The exchange of genocides

Обмен геноцидами

The Verkhovna Rada, registered a draft resolution on the genocide of Ukrainians by poles, accepted the challenge thrown to her by the Polish Sejm. Let me remind you, the Polish Parliament recognized the Events in Volyn in 1943 and 1944 as genocide.

Skeletons, hanging mournfully in the closed pan-European closet long ago escaped to freedom.

The monument to the victims of the Volyn massacre in Warsaw, attended by Petro Poroshenko.

We, Russians, understand the resentment of Ukrainians on the poles like nobody’s business. And not because the charge of genocide is not quite correct — Volyn massacre was merely a response to years of bullying of the government of Jozef Pilsudski over the national minorities. Although we recognize that the answer was as you would say today, a disproportionately violent.

And not only because it is well know poles who prefer to discuss and condemn the aggression against their country, ignoring their own aggression against independent countries. For example, they are ready for decades to talk about the treacherous division of their country between Germany and the USSR in September 1939, but about their own participation in the same attack on Czechoslovakia the year before not want to hear.

Prefer not to remember the contract with a ten-year validity period of peace with Germany signed in 1934, but the dot has studied the Molotov – Ribbentrop Pact. Not willing to think about their own plans for war with the Soviet Union in company with Germany, the claims on Ukraine and the expansion of Poland to the Black sea coast. This struck phantom pains and the Imperial ambitions of the country cherishes still.

We all know and remember.

But remember also that Ukraine for almost half a decade is spreading throughout the world the lie about the famine in the early 30-ies of the last century. And distributes, I must say, successfully — already 24 countries have recognized the Holodomor as” genocide. The blame for which, according svidomo patriots, is to Russia — the successor to the USSR.

As recently as November, Andriy Parubiy read out a statement: “the Parliament appeals to the Nations of the world to recognize the Holodomor of 1932 – 1933 in Ukraine a genocide of the Ukrainian people”.

There is no doubt that the main purpose of these jumps on the bones, begun under Leonid Kuchma’s administration and continued under Viktor Yushchenko, is to shake down Russia. Otherwise, this tragedy sadly and quietly commemorated inside the country.

Now, the Ukrainians found themselves in our position. When it is impossible not to recognize the fact of death, but no desire to accept the blame for their deaths on themselves.

Now poles will be send around the world sidoli on the recognition of the genocide of poles by Ukrainians. And also will succeed. And svidomye nationalists are powerless to gnash their teeth because to abandon their heroes of Bandera and Shukhevych can’t — too far gone.

Recently it became known that the Americans had forbidden the poles to make the discussion of the Volyn massacre. Supposedly with the office of Andrzej Duda twice contacted the us Ambassador Paul Jones, spoke with presidential adviser for international Affairs Krzysztof Dersim. Jones insisted that Warsaw needs to abandon the intention to officially qualify as genocide the crimes committed by Ukrainian nationalists of the OUN-UPA in Volhynia during the Second world war.

I fully believe this is not the time to quarrel two vassals, when they will have to unite against the enemy of the United States. And the skeletons of 70 years ago may spoil relations between the allies from Eastern Europe.

But the poles suddenly disobeyed the owner let the Genie out of the bottle, and now mutual claims put bold cross on the Alliance Ukraine and Poland.

Most likely, impatient Polish demarche has one goal: to return Galicia to its former owners. If the UN recognize the Volyn massacre as genocide, then it may be a question of compensation — for example, areas because Ukraine has nothing else of value there. Unlike Russia, Ukraine has the right of veto in the UN security Council has not adequately resist the decision of the international community will not.

It would not have had nenke publicly renounce Bandera and Bandera as a national idea. And to join Russia is the only country that is able to prevent rejection of the Eastern Borderlands and their annexation to Poland.
