... that Ukrainian museum director Horpyna Vatchenko forced the Hermitage Museum to stick to its agreement and return the Kernosovskiy idol(pictured) after a loan? Source: "if the Hermitage is one of the largest museums in the world and the best museum in the country, then the exhibits in it should be the best. Since the largest collection of Scythian masterpieces is kept here, of course, there is a place for the Kernos idol! All this would have happened if the director of the Dnipropetrovsk Museum was someone other than Horpyna Vatchenko." https://www.svit.in.ua/stat/st16_ukr.htm (source in Ukrainian - I used Google Translate)
