  2. Can’t wait for the first video of Russian propagandists on TV moaning about the de-russification of Kyiv.

  4. I can only assume that there are some serious anti missile weapons close by.

  5. While up there they should also replace the ugly russian looking head.

  6. Has Russia commended on this yet? I wonder what they will say.

  7. Fascist symbols are being removed from Ukraine, it’s a glorious day for freedom and democracy.

  9. I’m surprised it had stayed up as long as it did.
    I guess they had allowed it to remain because “heritage”?
