Для Росії вже не святиня? Навіщо РФ вдарила по Лаврі? | Нова криза між Україною та Польщею

“It was most likely planned to strike [the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra] twice. This leads us to believe that it was a deliberate strike,” Anton Drobovych, head of the Center for Human Rights and War Memorialization of the Kyiv School of Economics and former head of the Ukrainian Institute of National Remembrance (2019-2024), reflects on Russia’s attack on the Assumption Cathedral in Kyiv on the night of June 15. In fact, the Russians are only: “imitate their connection to traditions,” adds historian, journalist, and publicist Oleksiy Mustafin. In his opinion, in reality, the Russians are not concerned about the cultural and historical value or religious sanctity of the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra and this was: “a conscious action to show that they will stop at nothing.” Against the backdrop of a real threat from Russia to all European states, a new wave of historical disputes has erupted between Poland and Ukraine. Recently, Volodymyr Zelensky named the Separate Special Operations Center "North" in honor of the Heroes of the UPA. This caused outrage in Poland. Such interstate disputes may primarily negatively affect the situation of Ukrainian refugees, fears Andriy Deshchytsia, Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of Ukraine to Poland (2014-2022), Acting Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine (February-June 2014).
