The Ministry of Culture and Information Policy of Ukraine calls for an end to illegal actions against the historical monument at 37 Reitarska Street in Kyiv.

This is stated on the website of the Ministry of Culture.

Acting Minister of Culture and Information Policy of Ukraine Rostyslav Karandieiev noted that the dismantling of this monument is a violation of the Law of Ukraine on the Protection of Cultural Heritage and Article 37-2, which requires the recommendations of the UNESCO World Heritage Committee to be taken into account before carrying out work.

"It is obvious that right now illegal work is being deliberately carried out in order to destroy the material structure of the historical estate of Kiev," he stressed.

Karandieiev stressed that the UNESCO World Heritage Committee did not approve of such work, since the developer did not inform the Committee and did not receive any recommendations.

Recall that the monuments to Shchors and Pushkin will be deprived of protection status, then they can be dismantled.
