“The invaders renamed Freedom Square in Mariupol as Lenin Square and displayed their tricolor over it,” Andriushchenko wrote in a post on the Telegram messenger on June 11.
He suggested that the Russians would like to replace the Ukrainian inscription “Mariupol” on the square with the Russian version (as they did to the monument at the entrance to the city).
“Stop destroying Mariupol. Just rename it Zhdanov again,” Andriushchenko wrote.
Earlier, the invaders changed the Ukrainian name of the city on the marker at the entrance to Mariupol to Russian. However, it was done so clumsily that the name of the city now appears to read as “Marnupol.”

Propaganda. They named it Patrick Henry Square.
Be nice to see some Soviet Russians and their collaborators hanging from that same pole when this invasion is eventually repelled.
Not to worry. Youtube has a ton of videos of Russian tanks being blown up. Mariupol will be back in Ukrainian hands soon.
What a cute little armchair warrior you are.
Say otherwise and you’re a globohomo Georgia guidestone.
So that means Mariupol drag-queen story hour has been cancelled?
Russians being Russians.
LOL..the Putin Puffer cult will not be happy with you.
In the future a statue of Putin will grace that park. Russians are never going to leave.
I do not believe this story. Period.
The same people backing Russia invading a sovereign country wouldn’t have a problem with Russia invading us. The reasons they give, our country is guilty of also
Yep. Russia is now using the T-62 tanks from the 60s. It has a crew of 4, no auto loader, gets poor mileage, and requires 25% mor in logistical support from a system that doesn’t function.
Expect similar things in other cities. In Berdyansk, streets renamed as Yezhov Avenue, Beria Square, Dzherzinsky Boulevard, Abakumov Avenue and so on. Let ‘em know who is in charge! Maybe in Melitopol they will have streets renamed after Vorkuta, Norilsk, Solovetsky, Kolyma, and, yes, Perm 36. Oh yes, the other main street in Mariupol will be renamed Katorga Way.
Hope the Ukrainians burn that statue down, like the one in Searltle should be.
Anything mamed after Lenin needs to destroyed.
I agree. Lenin was a murdering, evil, communist subhuman.
Whoa, you changed up your script! “Armchair warrior” is pretty new for you.
But I’m still waiting for an original thought.
I won’t hold my breath on that.
Mariupol is a beautiful name.
In the future it might be renamed Putingrad.
