A Soviet-era sculpture in the center of the Ukrainian capital will collapse these days, according to an announcement by Kiev Mayor Vitali Klitschko.
This sculpture commemorates the friendship between Russians and Ukrainians and was made in 1982, to commemorate the reunification of Ukraine with Russia
“This week we will dismantle a bronze sculpture of two workers erected in 1982 to commemorate Ukraine’s reunification with Russia.” said Klitschko. “Eight meters of metal of the so-called friendship of the two peoples will be removed from the center of Kiev.”
A rainbow-shaped titanium arch extends over the monument, which is housed in a scenic overview. Klitschko said that the arch, originally called the People’s Friendship Arch, will remain, but only that it will be renamed and highlighted with the colors of the Ukrainian flag.
