Props to the cameraman for climbing those ladders and filming.
Update: The Soviet Emblem in the Shield already removed and replaced with Tyrzub ( Ukrainian Coat of Arms )
don't know why they did that when they've had more than 30 years to do so and also Russia isn't communist now but ah well America.
LOL surprised they didn't put a swastika on it
@@Browz1 lmao 🤣
"a Nation That Forgets Its Past Has No Future"
what a mother we can see on the shield
No, because that wouldn't look good for western propaganda.
Its like the goddess herself is watching over ukraine in this statue
Pffft
In which direction is she looking?
this statue was builded by USSR by decision of Moskow. and doesn't have anything common with Ukraine. Motherland is USSR. It was done by people of USSR and for people of USSR, and doesn't have anything common with people of novadays Ukraine, with those of Ukrainians who worship Bandera , nazi
Impressive statue!
Thank you.
This place was so cool! I have been to the first observation deck in 2017
I visited Kiev in 2019 just before COVID !
The statue is IMPRESSIVE 😳😳😳😳
Would love to visit her one day
Im sleeping 3days after that journey to the top
Que hermoso lugar quisiera un día conocerlo y que bello se ve su país
Вставай, Батьківщина-Мати !!
The most amazing symbol. Of defence, a symbol of rebellion against the evilness of the east. ❤ For me mord important than every statue in Rome.
They changed the history now by replacing iconic hammer and sickle
Did European countries "change history" when they destroyed Nazi iconography after WW2? I don't think there is anything wrong with wanting to get rid of the symbols of your former oppressor. And it's not like they're touching the WW2 memorial/museum below the statue.
Replace the sign on the shield with the symbol of Ukraine.
It's a beautiful monument, no question.
Not gonna happen, the hammer and sickle belongs to Ukranians just as much as Russians.
@ yes
ukrainians will replace the sign as soon as war ends
@@akolyt 🤣
why bother? just demolish it, Ukrainians are good at demolishing their past, present, and future.
caraca, não conhecia essa estátua. impressionante
Obrigada.

The motherland calls in Russia look very nice than this one
Because in the soviet union all the statue needed to look realistic
nah this one is better
Russian statue actually means: "my genocidal dictator obliges me"
did you know that statue in Russia is not only one? it is part of triptych . there are 2 another statues - one in Magnitogorsk, Ural mountains, " тыл - фронту", where a worker gives Motherland the sword. in Volgograd Motherland calls her sons. and the last statue in Berlin , saves Germany girl, and lowers the sword above swastika - Nazi symbol, as the sign of Victory above fashizm. so it is grear statue, three in on

@@user-fp5iv5mg6n Great! Thank you for the great information!!! 🇷🇺
Only one Motherland Calls statue and it's in Russia and is the tallest in Europe. Respect to Russia from Scotland.
There is also this one in ukraine
Yikes. Take your hate and xenophobia for Ukrainians elsewhere. Both the Motherland Monument in Kyiv, Ukraine and the Motherland Calls statue in Volgograd, Russia were designed by Yevgeny Vuchetich. And by the way the Motherland Monument is taller, so that makes it the tallest statue in Europe. Respect to Ukraine from the USA.
@ no
@ You are disgusting. You are not Ukrainian and you do not support the Azov battalion.
fuc*ing russia
To think in a couple of weeks, this may all belong to Russia again!
let's hope not
This age well lol even tho I am pro russian
You’re nothing more than a Russian bot

Aged well alright.

Do ICN I'm all day I'm bored I it comes and goes and you know I'm living for the moment I guess it's just nothing satisfies me anymore nothing even not even anything it's like I don't know what it is let's do it though whatever it is let's do it
I seen that beautiful cap on the building sword man with the silver man with the silver sword I knew that was me I can't believe it's just too easy man it's too easy I don't want to know KRYME
You can't have mine I want I want man I want you the God you made I won
I thought it was a boy because of her face😂😂
The Kiev Authorities were required to adapt their female male statues to neutral status as to please the gays.
They are western puppets now who knows wtf it is...
USSR!
The motherland calls for Ukraine
the motherland being Ukraine
Are they any plans to demolish this former USSR status ?
No becuase it's not a ussr statue it's a war memorial for fallen soldiers at stalingrad and over the entire country. Why would the russian government destroy a russian statue built by a russian architect for russian soldiers?
Oh it's communist? They don't care.
shaggy the pillar man Kiev is in Ukraine.
What even does Ukraine still have to do with Russia?!
I hope not. Its a interesting piece of history. Interms of the word "motherland" and the conflict of the idea of religion, since communists thought religious people were exploiting working people, so they persecuted orthodox christian priests and murdered, and basically tried to supress it in a sense. So inorder to have replace new belief in something, Motherland was just that. So its just interesting part of history i think
Personally, when it comes to Soviet monuments, if it is monuments to say Lenin, Stalin, etc, you may take them down. But taking down WWII monuments in honor of those who fought and died fighting fascism crosses a big line.
Damn!! She looks just like a dude just like the statue of liberty!!
or maybe you look like a lady
This is the reason Putin considers Ukraine part of Russia. Russia's symbol over capital of Ukraine speaks of control and dominance.
Not really, Eastern Ukraine are in habited mostly by Ethnic Russians, they have tried to seperate from Ukraine since a few years ago, before the invasion, the symbol simply means the unity between industrial workers and peasants.
the hammer and sickle is not russia's symbol and the only reason it's there is because russia used to occupy Ukraine
@@e.777.r2 Eastern Ukraine is inhabited by ethnic Ukrainians you are spewing russian propaganda
Beautiful monument. Motherland statue in russia looks like shit compared to this one.
indeed
In fact, this momentum was built by Russian too.
@@douglasmacarthur8482 In fact if you know what the google is, you can see that both author and architect of this monument were Ukrainians.
@@Nick_Bourne Nikita, for the love of god avoid talking about Russia’s statue. You are giving us the urge to point out the obvious in your Kiev statue and it isn’t pretty.
@@russkayaimperiya4918 Это у рашистов стрёмная статуя с перекошенным лицом. Наша стальная еще и очень символически направлена на москву. Надо только убрать советскую дристню и прикрепить тризубец. И будет вообще красота.
Bullshit. Not the Statue at Volvagrad.
