The Ukrainian Institute of National Memory has proposed renaming hundreds of populated areas that fall under the Law of Ukraine “On Condemnation and Prohibition of Propaganda of Russian Imperial Policy in Ukraine and Decolonization of Toponymy.”

As reported by “NBN”, with reference to the Facebook profile of People's Deputy Roman Lozinsky, the domestic parliament did not support the government resolution concerning the renaming of 333 settlements in Ukraine.
As it became known, only 208 people's representatives were able to vote for the document, thus effectively failing the voting process for the “derussification” of the names of 333 villages and cities in the country. According to Lozinsky, parliamentarians have practically ignored the historical chance to erase from the map of Ukraine everything imposed by Moscow over centuries of enslavement.
At the same time, MP from European Solidarity Oleksiy Goncharenko added that the deputies convened a “conciliation council” because of the above-described draft law.
Earlier, our information portal wrote that the Rada continues to work on an updated law on taxation of international parcels/shipments.
