Prague street next to Russian Embassy renamed to “Ukranian heroes” street

The part of Prague’s Korunovační street along which the Russian Embassy is located has been officially renamed to “Ukranian heroes” street, the Czech News Agency reported on Tuesday citing data from the city’s cadastral map. The renaming was approved by Prague City Hall last month. Councillor Jan Chabr says that a new set of street signs should be added by the end of April.

Renaming the street was originally proposed by the administration of Prague 6, the capital’s district in which the Russian Embassy is located.
