Poland Recalls Top Honor from Zelenskyy Over UPA Unit Naming, Sparking Diplomatic Row
Διπλωματική κρίση απειλεί να ξεσπάσει ανάμεσα σε Πολωνία και Ουκρανία, μετά την απόφαση του προέδρου της Πολωνίας Κάρολ Ναβρότσκι να αφαιρέσει από τον Ουκρανό ομόλογό του, Βολοντίμιρ Ζελένσκι , την ανώτατη τιμητική διάκριση της χώρας. Η κίνηση αυτή ήρθε ως αντίδραση στη μετονομασία ουκρανικής στρατιωτικής μονάδας σε «Ήρωες του Ουκρανικού Επαναστατικού Στρατού (UPA)» – οργάνωση που ευθύνεται για σφαγές Πολωνών κατά τον Β΄ Παγκόσμιο Πόλεμο. Η απόφαση του Ναβρότσκι λαμβάνεται λί
Poland's President Andrzej Duda has decided to revoke the Order of the White Eagle, the country's highest state honor, from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. This action follows Zelenskyy's approval of renaming a military unit after the Ukrainian Insurgent Army (UPA), an organization historically linked to the massacre of Poles during World War II. Duda stated that for the majority of Polish society, the UPA represents an organization responsible for brutal crimes against Polish civilians. The revocation is considered a significant symbolic move that could further strain relations between the two nations, especially ahead of a planned reconstruction conference for Ukraine in Gdansk. Ukraine's Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba described the decision as a 'strategic mistake' that benefits Moscow.
This diplomatic dispute highlights the deep historical sensitivities impacting current relations between Poland and Ukraine, potentially affecting crucial support for Ukraine amidst the ongoing conflict.
