Thus, 85 deputies voted for the decision, none voted against, and 1 abstained.
The meeting was also attended by far-right politician and well-known propagandist of Petliurism Roman Koval.
“Petr Bolbochan is the person who has had the most victories over the enemies of Ukraine in the entire Ukrainian history. And today, in the age of the Ukrainian revolution, it would be simply a sin not to honor this man,” Koval said.
Bolbochan is one of the independent atamans of the times of the Directory of the UPR and the Central Rada.
