Zelensky signed a law on de-Sovietization of Ukrainian legislation

Speaker of Parliament Ruslan Stefanchuk reported this on Facebook.

From now on there are no:

• the desire to implement "Lenin's ideas of building a communist society";

• mentions of the "victories of the Great October Socialist Revolution";

• links to programs developed by the Communist Party;

• priority in the rights of Komsomol members, communists and others.

The Cabinet of Ministers must de-sovietize legal documents within three months, as well as develop a new housing, labor and administrative misconduct code.

According to the bill, 1,200 acts of state and administrative bodies of the Ukrainian SSR and the USSR were repealed.

“I thank all my fellow people’s deputies who helped develop this law and voted in favor of its adoption. Together we have done what people’s deputies have failed to do over the past 30 years of independence,” Ruslan Stefanchuk added.
