From a historical standpoint, points included in the spectators’ letter is a load of nonsense. Ukrainian nationalists did not fight “two totalitarianisms” — on the contrary, they had very actively, beginning with interwar period, cooperated with Germans. he “Legion of Ukrainian Nationalists”, commanded by Roman Suszka and coorganised by Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists, has taken part in the German invasion on Poland in 1939. Thus, Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists has participated in the war on the side of forces that started the Second World War. Afterwards, there were two Ukrainian batallions formed in Wehrmacht, under Abwehr: Nachtigal and Roland. Batallion Nachtigal was co-responsible for the barbaric slaughter of the Lwów universities’ professors in 1941, and the OUN activist have commited atrocious murders on Lwowian Jews at the very beginning of German occupation. Cooperating with Germans were few thousand Ukrainian police officers, comprised of fanatical OUN members. In 1943, to support Nazis on eastern front, SS Division “Galizien” has been created, which has commited crimes against civilian populace. The biggest of those crimes is the genocide of Polish population in Volhynia and Eastern Little Poland. Ukrainian hands have murdered 120 thousand Poles in the 1943-1945 period. Beastly murders were commited on whole Polish civilian population: women, children and the elderly. Victims’ property has been stolen; Polish villages razed to the ground. The terror of Ukrainian Insurgent Army has cause hundreds of thousands Poles to leave their homes, fleeing to central Poland. This genocide was so brutal, that today it is called Genocidium Atrox – terrible, cruel, barbaric genocide.
