The photo of the rainbow flag on the sword of the Motherland monument, which was distributed on the Internet by LGBT activists, is a photomontage.
Elena Berezhnaya, director of the Institute of Legal Policy and Social Protection, told a PolitNavigator correspondent about this.
“There was no flag - it was a photo montage. We had an event on the morning of June 22, we went to the Museum of the Great Patriotic War, which has now been renamed, and they told us that no one had approached them (for permission). They themselves are outraged by this photomontage.
This flag was flown over Kiev by a drone, LGBT people paid for it. They were unable to hold their gay pride parade and simply carried this flag over the city. And the drone flew near the Motherland monument, and then they made a photo montage.
They achieved what they wanted - people began to be indignant on social networks, people did not know that this was a photo montage, of course, people were very offended by this, especially considering that this was done on the eve of June 22, when the war began, when they began to bomb Kyiv,” – said Elena Berezhnaya.
