Workers of the world, unite!
The banner bears the Soviet Union state motto ("Workers of the world, unite!") in both the Ukrainian and Russian languages. In Ukrainian, it is "Пролетарі всіх країн, єднайтеся!" (transliterated: "Proletari vsikh krayin, yednaytesya!"). The name of the Ukrainian SSR is shown only in Ukrainian, and reads "Українська PCP" ("Українська Радянська Соціалістична Республіка").
