As reported on Hromadske TV, two fires are burning, with about 10 tires in each. Tires are periodically thrown into the fire.
The tires near the barricade near the Kyiv City State Administration were set on fire by Maidan participants as a sign of protest against the plans of the capital authorities to remove the activists’ tents.
Those Kiev residents who come up and ask not to burn tires are called provocateurs and driven away.
“Klitschko did not privatize Ukraine, and he cannot come and tell us to get out of here. We are here de facto and will be de jure, because thanks to us they are in power,” said activist member of the Maidan Public Council Vladimir, Interfax-Ukraine reports.
“We are waiting for Klitschko, there will be an explanatory conversation with the new mayor,” wrote activist Vadim Zgama on Facebook.
According to eyewitnesses, the barricades were slightly put in order, while on the street. Institutskaya they actually turned into garbage dumps. A vegetable garden was planted in a flowerbed opposite the House of Trade Unions: onions, parsley, lettuce, and tomatoes grow. The burnt Trade Union building is draped at one end with a large cloth.
Previously, the Maidan Self-Defense announced a cleaning on the Maidan on May 31 - a cleanup day, during which unnecessary tents and some barricades will be removed by City Day. According to activists, the question of how long the Maidan will last “depends on the decision of the state leadership on early parliamentary and local elections.”
Now the Maidan is gathering the next Assembly on June 1st.
