Volhynia. No statute of limitations | Remembering murder of Poles by Ukrainian fascists in WWII

On ‘Volhynian Bloody Sunday’, Ukrainian nationalists burned 99 Polish villages in Western Ukraine. It was the peak of the Volhynia Massacres, the mass murder of Poles by Ukrainian nationalists in 1943. In 2013, the Polish parliament adopted a resolution naming the Volhynia Massacre an ‘ethnic cleansing with signs of genocide’. It held the Organisation of Ukrainian Nationalists and the Ukrainian Insurgent Army responsible for the mass murder of over 100,000 Poles. In the meantime, the Ukrainian authorities erected statues of Stepan Bandera, leader of OUN (Organisation of Ukrainian Nationalists) and named him a national hero.
