The mayor of Kaliningrad refused to install a monument to Stalin, citing repressions. Now the local branch of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation is demanding that she resign.
The Kaliningrad regional branch of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation submitted a request to install a monument to Joseph Stalin on February 7, and on the 18th they received a refusal from Mayor Elena Dyatlova. In her response, she emphasized that "the installation of monuments should serve to strengthen society and not cause controversy among public groups." Dyatlova also recalled that in 1961, the Stalingrad district and avenue were renamed, and in 1962, the monument to Stalin was removed.
Dyatlova cited the Russian Federation law "On the rehabilitation of victims of political repression" and the resolution of the Central Committee of the CPSU on debunking the cult of Stalin's personality. The first secretary of the regional committee of the CPRF, Maxim Bulanov, assessed the refusal as being at odds with Soviet ideology and called it "an insult to veterans, home front workers and all who achieved victory under the command of the Supreme Commander-in-Chief." The CPRF demanded Dyatlova's resignation, claiming that she is "incompetent."
By denigrating Stalin, she is trying to hide her own incompetence and inaction, which led to the difficult situation in Kaliningrad. We will not allow her to rewrite history and avoid responsibility!
- the local Communist Party of the Russian Federation expressed its opinion.
