A statue of former Russian empress Catherine the Great in the Ukrainian city of Odesa has been removed.
The monument to the founder of Odesa was originally put up in the city centre in 1900 but was then removed by the then Bolshevik rulers in 1920 before the local council restored it in 2007. At the time, with Ukraine having been independent from the Soviet Union for a few years, the Odessans wanted to bring back the statue as an act of gratitude for the founding of the city.
