«РУССКІЙ МІР» У ТИМЧАСОВО ОКУПОВАНОМУ МІСТІ МЕЛІТОПОЛІ

Abstract

The russian political and military leadership, the armed forces of russia are committing crimes against both the entire Ukrainian people and the residents of Melitopol, which contain signs of not only physical, but also cultural genocide. Racist invaders forcefully embody the so-called "russian world" in the occupied city, planting their way of life, language, imperial worldview, artificial culture, education, etc. The occupiers consider the multicultural Ukrainian people an "anti-russian" construct, and the independent Ukrainian state an "artificial formation", simultaneously propagandizing the model of "soviet friendship of nations". The destruction of everything Ukrainian and European began from the first days of the occupation by means of political repression of all those who did not agree with the new order. During the entire occupation, more than 600 local residents were protected, the fate of some of them is still unknown. In the city, national television does not work, there is no Ukrainian mobile connection and the Internet, Ukrainian monuments have been dismantled and streets have been renamed after the decommunization process. Residents of the city cannot communicate freely either in Ukrainian or in their ethnic language, and educational institutions are forcibly translated into russian and russian programs. In the local local history museum, "new exhibits" were made, distorting the real history and culture of the city, calling our region a part of littlerussia or novorossiya. In the city, looting "flourishes" and "nationalizes", private enterprises, apartments and houses of their abandoned inhabitants.
