Poland wants Zelensky to apologize for WW2 Ukrainian Nazi massacre

RT: Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky should assume more responsibility for his nation when it comes to the Volyn massacre, a mass murder committed by Ukrainian nationalists against ethnic Poles during WWII, a spokesman for the Polish Foreign Ministry, Lukasz Jasina, has said.

In an interview with Poland’s Onet online news media outlet on Friday, the official was asked if Zelensky should apologize for the massacre.

“The Ukrainian side did not do this but president Zelensky should take more responsibility [for] Ukraine,” Jasina said. The issue has such an importance for Warsaw that it must be dealt with at the highest level, he added.

The dark legacy of the Volyn massacre still haunts the bilateral relations between the two neighbors and “blocks many joint initiatives,” the ministry’s spokesman said. In 2016, the Polish parliament recognized the Volyn Massacres as genocide at the hands of the Ukrainian Insurgent Army (UPA).

  1. This was one of the things I don’t understand why it was overlooked or ignored by historians, and the phony “we hate Nazis” left.
    (They love Nazis, only use that word to smear anyone who disagrees with them. But that’s another story)
    It was well known that most concentration camps during WWII had Ukrainian guards, while the SS was actually running the camps, the guards were mostly Ukrainian.
    Don’t take my word for it, look up the history of Sobibor, for example, and watch the documentary and the two drama movies about it.
    Yes, I understand how brutal was Stalin’s genocide (starved 6 million Ukrainians to death), and maybe that is why some are ignoring their role, but that should not excuse what they did.
    Glad Poland is bringing it up again.

  2. Nazi – National Socialists.
    ALLIED with USSR until June 22, 1941.
    Regardless of what else they were, the Nazis were Socialists – just as were the Fascists (Italian Socialists).

    In a very real sense, WWII was an internecine conflict.
    ALL the major participants were socialists to one degree or another.
    And socialists eventually turn on each other once they’ve defeated their “outside” enemies.

    Poland has a lot of nerve accusing anyone of anything.
    Poland gave as good as it got – and its history is as blood-stained as any other.

  3. Smurfs have been dead so long that their name is now a codeword for dead fat dudes at outdoor concerts.

    Not sure if the fuggin’ commies or the nazis are responsible so I’ll lump them into…CommieNazis… and avenge the Blue Shoa myself.

    Granted… their society had a decided lack of females and would have probably died out on it’s own eventually.

    I’m actually writing a paper on the extinction level event that wiped the Smurfs from the face of the earth and out of our collective memory…

    But I digress.

    Vengeance shall be mine in the name of Papa Smurf.

  4. Why should he apologize? Given the chance, the Ukrainians will do it again. It’s their modis operandi.
    The Piano-Playing-Penis knows that if US president King Schmuck stops underwriting the entire Ukrainian economy, every dirty secret about Hunter, das Wunderkind, (can there more?) is going be exposed. Zelensky (and by the way, Ji too) has President Pedophile by the balls. It’s called BLACKMAIL.
