Today we are righting yet another historical injustice. From now on, here in the Kyiv Pechersk Lavra, a bust of a great Ukrainian and patron of the Lavra, Ivan Mazepa, will stand, as it rightfully should. For centuries, Russia has smeared his name, striving to make Ukrainians view their own history through the eyes of others, convincing our people that Mazepa was a traitor. This lie has failed. Forever. And today, we honor our own outstanding statesman and military leader, patron, and head of the Cossack State, Ivan Mazepa. It is important that we are doing this precisely here, in the Lavra, which truly flourished under his patronage – with its churches, bell towers, and its unique Ukrainian Baroque face. And without doubt, a figure of this scale deserves a full-fledged monument in the capital of our state. I believe that there is an ideal location for it. It has been there since December 2013 on Shevchenko Boulevard, and I am certain that where Lenin fell, Mazepa will stand firm. From the address on the occasion of Constitution Day of Ukraine.
