A monument to writer and Soviet dissident Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn has been dismantled in the centre of Vladivostok, according to BFM.ru. The removal is drawing attention in Russia, where memorials to the author of The Gulag Archipelago have become a sensitive subject, and discussion is focused on who ordered the demolition and what it signals about attitudes toward his legacy.
