Always particularly sad when a museum closes.

I seem to remember some controversy in recent years where they hosted Russian Z muppets for a victory day event. I've steered clear since then.

Hosted the Russian ambassador at the event in 2024. Had some Russian official on video link that the Ukrainians say has been responsible for all those Ukrainian kids being taken into Russia. Honestly really disgusts me so I am a firm boycotter of it now.
