“Why do they dictate to me from Lvov what to name the streets?” – Kyiv TV expert
Over the past five years, after the power of the Maidan workers, Kiev residents have found it difficult to recognize their hometown.
Ukrainian energy expert Valentin Zemlyansky spoke about this on the NASH TV channel, reports PolitNavigator correspondent.
“I now live in a foreign city. I was born in the city of Kyiv, now the devil will sort out half the streets, which street to go to. Bandera, Shukhevych, Petlyura - this is the least that could have been...
A lot of things happened on our streets; they believed that if they painted it yellow and blue, the bridge would immediately be repaired. Was it like that? Or if you replace the lanterns in the Mariinsky Park from cast iron to a Chinese remake. For me, yes, in principle,” said Zemlyansky.
“I do not impose on the residents of Rivne what their streets will be called. Resident of Lviv, Ivano-Frankivsk, Ternopil. This is their “misceva bulk, tse is their power on the right.” Why do these people think and allow themselves to dictate to me, a native Kiev resident, which streets I will walk along, what they will be called? That is the question.
That's not what we're talking about. If there is an initiative to name a street, then perhaps the local authorities will start by building this street,” the expert added.
