Poland-Ukraine history row escalates

Kiev [Ukraine] / Warsaw [Poland], June 24: Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is not expected to travel to a reconstruction conference in the Polish port city of Gdansk due to an escalating historical dispute with Poland. Deputy Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko announced on Telegram that she would lead the Ukrainian delegation at the conference.
Ukraine and Poland are close allies in the face of Russia's war but have fallen out over a dispute about their difficult shared history. Zelensky named a military unit after the fighters of the Ukrainian Insurgent Army (UPA) during World War II. The UPA murdered tens of thousands of Poles in what is now western Ukraine under German occupation, and the decision to honour them provoked widespread outrage in Warsaw.
