A magnificent creation of the SOVIET PEOPLE!!! It was built together by Russians, Ukrainians, Belarusians, Georgians and many other representatives of other peoples of the great Soviet Union, the winner of the fascist beast that raised its head in Germany in the 30s!!!
A well-built hydraulic engineering structure! I think it will survive decommunization and subsequent restoration, although the Kakhovskaya HPP did not survive.
The famous Soviet construction site.On the other hand, vast territories were flooded and thousands of people were resettled.During the Second World War, the dam was blown up, but no one thinks about people, the flood claimed more than 100 thousand lives of both peaceful and military people.It was rebuilt after the war.
