It is supposed to stage fine pieces of Russian art. But the cultural institution in the far northern city now first of all displays support to barbarian war. Through its history , the Cultural Palace in Murmansk has put on display many of Russia’s finest and most eloquent expressions of culture. Theater plays by world renown writers, music by its composers, dance and ballet, children’s songs, opera and poetry. But for many, the Culture Palace will never be the same. Across its majestic entrance now hangs a big orange and black banner in the shape of a “Z.” It was put on the facade of the building on the 4th of April and the managers of the institution appear proud over their contribution to the ruthless and bloody war against an innocent neighbor.
As the banner was attached to the wall of the Cultural Palace, Russian soldiers, many of them from the Kola Peninsula, committed massive war crimes, killings and deliberate attempts to wipe out a nation. “The Murmansk regional palace of culture and folk art named after S.M Kirov along with many other cultural institutions join the campaign to place the symbol of solidarity and support to our soldiers on its facade,” a post on the institution’s VK page reads.
