representatives of local governments from many countries of the world. they shared experience, presented achievements and agreed on cooperation. ideally, i would like to... at least 10-20 agreements were signed here right on the stage, but in reality it happens differently, this is where this first very important contact between the ukrainian and moldovan mayors is taking place, some of them are already communicating, but some haven't yet, so it's really important to actually show them how horizontal these are connections play an important role precisely in building a safe, secure platform, the concept of the summit... urban regeneration is equivalent to societal regeneration, so special attention was paid to the regeneration of cities, increasing their attractiveness for human capital, security and growth, in the center of which ordinary citizens of any -which european state, and the signing of certain documents on

the country that has already announced that it will provide ukraine with an additional patriot, well , actually, the foreign ministers of ukraine and germany are jointly trying to work on in order to strengthen ukrainian air defense, and let's hope that today's visit will be a sign that these efforts already have certain results, well, but in the meantime, we are adding igor poshevail, director of the national museum of the revolution of dignity, coordinator of the heritage rescue headquarters, to ether with us already there, mr. igor, on the phone, we congratulate you, well, mr. igor, you were invited to our broadcast today, because today is the international day of landmarks, in ukraine there are more than 120 vimans of shukhevych, and his last one took place here heroic battle only on reconstruction of the museum building requires more than uah 2 million. will it succeed? whether it will be restored or a new one will have to be built will be decided based on the results of an examination and an architectural competition.

since the first days of the full-scale war , russian troops have been cynically destroying ukrainian cultural heritage, architectural monuments, unique old houses, temples and palaces. became targets of enemy shelling in 17 regions, mostly in kharkiv, donetsk, odesa, and kherson regions. at the end of february 2022, the invaders destroyed ivankivskyi with an artillery shell historical and local history museum in kyiv region. 410 exhibits were stored there, among them dishes, ancient tools and money, cossack weapons, icons, awards and letters from the front of the second world war, towels. hanna veres weavers. the pride of the museum was the collection of works of the ukrainian artist maria pryimachenko. they

were saved. the reconstruction of the museum will require uah 35 million, according to the estimates of the ministry of culture. and on march 7 , 2022, the russian army shelled the slovo building in kharkiv. at one time , poets of the executed revival lived in it. volodymyr sosyura, mykola kulish, pavlo techyna and others who were repressed by the soviets. power. the building is included in the state register of immovable monuments of ukraine. during the siege of chernihiv, the occupiers destroyed the house of vasyl ternovsky, a monument of national importance. this historic building housed the museum of ukrainian antiquities, founded in 1896, later the chernihiv historical museum, and since 1980 - a library for youth. ternovsky's house survived shelling in 1918 and 10'. 919 years, aimed at the second world war under bombs german nazis, but the kremlin

horde came and completely destroyed the architectural monument of the 19th century. the russians destroyed the mariupol drama theater with aerial bombs on march 16, 2022, despite the fact that hundreds of citizens were hiding there at the time, and in front of the entrance there was the inscription children in capital letters. hundreds of mariupol residents died under its ruins. now the remains of the theater are occupied. the authorities covered up banners with portraits of russian writers to hide behind them the traces of their own crimes. the building is also a monument of architecture, history and monumental art. as a result of a direct hit by a russian missile in may 2023, the national literary and memorial museum of hryhoriy skovoroda in kharkiv oblast in the village of skovorodinivka caught fire. the works and personal belongings of the philosopher were kept in the museum, as well as books of ancient, medieval and modern poets, ethnographic objects. the most valuable exhibits of the collection were not damaged, they

were moved to a safe place in advance. to restore the destroyed museum, it is necessary to assemble. uah 112 million. july 23, 2023. spasopreobrazhensky suffered significant destruction due to the rocket attack the cathedral of the moscow patriarchate in odesa, which is a unesco cultural heritage site. the invaders' rocket hit the central altar of the cathedral. the temple building was partially damaged, the three lower floors were covered, the interior decoration and icons were badly damaged, and the official offices were completely destroyed. in addition to destroying buildings of cultural objects, russians steal artifacts from churches, museums, and galleries. this is how the russian invaders robbed the kherson art museum named after oleksiy shovkunenko. they took away valuables and exhibits. in april in 2022, the russians exposed historical and cultural values ​​from the melitopol regional history museum. in may of that year

, criminal proceedings were initiated in ukraine over the theft of national treasures by the russians. from the museum more than 100 billion dollars will be needed for the reconstruction of historical monuments. the statistics of the losses of the ukrainian cultural fund will change more than once, because the shelling of ukrainian cities does not stop, and some monuments are located in temporarily occupied territories and their condition is not known for sure. thanks colleagues for this material. it is extremely painful to watch this story. especially when we had the opportunity to visit many of these monuments, and many of our viewers, i am sure, remember all the cultural heritage that russia destroyed, ihor peshivailo, director of the national museum of the revolution of dignity, coordinator of the heritage rescue headquarters, from we are in touch, mr. igor, we think that you also have thoughts on how

to reflect on this story, please, yes, thank you, thank you very much. for this plot, especially on today's international day, in which we identify historical monuments, places of interest, it is very important to draw attention to really such an attack on our cultural heritage, on our cultural identity, because these statistics and this story about the damage or the loss of movable and immovable monuments, of course it is inexhaustible and it is quite rightly stated that this the number will increase geometrically. aggression, when the territory of ukraine will be liberated, de-occupied, and these are all these dramatic events for the destruction of our historical and cultural monuments and in general objects of cultural infrastructure, because we are not we are even talking about the hundreds, there are already about a thousand cultural houses, which are sometimes, the buildings of which are sometimes monuments, sometimes not

monuments, but these objects are very important for local communities, because they existed there... certain circles, where older people passed on traditions, immovable cultural heritage, passed on to the next generations, young people, to their fellow villagers, and this scale, it is colossal, is a purposeful policy of the kremlin, and this is a purposeful attack on the erasure of our historical memory, our cultural identity , and therefore all these efforts are not accidental, and i mean efforts on the part of russian. eye drops, rocket hits, aerial bombardments, cultural heritage sites, purposeful hunting for historical treasures in ukrainian museums, museums, the melitopol museum was mentioned, there is also a unique story in the soviet era, the 50s, when unique archaeological finds were excavated and found in a local

mound near melitopol, part of the collection, more than half. it was during those times that the soviets were transferred, i believe, illegally to the territory of the then russian federation, it appeared in museums in st. petersburg, in moscow, and part of it managed to be left in ukraine, but as we can see, the rest of this collection was illegally exported from ukraine, and therefore this is a purposeful policy, and we need the support of the world, and today there are certain satellite monitoring laboratories that track and documents. just recently, the prosecutor general of ukraine, andriy kostin, announced the opening of 60 criminal proceedings related precisely to... crimes against cultural heritage in ukraine, and that is why international support, documentation of these crimes, and these, by the way, are satellite monitoring systems,

they document when there is an opportunity, when there are no clouds, for example, and the fact of the removal of cultural values ​​from the kherson regional, local history and art museum is documented, the same has already been proven targeted attack on the museum in skovorodynivka, in ivankovo, museum. higher, and therefore there is really a lot of work here, and we hope that sooner or later those funds, about which the figures are declared are really still quite so they are not defined, 100 billion dollars for reconstruction, for the restoration of destroyed monuments, and also very important processes must take place: restitution, return of lost monuments, and this is the most difficult process, because it is indeed possible to rebuild a museum, but it is extremely difficult to return stolen valuables. difficult, and we can see this from our previous history, many were exported from ukraine even in the last century, during the ukrainian revolution during the bolshevik regime,

during the second world war, and here, in fact , this process is quite difficult, long, it is a world practice, and here it is very important for us international expertise, and indeed the recognition of ukrainian cultural heritage as an element of national security, so that not only we remember these and this targeted policy of the kremlin to destroy, to erase this memory of ours and to implement this concept that ukraine does not exist, it does not have no history, no own culture, no language, there is no such people, and here a purposeful state cultural policy is very important, so that we really not only introduce registers and ascertain these sad statistics, but that we already today produced a very specific substantive, instrumental strategy. what should we do not tomorrow, not only after the end of the war, already today, track and keep registers of stolen valuables, and today

europol, interpol, fbi, criminal police of other countries are working abroad, which constitute that a lot of cultural values ​​are exported from ukraine it is illegal, and the efforts of the media, central authorities, local self-government, and the expert environment are actually needed here. mr. igor? i wanted to clarify with you, the biggest ones losses and damages, actually now there is such information that the cultural infrastructure of ukraine suffered the greatest losses and losses in donetsk, kharkiv, kherson, kyiv and kyiv, mykolaiv, luhansk and zaporizhia regions, so we understand that zaporizhia and kherson regions are partially occupied , donetsk, luhansk , also significant parts of these regions are occupied, but, for example, kharkiv, or kyiv region or mykolaiv region, and those, in your opinion, objects that are now under the control of ukraine, which are now

unoccupied or de-occupied, should we rebuild these monuments now, should we spend money on it now, because there are different opinions on this matter in ukrainian society, maybe it should be done already when there is no threat of missile strikes, so, what we are building now can be destroyed again by the enemy, what is your personal position on this matter? well, in general, the term reconstruction, it has at least several important components, and one of these components is early recovery or stabilization or emergency work, that is it is very important, it is important to stabilize those damaged, immovable monuments and objects of cultural heritage, which, if this stabilization is not done, they will simply disappear over time, and we have a lot of such successful practices, in particular. the museum of ukrainian antiquities mentioned in the plot or the library for youth in chernihiv, thanks to the world monuments fund, and this building has already been stabilized, that is, it has

the prospect of surviving and being rebuilt already after the victory, and therefore of course it is very important today not to just abandon it from to say that now the war is a direct threat of repeated arrivals, and we are not doing anything, no, today we need to evacuate collections and... and movable valuables that are still left, for some reason were not taken out, we need to stabilize these objects, i.e. to carry out anti-emergency works, strengthen walls, foundations, cover roofs, close windows, provide anti-vandalism measures, so that the monument waits for real reconstruction after our victory. it is obvious that many more questions will be asked about whether why a number of attractions, attractions. and a number of works of cultural heritage were not preserved at the beginning of the russian full-scale invasion, we will return to this conversation

during the russian-ukrainian war and after our victory, but we must understand that the help of international partners is also needed in this matter , you as a person who investigates this issue, who deals with saving cultural heritage, how can you analyze the efforts of partners now, are they enough, are they helping, are there any assistance programs and preservation of ukrainian cultural heritage? and regarding... well, this issue also has two aspects, firstly, external help is available, strategies are developed, trainings are taking place, including international ones, not only public organizations, but intergovernmental ones, in particular icrom, this is an international center, headquarters, which is located in rome, and ukraine became a full member of this intergovernmental organization in 2016 after the war, trainings are held, familiarization with their standards and practices is taking place,

international funds such as alif are very active in our country. example, the prince claus fund, sir, is a world monument fund, so international donors are very active today in the field of cultural heritage preservation. we have another problem, besides the external factor, there is an internal one. it also has many dimensions at the level of consciousness, at the level of preparedness, capabilities. ukraine was not ready, and it is no secret, to preserve cultural heritage in the conditions. the custom of demanding a full-scale invasion, and certainly no country in the world could be prepared for such a situation, and of course, if no preliminary preparations were made, because at the state level, no one believed that such an aggression would happen, so somewhere at the level of public organizations, at the expert level , trainings were conducted, we discussed this issue, evacuations, but this is the role of the state, it is decisive, because the state is responsible for preservation, and even evacuation before... and

rescue and preparation for the preservation of immovable objects, it takes place effectively only in coordination with the central government, local self-government bodies, and unfortunately, this coordination was not there from the very beginning of the war, and obviously, this is one of the those reasons why we have such large losses, and on the other hand, there were no capabilities, we did not have enough financial resources, ukrainian culture has always been delayed, well, this is a tradition. still soviet and post-soviet times did not pay attention to culture, and when we talk about the damage to our culture and the fact that culture is an important, important weapon of this war, war, and it is that, that zeal that preserves us as a nation, that preserved us as a nation during the statelessness of the last century, it is finally coming to the awareness of our politicians, state officials activists, and a lot of effort was made

last year to make cultural heritage... become an element of national security, if this happens, then culture will receive sufficient attention from politicians, from the military, by the way, from civilian military and military-civilian administrations, because my colleagues are ready to protect cultural heritage, but there are things that do not depend on them, just a few words, please, literally very briefly about the status under threat... the center of kyiv, lviv and odesa, what this status gives, actually in practical plane, if possible, then very briefly: in the practical plane it gives almost nothing, because the russians do not pay attention to any international conventions, agreements, but it attracts attention and at least helps to get resources for preparing for the preservation of these monuments, especially if we we are talking about mobile, monitoring and under...
