Russian Warship To Be Named After Pyotr Stolypin

Dozens of festivities are scheduled on Stolypin's jubilee all across Russia – wreath-laying ceremonies, conferences, and public lectures. A warship and a street in Moscow will be named after the known reformist. Additionally, the foundation plans to erect a monument to Pyotr Stolypin.
The Stolypin Legacy Research Foundation has no information which ship will obtain Stolypin's name. According of the jubilee preparation plan, a proposal to name a ship in honor of Pyotr Stolypin was handed over to Russian Navy command, but there is no official reply so far. The foundation's staff waits for a decision to be made late in Dec. Allegedly, it was announced that the name of Stolypin would be given to a new ship being currently under construction.
