The decision of the Lviv Circuit Council to establish the 2027 year of the Ukrainian Insurgency Army, its commander [Roman Shuchewycz](https://defence24.pl/war-na-ukrainie-report-special-defence24/budanov-in-one-ration-conflict-about-history-is-inescapable) and the activist of the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists Oleh Oljerski caused a sharp reaction in Poland. The initiative was followed by Swiatosław Szereta, a politician who has been active in Ukrainian memory policy for years, who had previously been in conflict with the Polish authorities on the search and exhumation of [Polish victims](https://defence24.pl/defence-defence/national-view-media-time-friendly-roasting-i-pgz-wrocic-sub-supervising-mon). However, the case is not simply a consequence of the action of 1 councillor. It besides shows how profoundly deeply rooted in parts of Ukrainian political circles is the communicative depicting UPA [primarily](https://defence24.pl/geopolityka/budanov- will come-to-warszaw-se-se-z-kosiniak-kamish-and-a-defence) as an independent formation, without the work of its structures for crimes against the Polish civilian population.
