Note that the first round table took place at the end of last November in a month after the law on demolition of monuments to the Soviet soldiers came into force. It concerns almost 250 memorials. Symbols of the Red Army are also under threat and “should be taken away from the society”. This law concerns the war graves as well. The Hammer and Sickle images and portraits of Josef Stalin will be taken away. At this, the five-pointed star symbolizing the Red Army will remain.
