Lviv deputies signed the non-competitiveness of Ukrainian culture
The Lviv regional council decided to ban the public use of “Russian-language cultural product” in the region, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
This was reported by the ZIK TV channel.
Lvov deputies plan to extend the bill to the entire territory of Ukraine. In particular, they want to appeal to their colleagues from the Rada with a proposal to ban the public reproduction of “audiovisual works” in Russian, the TV channel notes.
Ukrainian journalist Andrey Manchuk believes that the decisions of the current Lviv authorities also contradict the “democratic tradition” of this city.
“I have never suffered from phobias towards the main city of Galicia. On the contrary, he wrote entire texts about the fact that this city was not always the religious center of the nationalist Sharia, and it had a different, democratic history - which is being carefully forgotten these days.
But I was always amused by bright-faced Russian tourists, or patriotic Russian-speaking Kievites who giggled at jokes about the Lviv metro, were delighted by the xenophobic humor of “Kriivka”, and convinced that discrimination against Russian is an invention of the Kremlin’s propaganda: after all, half the city speaks it.
And yes, also – these same deputies finally agreed on the destruction of the memorial to the Red Army soldiers who died during the liberation of Galicia from the Nazis,” the journalist wrote on his page on the social network.
Odessa politician, head of the Union of Anarchists of Ukraine Vyacheslav Azarov also responded to the odious decision of the Lviv deputies.
“By banning films, songs and books in Russian in its region, the Lviv Regional Council not only openly introduces discrimination on cultural grounds, refuting all sorts of “European values,” but also discredits Ukrainian culture, demonstrating that it cannot withstand free competition even in Galicia.” , he wrote on his page on the social network.
