Pretty dumb imho, but hey, they can destroy /build whatever monuments they feel like in their country
These monuments are dismantled as colonial markers. Every city and town in the empire had to have monuments to Pushkin. They were erected even in some villages. Large cities had several of them. And not because there were so many Pushkin fans. It was a monumental propaganda of the cultural supremacy of Muscovy.
