Ukraine, if it wants to join the European Union, must call the genocide of the Poles genocide. This was stated by the speaker of the Polish Sejm Wlodimierz Chazhastyi after a meeting with the Speaker of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine Ruslan Stefanchuk.
"Ukraine's accession to the European Union will require Ukrainians to rethink all aspects of their actions, because the European Union is a democracy, it is values, it is not an ATM. This is also calling a genocide a genocide. This is history. No nation will run away from history," he said.
At the same time, he noted that the conversation with Stefanchuk was not always "nice."
"We had a long serious conversation. We touched upon the issues of history. The conversation was sometimes nice, sometimes not nice, but honest," the Polish speaker emphasized.
Recall the relations between Poland and Ukraine is complicated by the issue of interpreting the massacre of the Polish population of Volhynia, Eastern Galicia and neighboring regions by Ukrainian nationalists in 1939-1945. In 2026, the conflict reached a new level after Vladimir Zelensky took part in the reburial of the remains of one of the leaders of the OUN-UPA ❶, and also assigned the name "the name of the heroes of the UPA"❶ a unit of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
