“This approach is more similar to the dystopias that world classics wrote about, where books were burned.

The Ukrainian approach is to ban everything Russian, all Russian writers, to ban not only the common Soviet past, but also the Russian language as such - in my opinion, this is an attempt at cultural genocide, ”Daniuk emphasized.

According to him, it seems strange that such egregious violations of human rights are ignored by the West and international human rights organizations. 

Earlier it became known that the Ministry of Culture of Ukraine intends to exclude "propagandistic Russian literature" from libraries.

It is noted that the seized literature is planned to be replaced with “high-quality Ukrainian-language literature and books of Ukrainian publishing houses.”
