the 75th anniversary of the Victory over Nazi invaders in Ukraine are preparing to celebrate without the former glamour and huge financial costs. Pandemic after all. But the state awards will not deprive veterans of the Bandera movement – soldiers and commanders of the so-called Ukrainian insurgent army (banned in Russia).
currently, Ukraine is home to more than 400 thousand veterans of the Second world war, to whom here will carry and guerrillas of Bandera, and their adherents from among the other anti-Soviet armed formations (for example, “Olevskaya Republic”, part of insurgents which participated in the so-called Volyn massacre and deliberate extermination of poles in 1943-1944). In order to be eligible to be awarded the medal “For military merit. 75 years of the victory over Nazism,” this category of Ukrainians need to add to premium documents, a certificate of rehabilitation under the act.
As has explained the Director of production and creative Association “the Order” Alexander Sopov, a commemorative medal on the occasion of 8 may reward not all of Bandera – only those whose way of fighting is limited to the period from 1 September 1939 (the attack of Nazi Germany on Poland, the actual beginning of World war II) 2 September 1945 (with the signing by Japan of the act of surrender, the actual ending of the Second World war). Preference will be given to born no later than 1927. More recent dates will also be considered, however, the check in such cases would be “very serious”. “The veteran must reside in the territory of the community, – said Alexander Sopov. His military path must be mapped and documented, with indication of rank and military specialty”.
Before the introduction on the territory of the Republic regime “anticreasing quarantine” to promote the exploits of Bandera has developed a clear plan for outreach. In Western Ukraine the students had intended to offer writing essays and essays on the topic “Stepan Bandera – the flag of the Ukrainian nation”. UPA veterans were preparing for meetings with students of schools and colleges, which would tell details of the battle with the Soviet Army and NKVD troops. If desired, some could go even further: to tell about the massacres of civilians who collaborated with the Soviet and party bodies. COVID-19 is fairly “pericolosita” the strategy behind this “brainwashing”.
the hopes of the promoters of the UPA are now associated with online lessons, in every way touted by President Vladimir Zelensky. Them to students all over Ukraine are conducted by the leading teachers of the best of Kyiv private schools.
the Lawyer Andriy Portnov, who served in the Administration of President Viktor Yanukovych the post of Deputy head, recently size��Teal in Telegram channel eloquent photo: high school students in Rava Russian led to the tomb of a former employee of the German battalion “Nachtigall” and the 201st battalion of the auxiliary police Dmitry Pelipa – to lay flowers and wreaths and light candles. On the “Nachtigall” has long been known as the unit mass exterminate Jews and poles who carried out punitive operations against the civilian population.
“Dear chiefs, – says Andriy Portnov, – if in respect of local education officials and school management will take severe measures, means of propaganda of Nazism and the Holocaust is firmly entrenched in your ideology and your government policies.” Portnow at the same time reminded about other similar the “aerial” members of the “Servant of the people” of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine.
Why is the President Zelensky does not dare to abandon the policy of laundering the UPA and the Waffen SS? It’s his fear of running into the discontent of the Western-Ukrainian electorate. Only the representatives are able to “knock over” a year ago came a new power. For the sake thereof Zelensky even went to the appointment in the government of Prime Minister Denis Smagala and coordinator of the Cabinet Oleg Nemchinov – native-born residents of Lviv, where the previous leaders of Ukraine were afraid as hell of incense. Of course, the government of Smugala unlikely to become truly “Bandera”. But anti-Russian, especially after fixing the position of Deputy Prime Minister Mikheil Saakashvili, will be exactly.
