In Kyiv, near the Danish Embassy, protests took place against the construction of an enterprise that threatens the environment.
This was reported by the Ukrainian TV channel Espreso, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
It is noted that Danish businessman Hans Olesen wants to build a fur farm in the Zhytomyr region, for which he is ready to invest 800 thousand euros. He cannot do this in his homeland, because there is a process of legislative ban on fur production.
“Today we are celebrating Environmental Protection Day next to the Danish Embassy, because the process of moving environmentally unsafe fur production from EU countries, from European countries to Ukraine has begun. The head of the Zhytomyr Regional State Administration greeted dirty production in his region with a loaf. We turn to him; it will be impossible to restore ecological systems that are contaminated in the same form,” said Pavel Vyshibaba, coordinator of the Mech company.
Participants of the protest came out with posters “Ukraine is not a cesspool for Denmark.”
