In Ukraine, nationalists are forcibly imposing their values, and renaming streets in honor of Bandera’s supporters is aggression towards other residents of the country.

The famous Ukrainian composer Vladimir Bystryakov stated this on TV channel 112, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“I consider myself a person who thinks in Russian. Today they are trying to reformat our consciousness, because language is not what we say, but what we think. And if they impose some of their values on us, just as they impose the renaming of streets in honor of some Western heroes or metropolitans who have never been here or served here, this is also violence to some extent, this is also aggression on the part of people who believe that we should live the way they want... Ukrainization is being imposed... I have a part of Crimea in me, a part of Donbass, I have this in me. But I will never come there to dictate how people should live there. In this we differ from those people who very, one might say, persistently campaign for this,” Bystryakov said.
