It has been suggested that this article be merged into Derussification in Ukraine. (Discuss) Proposed since January 2024. |
The Russian invasion of Ukraine that began in 2022 has increased the rate of derussification in Ukraine, especially the removal of names associated with Russia and Russian imperialism.[1][2] Many toponyms have or are set to be renamed in accordance with the Ukrainian law No. 3005-IX, On the Condemnation and Prohibition of Propaganda of Russian Imperial Policy in Ukraine and the Decolonization of Toponymy, enacted in 2023. This is a list of toponyms that have been changed in accordance with Ukrainian derussification laws, including but not limited to the 2023 law.
