Monument to Stalin unveiled in Zaporizhya
05.05.2010
While on the one hand the monument is on private property, and will, the communists say, be under 24-hour guard, it is disturbing how little active opposition has been shown by the very many people with good cause to find any glorification of a bloody dictator profoundly offensive

An article about attempts by Ukrainian communists to glorify Stalin and about the crimes of the Soviet communist regime

Memorial appeals to President Medvedev to end lies and secrecy over Katyń
06.03.2010
We believe that clear and unequivocal condemnation of the crime committed by Soviet State bodies following the decision of the leadership, a statement of steps planned to bring the Katyń case out of a dead end could be a turning point in the relations between Russia and Poland
Memorial: On Portraits of Stalin for the anniversary of Victory Day
04.03.2010
The fortitude, courage and valiant deeds of people defending their country in the years of War have been and remain a spiritual legacy for the entire nation, and nobody has the right to make use of this legacy at their will. Any attempt to rewrite this legacy in Stalin’s name is nothing more than pillage and blasphemy

Memory to order?
01.03.2010
There are historians who do not believe that Holodomor falls under the Convention on Genocide. Whether or not we agree with them is another matter, only in no way, is it a political one. When the issue becomes politicized, we end up with political tasks and the "necessary" court rulings like that of 13 January

While the law is an attempt to readdress injustice with regard to children of victims of repression, KHPG stresses that it is unfair to not acknowledge the spouses of victims to have been victims themselves
