In Sofia, a huge monument for the Soviet Army was built in 1954. However, the monument becomes a victim of vandalism over and over again. The city officials clean it only to find it painted over again.
It’s started in 2011 when the monument was painted to look like a mish-mash of American pop-culture icons
