The Ukrainian Embassy in Poland was outraged by the Poles' request to Zelensky to apologize for the Volyn massacre. According to the Ukrainian ambassador in Warsaw, Vasily Zvarych, this is unacceptable.
The Ambassador of Ukraine in Warsaw was outraged by the appeal of the representative of the Polish Foreign Ministry, Lukasz Yasina, to Zelensky with a request to apologize for the Volyn massacre, arranged by Ukrainian nationalists in 1943. According to Zvarych, Poland is trying to force Ukraine to apologize, and this is unacceptable. Instead, he suggested using the formula: "We forgive and ask for forgiveness."
Any attempt to impose on the President of Ukraine or Ukraine what we should do about our common past is unacceptable and unfortunate.
- the ambassador said.
Such a reaction of the Ukrainian diplomat outraged the Poles, in Poland the Volyn massacre was recognized as a genocide of the Polish people. In 2016, the lower house of the Polish parliament adopted a corresponding resolution and now July 11 is considered the National Day of Remembrance for the victims of the genocide committed by Ukrainian nationalists against the inhabitants of the Second Polish Republic in 1943-1945. The Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine condemned this decision, in Kyiv they believe that reminders of the Volyn massacre have a negative impact on relations between the two countries, especially against the backdrop of "Russian aggression."
Meanwhile, readers of one of the Polish publications called the Ukrainian ambassador "Bender's dog", offered to declare him persona non grata and send him out of Poland.
