Summary

[edit]
Description
Українська: "Петро Валуєв" як один з душителів української мови, зображений учасником театралізованого перформансу проти русифікації України. Позаду нього дівчина з "зашитим ротом" тримає імітацію Валуєвського циркуляру.

Акція відбулася на вулиці Банковій, біля Адміністрації Президента України у День української писемності та мови 2015 року. Її учасники вимагали вжити законодавчих заходів для захисту української мови в Україні. Організатор - громадянський рух Відсіч.

Під час перформансу персонажі: російські царі (Петро І, Анна Іоанівна, Катерина ІІ), російський імперський міністр Петро Валуєв, та диктатор СРСР Йосип Сталін, які уславилися русифікацією України й переслідуванням української мови, хвалили й дякували тодішній українській владі, за те, що вона продовжує їхню політику щодо української мови. Позаду кожного з персонажів активіст з "зашитим ротом" тримав імітацію одного з його (чи її) історичного документу, що засвідчує його (чи її) українофобську політику. Кілька активістів тримали плакати з інфографікою про пригноблене становище української мови в медіа-сфері України, або з закликами законодавчо захистити українську мову. Вела захід "радянська школярка" - як символ русифікації України в СРСР.
English: Pyotr Valuev is depicted as one of the Russian high-ranking officials who persecuted the Ukrainian language during a performance against the Russification of Ukraine. Behind him, a girl with a "stitched mouth" is holding an imitation of the Valuev Circular.

The demonstration took place on Bankova Street, near the Administration of the President of Ukraine, on the Day of Ukrainian Writing and Language in 2015. Its participants demanded to take legislative measures to protect the Ukrainian language in Ukraine. The organizer was the Civic Movement Vidsich.

During the performance, characters such as Russian tsars (Peter I, Anna Ioannovna, Catherine II), the Russian imperial minister Pyotr Valuev, and the dictator of the USSR Joseph Stalin, who became famous for the Russification of Ukraine and the suppression of the Ukrainian language, praised and thanked the then Ukrainian government for continuing their policy regarding the Ukrainian language. Behind each of the characters, an activist with a "stitched mouth" held an imitation of one of the historical documents certifying the Ukrainophobic policy implemented by these officials. Several activists held posters with infographics about the oppressed position of the Ukrainian language in the media sphere of Ukraine or with calls for legislative protection of the Ukrainian language. A "Soviet schoolgirl" was moderating the event as the symbol of the Russification of Ukraine in the USSR.
