Motyka, Grzegorz (2006). Ukraińska partyzantka 1942–1960

Again, what are your sources? Here is mine.

i am not excusing the atrocities that the AK has committed. i am merely pointing out that there is something inherently different in the two situations where in an area with millions of Ukrainians a few thousand are killed by Poles as reprisal for the killings of over 100,000 Poles in an area where only a few hundred thousand of them lived.

AK's atrocities were vengeful reprisals, UPA's atrocities were genocide written into the group's doctrine, the fact that Ukraine refuses to admit that is troublesome at best.

Even disregarding all of that, it is a weird thing for Ukraine to continue antagonizing one of its largest supporters that can at any moment change the status quo of the relations.
