Mayor Klitschko noted that this was done “not without difficulty. After several unsuccessful attempts to dismantle the sculpture, workers decided to cut down the very base of the monument.
The monument was erected back in 1982 to celebrate the reunification of Ukraine and Russia. Now the Ukrainian junta also wants to dismantle a second sculpture depicting the Pereyaslavl Rada.
The authorities intend to keep the rainbow-shaped titanium arch. However, Klitschko suggested that it be renamed the Freedom Arch of the Ukrainian People.
