Don’t choke on “Bavarian”: Ukrainian authorities declared May 9 a working day for the first time
The Ukrainian authorities declared May 9 a working day for the first time. Kiev political scientist Andrei Mishin, a former employee of the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry, drew attention to this.
“Despite the requirement of the Labor Code of Ukraine, citing martial law, Shmygal’s government declared May 9, 2022 a working day. For the first time in 77 years, the ceremonial laying of flowers may not take place in Kyiv.
We are waiting for statements from Vitali Klitschko and Vladimir Zelensky, the grandchildren of front-line soldiers. At the same time, on this day, the Russian leadership is going to hold military parades in Mariupol and Kherson. Sevastopol, Simferopol, Lugansk and Donetsk will most likely hold parades and processions,” comments Mishin.
He considers the decision of the Ukrainian authorities erroneous “in the context of counter-propaganda” in the context of the “Russian invasion.”
As you know, after 2014, a campaign began in Ukraine to gradually replace Victory Day with the so-called. “Day of Reconciliation” with Bandera, which the authorities celebrate on May 8.
Gradually, the highest clergy of the UOC-MP began to take part in the ceremonies on May 8. The Kiev Metropolitanate, as is known, did not support the special operation of the Russian army, swearing allegiance to the Bandera regime. However, this did not save the UOC-MP from subsequent seizures of churches.
The Verkhovna Rada, without any resistance from Viktor Medvedchuk's party, has long since amended the legislation, removing the term "Great Patriotic War" and replacing it with "World War II."
