Description
Compares the memorialization of the Holocaust in Minsk and Kiev. In Minsk, a monument to the victims of the Holocaust was erected in 1946. Ukrainian Soviet authorities did not allow any monument to be built in BabiYar (Kiev) until 1976. Strong state and popular anti-semitism in Ukraine was the main reason for the delay in the memorialization of the Holocaust in Kiev for many years
