Victory Banner
On 21 April 2011 the Verkhovna Rada adopted a law which allows to raise the Victory Banner on the Victory Day. The current Victory Banner was adopted in Russia back in 2007. On 20 May 2011 the law was signed by the President of Ukraine Viktor Yanukovych. On June 17, 2011 the Constitutional Court of Ukraine recognised the law as non-constitutional and proposed the parliament to implement required amendments to the Constitution of Ukraine. On 9 April 2015, the Ukrainian parliament passed legislation on decommunization banning the promotion of symbols of “Communist and National Socialist totalitarian regimes”. From then on Soviet symbols, like the Victory Banner, are only allowed if located in a cemetery.
