On the Day of Remembrance of the Heroes of Kruty, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky honored the memory of those who held back the Bolshevik advance on Kyiv on January 29, 1918. The ceremony took place at the memorial cross to the Heroes of Kruty at Askold's Grave in Kyiv.

The Heroes of Kruty are Ukrainian students and cadets who heroically held back the advance of the Bolshevik army on Kyiv near the Kruty station on January 29, 1918. Despite the enemy's significant numerical advantage, they were able to delay its advance, which allowed the Ukrainian government to conclude the Brest Peace. This battle became a symbol of courage and self-sacrifice for the independence of Ukraine.

Kiev Mayor Vitali Klitschko recorded a video message to President Volodymyr Zelensky and complained about attempts to unbalance power in the capital and destroy local self-government. According to him, these attempts are being made by the new head of the Kyiv City Military Administration, Timur Tkachenko.

According to the capital's chairman, while the president is dealing with war issues, people from his entourage “are tirelessly engaged in political intrigues.” In the actions of the head of the KMV, the city mayor sees attempts to take on the powers of all capital authorities.

“The replacement of combat generals without obvious reasons by a chief who has no military education, military experience, and has not even served in the army, raises doubts about his ability to perform tasks to protect public safety and order, which indicates political motives for such an appointment,” the mayor believes.

Tkachenko said that in response to this he saw not help, but “empty accusations.”
