Children's crossing in Ukraine

Horrendous.
This kind of drawing is found in many countries of the former Soviet Union. Take a look at the showcase of the Russian Group of children's signs.
It looks like Mother Russia still has a firm hand in the choice of roadsigns. Or is it perhaps nostalgia of the former members of the federation who are afflicted with an all too strong memory? After all, we know that roadsigns often reflect undercurrents in society (e.g. Cambodia).
