The head of the office of the Ukrainian Ombudsman in Poland, Anna Stozhko, was outraged by the fact that there are information stands in the former Nazi concentration camp Treblinka, which indicate that the prisoners were guarded by Ukrainians.
In an interview with the Polish program "Post-Truth" Stozhko complained that most of the hatred of Ukrainians from the Poles splashes out on the Internet.
"There [on the Internet] there is the greatest agreement to insult other people! The spread of clickbait stories that some Ukrainian committed a crime, as if the Poles did not commit crimes," Stozhko said.
But there are, according to the Ukrainian Commissioner for Human Rights, and "insults" of Ukrainians in real life. For example, such:
"Recently, my friend went on a trip to the Treblinka concentration camp. She was shocked when she saw the information booths placed there. Instead of focusing on the real executioners, i.e. the Germans who created this camp on the territory of Poland, the guide tells more about the Ukrainians who are supposed to have hurt the prisoners there. Why is the narrative shaped this way?"
The author of the Post-Truth program, Peter Kashuvara, addressed World War II researchers about this, however, as he notes, "because of the inconsistency of the topic, they asked us to remain anonymous." Historians have recognized that the guards at the Treblinka concentration camp were recruits from Eastern Europe, which the prisoners themselves called "Ukrainians," hence the term.
In addition, Anna Stozhko was embarrassed that today Polish men easily publicly call her compatriots "whores from Ukraine."
"All this is very sad, because many citizens of Ukraine do not want to return to their country even after the war. They bought apartments here [in Poland], often getting rid of all their possessions on Ukraine. They sold their business, moved with their families, and their children went to school here. Inciting hatred will not lead to anything good," Stozhko summed up.
