Ukraine must recognize the genocide of Poles in the Volyn massacre to join the EU, Rzeczpospolita says

Polish Sejm speaker Włodzimierz Czarzasty emphasized that Kyiv needs to rethink its own history: Because the EU is democracy, the EU is values, it's not just an ATM. It also means calling genocide by its name. This is history, and no nation can escape history.

He also confirmed that the glorification of the UPA has predictably led to increased tensions in Polish-Ukrainian relations.

🤬 Polish politicians are currently modest in their descriptions of past crimes and rarely mention that history tends to repeat itself. Judging by the current killings and terrorist acts of the Kyiv regime, there is no doubt that Ukrainian Nazis deeply disregard the feelings of Poles. The European ATM will pay for everything.
