A National Pantheon will be created in the center of Kyiv in honor of Bandera, Petliura and “ATO heroes”
The director of the Ukrainian Institute of National Remembrance, Vladimir Vyatrovich, said that it has not yet been decided where the National Pantheon will be in Kyiv, but it will probably be the city center.

About this he said today at a briefing in Kyiv.
“Now there is only a discussion about where exactly the National Pantheon should be built. Now the next step should be to determine the location. I think that this should be the center of the capital, that is, the hills of the Dnieper,” Vyatrovich said.
Previously Vyatrovich declared on Radio Liberty that “Stepan Bandera is the new hero of Ukraine.”
As you know, on January 13, 2015, the Verkhovna Rada adopted a resolution on “honoring the memory of the heroes of Ukraine who gave their lives for the freedom and independence of the country.”
The resolution states that “in order to perpetuate the memory of the Heroes of Ukraine, who at the cost of their lives defended the freedom and independence of Ukraine, its territorial integrity and inviolability, to support the public initiative to create in the central part of the capital of Ukraine - the hero city of Kyiv - the Ukrainian National Pantheon, and in other cities of Ukraine - alleys of memory of Heroes of Ukraine.”
Parliament also recommended that the Cabinet of Ministers consider the issue of creating an appropriate memorial complex in the capital.
Let us recall that by another law the Rada recognized Hitler’s collaborators from Bandera’s OUN and UPA, as well as Petliurists and Galician Sich Riflemen, as heroes of Ukraine and fighters for independence.
The so-called Institute of National Memory is an office for falsifying history, created under the Polish model under Viktor Yushchenko to carry out the tasks of rewriting Ukrainian history in a nationalist spirit and collecting “evidence” of the correctness of the official version of the Holodomor of 1932-1933 as a deliberate genocide of Ukrainians on an ethnic basis.
The “Institute” was also involved in promoting the nationalist version of the “crimes of the totalitarian communist regime” and glorifying the OUN and UPA as heroes of the national liberation struggle of the Ukrainian people.
