[Wiki Loves Monuments] Communist monuments in Ukraine

[attolippip]

Dear Emilio,

But what exactly do you suggest?

Creating lists to include the photos locally?
Taking pictures of monuments that are going to be not monuments anymore?
Raising awareness? Smth else?

There can be solutions to look for based on your answer(s) :)

Best,
antanana
