On 26 May, a monument of Felix Derzhinsky will be erected on the courtyard of Minsk Military Academy. The sculpture is an exact copy of the statue that used to stand at Lubianka in Moscow. Its height is 3 meters 20 centimeters, reported Charter97.org. The Border Troops spokesman said that the decision was made to erect the monument because Derzhisky had been born in Belarus and dedicated a lot of efforts to strengthen the frontier troops.
A Belarusian émigré to the United States, Siarzuk Sokalau-Vojus, has recently written a brilliant fiction book “Bloody Grind,” in which Derzhinsky was empowered with extraordinary vampiric charms. The famous soviet brute was turned into a bloody infernal character. The novel literally represents what Belarusian intellectuals thought of him. It’s a shame anyone would want to see his statue in the capital. The fact of its erection is just another proof of the real nature of the Belarusian regime.
