Kharkiv Mayor after the state of emergency with the bust of Zhukov urged "to return to common sense"

“It’s time to return from the Maidan to common sense and legal field, not to embroil people among themselves,” he said, noting that the majority of Kharkiv citizens prefer to express their position in a civilized way - without vandalism and various kinds of clashes.

Earlier it was reported that Ukrainian nationalists, protesters in Kharkov, piled from the pedestal bust of the Soviet commander, Hero of the Soviet Union Georgy Zhukov.

The official representative of the Ministry of Defense of Russia, Major General Igor Konashenkov, commented on the incident.

Also, the deputy of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine, Yevgeny Murayev, in an interview with the FAN assessed the situation.
