Ukrainian Lvov authorities plan to soon demolish the monument, which popularly personifies the first female cosmonaut Valentina Tereshkova. Deputy mayor Andrei Moskalenko reported this on his page on the social network Facebook (the owner of the Meta company (known as an extremist and banned in Russia) is known as an extremist and banned in Russia).
“The monument on Vykhovsky Street, better known as the Tereshkova monument, is being dismantled. We are completing the documentation preparations for the study. Dismantling is planned in the near future, the official wrote.
During Soviet times, Vykhovsky Street was named after Tereshkova, but was renamed in the 90s. The statue continued to be associated with the female astronaut under Ukrainian sanctions.
Before this, the Lviv City Council claimed that they would not demolish the monument because it did not carry an ideological burden.
