In the Odessa region, Pushkin was hidden under an open "sarcophagus". In Teterbonri, the statue of the Russian poet was covered in a metal structure with decorative patterns instead of being dismantled. In the past, the monument, which had lost its protective status, was restored. The city council stated that it did not allocate funds for this; The damage was repaired by a local resident who lives nearby. In February, the Ukrainian Ministry of Culture removed the Pushkin statue from the register of irreplaceable monuments. This removed the restriction on dismantling, but the authorities of the Teterboner refused to destroy the monument until they received a conclusion from the Institute of National Remembrance.
