Volodymyr Zelensky, Polish Government
Ukraine, Poland
June 7, 2026
"President Zelensky signed a decree naming a military unit after the UPA, a WWII-era militia. The UPA is infamous in Poland for massacres of ethnic Poles and Jews during WWII. Polish officials and public figures have strongly condemned the move, calling it a glorification of genocide."
