MCIP set a record for the most mass reading of Taras Shevchenko's poem Kateryna. 210 people from 22 countries of the world joined the flash mob.

On March 12, the Ministry of Culture and Information Policy held a ceremony to set the Ukrainian record for the largest reading of a poem by Ukrainians and foreigners.

The event was attended by at. Minister of Culture and Information Policy Rostyslav Karandeev, Deputy Minister Anastasia Bondar, General Director of the Book of World Records Hanna Krysyuk and Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the Argentine Republic to Ukraine Elena Leticia Teresa Mikusinski, who was the first diplomat to join the flash mob.

We are happy to have implemented this large-scale project: it was really difficult to unite 210 people from all over the world. But we did it. Any work that is done with inspiration is unique in itself. And from uniqueness to a record is just a step, – noted Rostislav Karandeev.

Flashmob united people of different ages, genders, positions from all regions of Ukraine and from 22 countries of the world. In particular, representatives of culture joined: volunteers and artists Amil and Ramil Nasirovy, DJ and host Darya Kolomiets, actor Oleksandr Kobzar, human rights activist Oleksandr Matviychuk, actor and head of the Shevchenko Committee Yevhen Nyschuk and others.

Thank you all for helping to popularize the works of Taras Shevchenko all over the world. This case is a good story, which, we hope, will have its continuation, said Hanna Krysyuk.

Diplomas certifying the record will be given to all participants who read the poem.
