The action took place in Donetsk on Freedom Square, near the monument “To Fighters for Soviet Power.” The youth were photographed with slogans-appeals to young Ukrainian workers: “Respect the real heroes – the rebellious workers of January 1918 in Kiev!” and “Ukraine will be Soviet! Will be socialist!”
