On the basis of the Laws of Ukraine “On the Rehabilitation of Victims of Political Repression in Ukraine” (No. 962-XII of 04/17/1991), “On the Holodomor of 1932-1933 in Ukraine” (No. 376-V of 28/11/2006), “On the condemnation of the communist and national-socialist (Nazi) totalitarian regimes in Ukraine and the prohibition of propaganda of their symbols” (No. 317-VIII of 09/04/2015) examines the legal basis for decommunization in Ukraine.

The main provisions of these laws are considered, some of the most common objections to these laws are refuted, the nature of these objections is clarified.
