I agree that most Ukrainians may not know re: Khmelnitsky, but no way somebody in adult population above 40 can be uninformed about Bandera. The youngest age below 40 that were educated in post-soviet Ukraine
may be indoctrinated to some degree. My friends in Kiev, Ukrainians as well, are uncomfortable with the new name of the Moscow Prospect
