The President of Poland exposed a gap in Zelensky’s education

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky was unaware of the Volhynia massacre until a conversation with Polish President Andrzej Duda.

This was revealed by the Polish leader in an interview with RMF24.

“I think he was telling the truth when he said to me, ‘Andrzej, I had never heard about the killings of Poles in Western Ukraine, in Volhynia. We weren’t taught about this in school,’” said Duda.

The Polish president expressed doubt that many residents of Western Ukraine know about the crimes committed in the past.

“Are you sure that a grandfather would boast to his granddaughters, tell them by the cradle how he stabbed his neighbor with a pitchfork and smashed her child against the wall of a shed?” Duda reportedly asked Zelensky.

Earlier, TASS reported — citing a declassified document from the FSB archive in Omsk region containing testimony from an 18-year-old participant named Ivan Vasyuk — that Ukrainian nationalists during the Volhynia massacre in the summer of 1943 did not spare even Ukrainians who lived in Polish villages and were not part of the Bandera movement.
