Polish President Karol Nawrocki has stripped Ukraine’s Vladimir Zelensky of Poland’s highest state honor, the Order of the White Eagle, after Kiev named a military unit after a nationalist group implicated in the wartime massacres of Poles and Jews.

Nawrocki announced the decision in a video statement on X on Friday, saying that “historical truth is not and can never be a bargaining chip” and that “the memory of the victims is the moral duty of the Polish state.”

The move follows weeks of growing tensions between Warsaw and Kiev after Zelensky signed a decree in late May granting the honorary title “Heroes of the UPA” to the Special Operations Center North. The designation refers to the Ukrainian Insurgent Army (UPA), the armed wing of the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists (OUN). Zelensky said the measure was intended to revive the “historic traditions of the national army.”

Nawrocki said the decision crossed a red line, noting that for “the vast majority of Polish society,” the UPA remains synonymous with atrocities committed against Polish people during World War II. Poland officially recognizes the actions of the OUN and UPA as genocide.

“Facts are not subject to negotiation,” Nawrocki said, adding that they do not change with political expediency.

“The facts are that at least 100,000 Polish citizens were murdered by the UPA... only because they were Poles or Jews or other minorities,” he stated.

The Polish leader argued that naming a Ukrainian military unit after the UPA “has a meaning that goes far beyond the internal affairs of Ukraine” and described Kiev’s glorification of the group as “insulting, incomprehensible and deeply disappointing.”

The decision has drawn support from prominent Polish political figures. Former Prime Minister Leszek Miller called Zelensky’s decree “a spit in the face of Poles,” while former President Lech Walesa said it insulted “all murdered” Poles by honoring “UPA bandits.”

Zelenskiy's chief of staff renounces Polish medal amid WW2 dispute​

President Volodymyr Zelenskiy's chief of staff said on Saturday he was renouncing a Polish state medal after President Karol ‌Nawrocki stripped Zelensky of Poland's top honour over a historical dispute.
The move by Kyrylo Budanov threatens to deepen a diplomatic rift between the close strategic partners as Kyiv rallies allies to push ⁠Russia to end its war on Ukraine.

Nawrocki said on Friday he was revoking the Order of the White Eagle from Zelenskiy after he renamed a military unit in honour of World War Two-era Ukrainian insurgents blamed for massacring Poles.

Budanov said he was renouncing the Golden Officer's Cross of the Order ‌of ⁠Merit of the Republic of Poland, awarded to him last year, to protest against a move he described as "a gift" for Russia.
"Our nations have long-standing relations and ⁠different pages of history - both heroic and tragic," he posted on social media. "However, this should be an occasion ⁠for deep reflection, not crude political speculation."
Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha had earlier called Nawrocki's decision ⁠a "strategic error", and Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk, a Nawrocki opponent, urged both leaders to remain calm.

I don't care about anything except stripping Zelensky of awards. That shit will always be funny to me since he gets so mad when people refuse to fund his defense for him.
 
if zelensky played his cards right and dressed as ballerina, the liberals would say how brave he is and russians would just give in as they wouldn't want to live in such world where everyone thinks that's acceptable.

but zelensky doesn't think about long term perspective, 500+ years.

he just lives the moments between the lines.
Zelensky wishes he had as good fashion sense as Skoropadsky and Petliura.

Dressing in a certain way to show solidarity with the troops doesn't mean you have to wear a combat sweater all the time.
 
Polish and Finnish nationalists are both. Whiny nigger to your nationalist who constantly complain. About. Atrocities committed against them. The Finns will never stop being funny because at one point, two thirds of the Swedish Empire's army was. Made up of fins, but they had no choice but to serve the Swedish masters.
And Poland is one to talk that he committed plenty of atrocities against the Ukrainians. They're all a bunch of niggers. Be like the base Balkans and sing songs about how your neighbors a bunch of. Sand monkeys and you're going to ethnically cleanse them because this is rightfully insert X Balkan countries territory.
 
They did a bit more than fight against the Russians. They did unspeakable things to Polish people as well. This movie about the Volhynia massacres is good but tough viewing. Afterwards I looked up to see if two especially horrific moments could possibly be real. And they were.
Yeah but that's still not as bad as what the Russians have done to the Poles, or what the Russians have done to Ukraine, so... Both sides will get over this. Eventually. Maybe. They are Slavs after all, so their grudges are probably going to last until the heat death of the universe, but hey, they've got Russia to hate on to distract them and boy is that feeling mutual on the Russian part.

I'm honestly not sure it is. Not in the specifics. But regardless, If two brothers killed my kids or tortured me or anything else like that, and then the brothers started fighting, I wouldn't be rushing to give a medal to either of them.

Poland's praise of Western Ukraine is artificial and a result of efforts by the West to do extreme image rehabilitation and messaging for political purposes. What's also an interesting aspect in the film, mostly in the background, is watching the construction of a national identity happen in real time, much like with Israel, taking vague ethnic ties and building a national myth out of it. A process we're seeing continue with the removal of the Russian language from Ukraine now, Z-man learning Ukrainian and child indoctrination.




It's weird and unsettling to see this deliberate action tracing right back from 1940s to politically build an identity. If this is pulled off then fifty years from now Ukraine will never have had ties to Russia, will always have been the true Rus and will have always spoken "Ukrainian".

Hebrew was a purely academic language not used in every day life until the Zionists basically resurrected it for political and ethnic identity purposes.

It's staggering how inorganic this is. Don't even get me started on Wikipedia.
 
While Zelensky made a controversial decision, appealing to Ukrainian nationalists makes sense since by their very ideological nature, they are some of the most willing to fight and die for the country.
Also because Banderites have threatened his life. He kinda has to appease them.

Not the first time a cultural identity has been deliberately built-up. "We have created Italy. Now, we must create the Italian people." Hell, the USA after achieving independence deliberately de-Anglicized its culture and language, switching to coffee instead of tea and when Noah Webster published his dictionary he intentionally chose to re-write many words away from the accepted English form at the time to create a uniquely American language.

Ethnogenesis can happen anytime, anywhere. It's just a matter of it works and if you can get people to believe in it.
 
Ethnogenesis can happen anytime, anywhere. It's just a matter of it works and if you can get people to believe in it.
And sufficiently stamp out awareness of historical facts that undermine it.

It doesn't happen frequently but it's no less unsettling to see it play out in your life time, knowing that there's a whole generation being brought up to believe that the events of your lifetime didn't happen or ones you know didn't did.

The very powerful can build ethnic groups the same way you or I might build a house - investing into it, laying foundations, watching as it's slowly completed. One day, the Ukrainian people will have always existed, will have been the original Russians, and I will live to witness an etymologist hung in a town square for having said the language is a mish-mash of Polish, Russian and Lithuanian when we all know it was always the language of the distinct Ukrainian people.
 
Here's Winston Churchill visiting the White House in 1942. And he wore a "siren suit", in consolidation for the British homefront that was under German bombing:
Okay but Z-Man dresses like a hobo or a wine taster everywhere he goes, not just for the one-off symbolic meetings here and there.
 
Because his highly-paid image consultant said so.
Did this highly paid consultant not point out ot him that hitler was famous for wearing his army uniform as well during the war and making statements about he wouldn't take it off until he won or he would not survive the outcome? Lets not forget how that ended

For a guy who keeps trying to deny the whole nazi supporter thing he sure does do alot of things that mimic or outright support nazis
 
Ukranians are more retarded than Israelis deciding to film their warcrimes that they shoved 80 years of pop culture demonizing as what nazis did and that it was evil and wrong...

"uuuh actually they need to cater to nazis because they need to fight for the motherland and shit"
This is retarded, if 2000 men won't fight for their wives and daughters not being assraped or for their village because muh politics, they deserve to be shot, not praised.

Ukraine is managing to the miracle of pissing the poles in the war against russia, poles as we all know, have their entire existence basically predicated on slaughtering germans, russians and turks, the fact they somehow still have the gall to still somehow drag a 1943 butcher of Poles loser who got arrested by the SS for being too retarded as their national messiah,despite Poland giving most of their entire tank force, hundreds of thousands of guns, patriot missiles, allow them to fly drones over into st-petersburg, helped blow up the nordstream-2 which if germany had some balls, would have led to poland being kicked out of nato for attacking a ally, and hundreds of billions of euros, when you're losing a fucking existential war and need any allies, is peak jew behavior, i guess Ukranians regret voting a fucking comedian into office as a joke (Yes really, zelensky ran as a joke protest vote candidate, and he somehow fucking won, imagine American being ran by some SNL host).
