lived there until the fate of the army called. They are bastards, of course, but it could be worse. One of the highly promoted variants of renaming - "Sich" - when translated into Russian has several meanings, incl. and urine. And Dnepr is the popular name of Dnepropetrovsk for many decades. Let it be so.

          And this question is not for me, but for those who renamed the plants. Most likely, they simply do not know the Ukrainian language. Do not think that I am exaggerating. When I am in Ukraine and listening to programs in Ukrainian, I am amazed at how much surzhik, or even just the misuse of words. Yes, in the same Parliament they do not speak Ukrainian at all.

            No, the question is still for you. smile
            You have misled people: in Ukrainian, "urine" is "slash". And the Cossack settlements were called "Sich" (in Ukrainian "sich").
            At the dawn of Independence, especially zealous and not particularly literate nationalists proposed to rename Dnepropetrovsk to Secheslav - like "glorifying the Cossack Sich", but in Ukrainian it looked like "glorifying urine." Then, of course, we figured it out and began to promote a more literate name "Sicheslav", but "the sediment remained" ...

            In general, this is all nonsense. As they say, everything hinders a bad dancer - monuments interfere, names interfere ... Soon, the facial expressions of citizens will begin to interfere and require replacement.

      And for five years - from 2010 to 2015 - KB "Yuzhnoye" transferred to the state budget in the form of taxes over 1 billion hryvnia. And from the budget received financing in the amount of 153 million hryvnia. In 2015 alone, deductions amounted to more than UAH 400 million. It came from the state - 15 million.

      And so - even swearing already no strength ...
      On New Year's Eve in Kharkov, the metro station "Sovetskaya" was renamed into "Maidan Constitution". Congratulated so to speak. We decided to add with renaming stations:
      - Proletarian - Green Guy
      - Soviet Army - Army
      - Marshal Zhukov - Sports Palace
      - Metro builders to them. Vashchenko - Metro builders
      - Uprising Square - Defenders of Ukraine, pah!
      And yet - generally rename all 9 districts of the city ... not counting the streets and so on ... Get lost in your hometown ...
