>>16828600Apart for the Ukraine being the outskirts of the Russian Empire I wonder why no one started calling Alexander Pushkin by the name "Oleksandr" following the same logic instead of destroying all the historic monuments instead.
The following should work for the "Olekseii" Tolstoy, and "Fedir" Dostoevsky as well.
Who cares if it was for the Russian Empire. It's just the post-Kievan rus Ukrainian writers and poets, regardless of the place they were born.
