President Andrzej Duda recalled on Wednesday, in an interview with Robert Mazurek, a discussion about the Volyn massacre he had in Wisla with the president of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenski. “He said to me that this is simply a very hard problem for them after years,” he stressed.
— He's been asking me since I knew about the Volyn massacre. I said that I do not know, due to the fact that in communist Poland it was not officially mentioned. But I knew this subject, from my father’s materials, books from the second circulation, he described.
Andrzej Duda recalled the words of Volodymyr Zelenski, who stated that he had learned about it “in fact only by becoming president.” “ I went to school in a russian relationship, ” he said. I found out about Volyn erstwhile I was moving for president. In Ukraine, it is an issue that remains beyond any discussion," he quoted.
— I think 1 of the main problems is that no 1 wants to admit, “yes, my grandpa and my father and great-grandfather have committed genocide.” Nobody wants to say that, nobody wants to call themselves that,” said Andrzej Duda.
Andrzej Duda on talks with Volodymyr Zelenski on Volyn: I take work for this
The president stated in Channel Zero that “looking at it coolly”, he knows why Ukrainians refuse to admit it. “I have determined with Volodymyr Zelenski that we will take steps to make this subject no longer a origin for anger, memory injury,” he added.
— I was grateful to Volodymyr Zelenski for coming with me to Łuck to celebrate the victims of the Volyn massacre," said Andrzej Duda. “I am a man who is guided by the heart, reason and interest of Poland. In my opinion, the interest of Poland was that Russia should not occupy Ukraine. At first, no 1 but us helped Ukraine. Was I expected to put Ukraine on my knees and give them an ultimatum? I did not, and I take historical work for it,” he noted.
Andrzej Duda pointed out that even the lions at the Lwowski Orląt Cemetery were unveiled at his request. “I stood there, and I was thanked for our help,” he added.
