PROPOSAL OF THE NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES OF UKRAINE REGARDING THE RENAMING OF THE METRO STATIONS IN KYIV

Kyiv Metro has launched a public online poll on the renaming of 5 metro stations whose names are related to Russia or Belarus. The new names will be chosen for the stations “Minska”, “Heroiv Dnipra”, “Beresteiska”, “Druzhby Narodiv” and “Ploscha Lva Tolstogo”.

On April 12, 2022, the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine addressed the Kyiv City Mayor V. Klitschko and the head of the Kyiv Metro Municipal Enterprise V. Brahinsky with a proposal to rename the “Druzhby Narodiv” metro station to “Borys Paton”.

We offer to support the proposal of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine by participating in an online survey.

The poll will last until May 15, 2022.
