Историк отметил, как вклад Героев Крут повлиял на современную Украину.

This was stated by historian Andrey Ivanets in a comment to a correspondent from Novini.LIVE.

The Battle of Kruty

"This memorial site (Askold's grave. — Ed.) is significant for all Ukrainians who fought for Ukraine and those who are defending the country today," said the historian.

According to him, the battle of Kruty and the actions of these young men managed to halt the advance of the Russian aggressor in 1918. At that time, our diplomats were able to achieve the first peace in the world war, as well as recognition of the newly formed modern Ukrainian statehood and the revival of the Ukrainian People's Republic.

"Without the actions of the fighters at Kruty, this might not have been possible, and today we would not have the Ukraine we have. Therefore, I believe that every Ukrainian should remember the Heroes of Kruty today,” emphasized Ivanets.

We remind you that today Zelensky visited Askold's Grave in Kyiv and honored the memory of the Heroes of Kruty.

The memory of the fighters at Kruty was also honored in Lviv at the Lychakiv Cemetery.
