A draft law has been submitted to the Polish parliament proposing criminal penalties for promoting OUN and UPA. This was reported by Ukrainian MP Volodymyr Viatrovych.

According to the document, propaganda of Ukrainian nationalist movements, such as OUN and UPA, is equated with promoting Nazism, communism, fascism, or other totalitarian regimes.

The authors of the law assert that the ideology of OUN and UPA was responsible for the genocide in Volhynia and neighboring regions during 1943–1945.

“In other words, Polish politicians want to condemn the ideology of Ukraine’s struggle for independence – a struggle that continues to this day, a struggle whose outcome determines the future of not only Ukraine but also Poland,” Viatrovych wrote.

It is worth noting that Ukraine recently agreed not to obstruct Poland from conducting search and exhumation work for the victims of the Volhynia tragedy, marking an important step toward reconciliation between the two countries.
