After the dismissal of a lawsuit filed by historian Götz Aly, who wanted to defend the name as an "esteem", and six other residents against the lack of resident participation in the renaming and the objection fee of 148.27 euros, it can now finally hit Mohrenstraße ("Blackamoor street") in the center of Berlin, which carries the old chauvinistic term for dark-skinned people in its name.

Thus, shortly after the war of aggression of Russian imperialism on Ukraine, it was decided to establish new homeland protection regiments, which are mainly composed of reservists.
