Russia totally robs any centers of Ukrainian culture – Podolyak

The relevant statement was made by Advisor to the Head of the Office of the President of Ukraine Mykhailo Podolyak on Twitter, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.

“Want to talk about culture? Russia totally robs any centers of Ukrainian culture, takes away everything from our museums. Kherson museums were completely looted,” Podolyak wrote.

Theft, looting, destruction of cultural heritage of others are “the true content of modern ‘Russian culture’”, Podolyak stressed.

A reminder that Ukrainian Culture and Information Policy Minister Oleksandr Tkachenko stated earlier that Russian invaders had stolen the most valuable exhibits from Kherson museums.

According to Permanent Representative of the President of Ukraine in the Autonomous Republic of Crimea Tamila Tasheva, the Russian military took away about 15,000 museum exhibits from the Kherson region’s areas, which used to be temporarily occupied by Russia.
