Suspilne: Sumy journalists create museum shaming russia

Sumy journalists and local volunteers are collecting exhibits that testify to the disgrace of the so-called “second army of the world” in Ukraine. Only a small part of the exhibits is collected under the roof of the Suspilne: Sumy broadcasting company. The museum is constantly replenished with new examples of the “military exploits” of Russians in Ukraine.

This is reported by the Karachun online publication.

As soon as you enter the lobby of the Sumy-based newsroom of the National Television and Radio Company of Ukraine, you are immediately struck by the creative photos of journalists and creative workers who greet guests of the newsroom in this way.

But very quickly, visitors’ attention switches to another location: on the floor, near the stained-glass windows, there are many different military exhibits: fragments of Russian soldiers’ clothes, a soldier’s flask, a broken tank sight, numbers from Russian equipment, an unexploded grenade, fuses from grenades, machine gun belts, Russian epaulets, a tankman’s helmet, an issue of the propaganda newspaper Red Star, a soldier’s prayer book, as well as all sorts of other Russian military junk.

Pavlo Borysov, a volunteer of the public fund Sumy, says:

“This is a museum of evidence of the crimes of the Russian army on Ukrainian soil. The first exhibits appeared here thanks to Ukrainian soldiers who brought some things from the front to the Suspilne: Sumy newsroom. It seems that the first exhibit – a helmet of the Russian army model of 1954 – was brought here by our Sumy journalist Sasha Kachanov. This is how the idea of creating a museum of Russian aggression was born here. Some of the exhibits are brought to the museum from the front by soldiers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, some by journalists from Sumy who travel to hot spots to shoot their war reports.”

By the way, almost half of the museum’s collected exhibits have already been sent to Lithuania, where it is planned to open a similar museum.
