Most of the participants in the public consultations held in the People’s House are against the renaming of Chervonograd

This was announced on the website of the Chervonograd City Council.

On Sunday, October 8, consultations with the public regarding the renaming of the city were held in the People’s House. They began under the chairmanship of the first deputy mayor of Chervonograd, Dmytro Balk. The meeting was attended by Olena Okhrimchuk, Head of the National Memory Policy Department of the Ukrainian Institute of National Memory.

Each of the participants in the consultations in the “free microphone” format had the opportunity to express their position regarding the expediency of the renaming, to propose a new name for the city or to return its former name.

During a rather emotional discussion, the vast majority of those present in the hall spoke in favor of not changing the name of the city, since more than one generation of Chervonohrad citizens, Ukrainian patriots, who are in no way connected with the Soviet past, were born and raised in it. The history of Chervonograd was created by people who went through prisons and exile in Bolshevik camps. The color red is associated not with Soviet symbols, but primarily with the red and black colors of the UPA flag, the red viburnum, after all, the historical name of Red Russia. According to them, the city, which was the first in the Soviet Union to remove a monument to Lenin back in the 90s, clearly declared its pro-Ukrainian position.

Many proposals were made to postpone consideration of this issue, as it is not timely. And only three participants of the meeting proposed to change the name of the city, respectively to: Krystynopil, Klyusiv and Sagaidachny.

Therefore, based on the results of the consultations, a protocol will be drawn up, which will document all theses voiced by the speakers. After a special working group analyzes the proposals submitted in the People’s House, as well as in electronic form on the website of electronic consultations https://consult.e-dem.ua/consultations/683, residents will be invited to participate in electronic voting on this question.

At a public hearing, a woman in Chervonograd stated that the USSR still exists, but she does not recognize the Verkhovna Rada:
