Diskuse o sovětské minulosti se znovu rozhoří. V Rusku se stupňují útoky na památníky Poslední adresy
Discussions about the Soviet past will flare up again. Attacks on Last Address monuments are escalating in Russia

Summary/Abstract: The current document discusses the "Last Address" project, which commemorates victims of Soviet and communist totalitarianism. It originated in Russia in 2014 and has since spread to other countries, including the Czech Republic. The project faces increasing attacks, with memorial plaques being stolen or damaged, particularly in 2023. These acts raise questions about whether they are impulsive or part of an organized campaign. Despite bureaucratic obstacles and public indifference, new plaques continue to be installed, indicating support from property owners. The article also touches on the reluctance of authorities to engage with the project and the hostile media environment, with state-controlled media running negative campaigns against "Last Address."
