Zełenski, Wołyń, UPA. Ukraińcy mają innych bohaterów. Dlaczego stawiają na Banderę i Szuchewycza?

On June 30th, Ukrainians in many places celebrated Roman Shukhevych's birthday. City officials participated, people gathered, and there were flares and shouts. It's difficult for us in Poland to understand this, because for us, he's a figure unequivocally associated with the Volhynian massacre. For Ukrainians, he's a hero whom they remember and honor. All this takes place in the context of very tense Polish-Ukrainian relations, set against the backdrop of history. Why does Ukraine today place such a strong emphasis on the UPA legend, why does it seek to build its myth upon it, and what is the truth about the activities of the Ukrainian Insurgent Army? Professor Damian Markowski, a historian associated with the Pilecki Institute and author of numerous publications on Volhynia, including the monograph "In the Shadow of Volhynia. Anti-Polish Action of the OUN and UPA in Eastern Galicia 1943-45," answers these questions. The professor has been conducting research for years to compile a list of Polish victims of the UPA.
