Not every citizen of the country likes this symbolism, but against history you will not go . @ The monument was erected in honor of Ukraine's accession to Russia . Initially, it had to contain a lot of details like figures of the Polish Pan, the corpse of a Jewish tenant and the tattered body of a Jesuit . But the citizens were so reluctant to donate money to the monument, which the result was made more modest in comparison with the project .

Address: Kiev, Sofievskaya square
