Berlin does not want to host the Ukrainian exhibition of destroyed Russian equipment
The City District Administration German capital continues refuse permission to hold an exhibition of Russian equipment destroyed in the war in Ukraine. The organizers, among whom, in particular, German cultural figures, wanted to place the exhibits in front of the Russian embassy in Berlin.
The district authorities justified the refusal by the fear that there were knocked out Russian tanks” probably people died “, and also because such an exhibition concerns the “foreign policy interests” of Germany.
The acting Ambassador of Ukraine to Germany, Andriy Melnyk, reacted to the negative decision of the city district administration. He noted that the refusal was really scandalous and called on the Chancellery, as well as the mayor of Berlin, Francis Giffay, to reconsider the dubious decision.
Destroyed Russian military equipment , which they want to exhibit in the center of Berlin, should give people in Germany a close sense of the brutality of this war to annihilation. Therefore, Ukrainians are shocked that the City District Administration rejected the application for permission with an absolutely frail justification. – said Melnik.
We add that the initiators of organizing the exhibition in Berlin, the Germans Enno Lense and Wieland Giebel from the Berlin Story Bunker Museum, submitted an application for the project to the City District Office as early as the end of June . Andriy Melnyk stressed that the Ukrainian embassy is doing its best to support this important project.
