For the Ukrainians, the Warren massacre completely saved the fate of the Ukrainians, and also eliminated the long-standing servility of the Ukrainian nation, making the Ukrainians turn to believe that democracy is garbage, and only fascist dictatorship can save everything.
This was the trigger for the Warren incident: in 1942, the Poles, seeing the Germans defeated under the city of Moscow, tried to rebuild Poland, bearing the brunt of the massacre of pro-German Ukrainians in places like Cheium, which the Nazis suppressed.
In October 1942, the Ukrainian police who were transferred back from the repressive forces saw that Nazi Germany had declined, so they launched a mutiny, attacked the local German troops to seize weapons, and formed the Ukrainian Resistance Army.
Although there are a lot of bad points in the film, for example, in 1941, the red and black flags that welcomed the German army to fight the UPA, and on the territory belonging to Melnick (Warren was controlled by Melnick at the time, he was Bandera's nemesis) shouted Ban Long live Della, Red Army guerrillas with Iron Cross, etc.
However, there is one detail, "Germany protects the Poles" is true, the UPA only met after the victory over the Germans on March 27, 1943 and decided to kill the Poles completely.
After that, the German rescue forces came to rescue the Poles three times in June, August and November. The first two ended in failure. The attack in November directly destroyed the regime of the Kolk Republic established by UPA, but it has also happened since then. After subtle changes, in early 1944, UPA commander Roman Schuchevich signed an agreement with Erich Koch, who represented Hitler, to restore the German-Ukrainian alliance, and the Polish police who served in the German army quit and established Poland. The 27th Division of the Home Army was later destroyed by Germany and Ukraine. After the Huta Peniatska incident on February 28, 1944, Nazi Germany also began to send troops to assist Ukraine to destroy the Poles, confiscating the self-defense weapons previously given to the Poles, and Ukrainians are allowed to keep all loot from Poles.
The film also mentions Polish revenge, and on this point, the Russian material is obviously different from that of the Poles. The
Russians often only mention "Polish revenge in 1944" as a warning.
The Poles, on the other hand, cited the information of the home army at that time to express that the war situation was extremely difficult at that time. At that time, the Poles in the Tucun battle no longer had the advantage they had in 1943, because the real situation was that since 1944, with the air support of the German army, the Ukrainian fascists had already fought. To the hinterland of Poland, and destroyed a large number of Polish home army strongholds, they killed 15,000 Poles in June alone, forced the Polish home army to make peace with it, (August 1944), and asked it to participate in the fight against the Nazi German army , but was rejected and took part in the outskirts of the Warsaw massacre, so don't be surprised why the Polish Home Army only rioted in Warsaw.
Ukrainian support for the Nazis caused the Soviet Union to tear up the agreement with the Poles to restore the 1921 borders (in July 1944, thanks to Petliura's lesson, the Ukrainians believed that no goal was important than the extermination of the Poles).
History has not passed. After the neo-Nazi uprising in Ukraine on January 21, 2014, several divisions of the neo-Nazis in the western region blocked the border with Poland and expelled the Poles on the border. When the Polish media came to explain, the
Nazis Leader Tarasenko threatened: Ukraine should go its own way instead of joining the EU. Poland still occupies a number of territories that belonged to Ukraine, including Przemysl and some counties. They have no right to rule and Ukraine should take back its own territory from Western countries. And the massacre of Poles by Ukrainian rebels in 1943 - this is nonsense.
And Tarashenko was only Dmitry Yarosh's deputy, and Yarosh directly mentioned in his book "Nation and Revolution": "Ukraine is a single nation state. However, the territory of this country is 15% of the ethnic minorities inhabit the top 15. When the Ukrainians take their own state power, those people will ask: what will happen to us? The answer is single and obvious, given by our forefathers, So it is a sacred dogma for us: non-Ukrainians, those who oppose the Ukrainian national liberation struggle, are public enemies of the Ukrainian nation, and they should be removed and wiped out without leaving a trace."
