Ten years ago the Ukrainian earth received the remains of Oleksa Tikhyi, Yuri Litvin and Vasyl Stus
22.05.2000
On 19 November civil funeral rites were held in Kyiv on Baykovo cemetery to commemorate the 10th anniversary of reburial of Oleksa Tikhyi, Yuri Litvin and Vasyl Stus in their native land.
That is a pity that this time the cemetery did not see thousands of supporters and prominent speakers, who had been present 10 years ago. Relations came and the closest friends, together with those who organized this action and those who once shared bread with Tikhyi, Litvin and Stus in the prison AN-389/36 near the village of Kuchino in Perm oblast.
Now on the ruins of this prison a memorial museum of political repressions ‘Perm-36’ has been created.
