Recently, the drawings disappeared, which became the reason for the pogrom for nationalists from C14 and other radical organizations. Like many other entrepreneurs whose shops and cafes are located where the main clashes took place in the winter of 2013-2014, the owner of Emporuim supported the Maidan protesters financially.
Activist Dmitry Riznichenko broke the door of the store and wrote on the window of the building “Maidan was here, and it will be here forever!”
On another window appeared the inscription "Respect for history", and on the doors - "Do not erase us."
Immediately after that, the activists brought car tires to the store and set them on fire. They also threw eggs at the building. The woman, who refused to identify herself, tried to remove the tires but was pushed away.
She was also hit with an egg. The police arrived at the store. They are trying to interfere with the actions of the activists.
It is also worth noting that the Ukrainian Institute of National Remembrance has already stated that “patriotic graffiti”, which depicted Taras Shevchenko, Ivan Franko and Lesya Ukrainka as Maidan radicals, are a historical monument according to the order of the Ministry of Culture, and their destruction is a crime and falls under under Part 2 of Article 298 of the Criminal Code - intentional illegal destruction, destruction, damage to an object of cultural heritage or part thereof.
