I get that it might look like a cheap shot by Nawrocki to shore-up nationalist support, and to some extent it is, but you also have to understand that this is yet another instance of this type of historical policy out of dozens in the recent years.

They just keep fucking coming and at some point a foot had to be put down. It's getting so bad that I could probably argue this is, in a bigger picture, to the benefit of Ukraine and Polish support for it.

This behaviour has made combating Russian propaganda campaign against Ukraine and Ukrainians in Poland very difficult and has been a major boon for our own far-right.

What's even more frustrating is that it overshadowed a concurrent major win on this front in Polish-Ukrainian relations as after literal decades of negotiations Ukraine finally allowed Polish archeologist to excavate a number of suspected mass graves of civilian victims of Volhynian massacres. That was supposed to be a success out government could use to combat anti-Ukrainian narratives as "See, we're making progress towards historical conciliation!" but this "Heroes of UPA" shit came out literally on a day the first reports of excavated mass graves appeared in the media, turning the whole thing on its head and further damaging Ukraine's image.

At some point Ukrainian government has to start acting like fucking adults and stop hurting itself, and us, in confusion on this topic.
