Im Kontext der aktuellen Ereignisse und der Anzahl der Polen, die offenbar den Wunsch verspüren, sich für das den Polen angetane Unrecht zu revanchieren, halte ich es für eine gute Idee, sich an das Gute, die Hilfe und die Opferbereitschaft der guten Menschen in der Ukraine zu erinnern. Menschen, die gegen die Gräueltaten gekämpft haben, die ihren polnischen Nachbarn zugefügt wurden.

Can we see any monuments or other forms of commemoration of these rightous Ukrainians on the territory of the Ukrainian state? Just kidding. There aren’t any.
As a history grad, I appreciate the effort and good gesture
Too bad the Ukraine state forgets about these true heroes whilst it embraces the traitors that sided with the Nazis.
I mean that was promoted for a long time on polish sites that were telling about Volhynia genocide

Or here in the English side of the site

I meaneven the book with over 1300 of „Ukrainian Righteous“ is from 2007
And it’s not just a list of names – but with accounts how they helped (or tried to help) other people survive the massacres – and mentioned which were murdered for that (or tortured and killed)
Edit: I see that even these names are from this book
Persecuted or murdered by whom, hmmm?
According to some sources based on raports of germans stationed at ukraine at the time, the most vicious acts comitted by UPA were against their own people that refused to participate in slaughters.
