Kalmykova Advocates for Permanent Memorials at Maidan and St. Michael’s Monastery

Minister of Veterans Affairs Natalia Kalmykova has expressed her support for the existing spontaneous memorials honoring those who died for Ukraine at Maidan and near St. Michael’s Monastery. She advocates for these memorials, which have been erected by citizens, to be transformed into lasting tributes. Kalmykova’s stance reflects a broader governmental recognition of the role these memorials play in preserving the memory of the conflict’s victims. The memorials, which have been a focal point for public remembrance, will be reassessed for their potential to become more permanent structures.
