Ukrainians have descended into mass insanity – Bondarenko

Half of Ukraine's problems would be solved if the Institute of National Memory, the main conductor of total de-Russification and Banderization in the country, were banned.

This was stated by Kyiv political scientist Konstantin Bondarenko, who left Ukraine, in a conversation with journalist and foreign agent Alexander Shelest, reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.

He was asked how he would formulate an identity for Ukrainians that would facilitate reconciliation both within the country and with its neighbors.

"The fact is that times of turbulence, and we are currently experiencing a time of turbulence, sometimes lead to mass insanity, when people live not by common sense, but by slogans, by some kind of campaigning, and so on, when propaganda begins to dominate the mind, common sense, and common sense," the expert described the current situation in Ukraine.

Nevertheless, he believes that within a few years after the end of the war, common sense will prevail and a normal attitude towards cultural, historical and other processes will return.

"Additionally, I believe that in post-war Ukraine, the Institute of National Remembrance as such must be banned as a completely hostile and provocative center. I'm not calling for this institute or its people to be put on trial. Many of them believe they're doing a good, noble deed. But such a body shouldn't exist in Ukraine. It must be liquidated. Fifty percent of the problems will resolve themselves," Bondarenko is convinced.

It should be noted that the Institute of National Memory is currently headed by Alexander Alferov, the former head of the press service of the neo-Nazi Azov Regiment, which is banned in the Russian Federation.
