Professor Grzegorz Motyka explains what the Ukrainian Pows Dances Army (UPA) was about 83 years ago, how the Volynsk Crime ran and why its subject remains 1 of the most painful cards of the common past of Poland and Ukraine. We wonder how trauma affects Polish-Ukrainian relations and whether it is possible to alleviate the dispute around UPA.
We are besides discussing the question of Grzegorz Braun, who in the European Parliament voted against the passages of the resolution criticizing the Ukrainian military unit's name "UpA Heroes" — which, in the light of his rhetoric to date, is rather surprising. We besides callback his words "Ukraine is our enemy" said during the celebrations to the victims of genocide in the Kresach and discuss the impact of specified statements on the current crisis in Polish-Ukrainian relations.
