President Karol Nawrocki: I have decided to revoke the Order of the White Eagle from the President of Ukraine

Historical truth is not, and can never be, a bargaining chip. Remembering the victims is a moral obligation of the Polish state.

Facts are not subject to negotiation; they do not change with political circumstances or necessities. The facts are that at least 100,000 Polish citizens were murdered by the UPA in Volhynia, Eastern Galicia, the Lublin region, and the Subcarpathian region, solely because they were Poles, Jews, or members of other minorities. It is a fact that the victims were residents of villages and small towns – entire families, women, children, and the elderly.

The Order of the White Eagle is not just an ordinary award. It is a symbol of the Republic of Poland’s highest trust. It signifies a special bond with the Polish state and the nation’s profound gratitude. Such a symbol requires not only merit but also respect for the values that form the foundation of our community.

Therefore, in light of President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s consent to name one of the units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine “Heroes of the UPA,” and after consulting with the Chapter, I have decided to revoke the Order of the White Eagle from the President of Ukraine.

 

Poland will not consent to the glorification of those who murdered defenseless Polish civilians.

The axe and the flail have gone into motion. Whole families are butchered and hanged, and Polish settlements are set on fire. The “hatchet men,” to their shame, butcher and hang defenceless women and children…. By such work Ukrainians not only do a favor for the SD [German security service], but also present themselves in the eyes of the world as barbarians. We must take into account that England will surely win this war, and it will treat these “hatchet men” and lynchers and incendiaries as agents in the service of Hitlerite cannibalism, not as honest fighters for their freedom, not as state-builders.

Villages were torched. Roman Catholic priests were axed or crucified. Churches were burned with all their parishioners. Isolated farms were attacked by gangs carrying pitchforks and kitchen knives. Throats were cut. Pregnant women were bayoneted. Children were cut in two. Men were ambushed in the field and led away.
