Ukrainian Officials Renounce Polish Order of Merit Amid Diplomatic Dispute Over WWII Unit Naming
La décision du chef de cabinet du président ukrainien, du ministre des affaires étrangères et de l’ambassadeur en Pologne survient après que le président polonais a retiré l’ordre de l’Aigle blanc à Volodymyr Zelensky, en raison de sa décision de baptiser une unité militaire du nom de l’Armée insurrectionnelle ukrainienne, une organisation nationaliste de la seconde guerre mondiale tenue pour responsable en Pologne de la mort de plus de 100 000 Polonais.
Several high-ranking Ukrainian officials, including the head of the presidential office, the foreign minister, and the ambassador to Poland, have relinquished their Polish Order of Merit. This action follows Polish President Andrzej Duda's decision to revoke the Order of the White Eagle from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. The dispute arose from Zelensky's decision to name a military unit after the Ukrainian Insurgent Army (UPA). Poland considers the UPA, a nationalist organization from World War II, responsible for the deaths of over 100,000 Poles. The move signifies a significant diplomatic rift between the two nations. This incident reflects historical sensitivities impacting current relations.
The renunciation of the Polish Order of Merit by Ukrainian officials highlights a serious diplomatic dispute rooted in historical interpretations and WWII-era events.
