That, however, puts them on a par with the criminal regimes of Joseph Stalin and Adolf Hitler. The author of this article describes the genocide of Polish inhabitants in Volhynia and Eastern Galicia committed by the Organisation of Ukrainian Nationalists (Orhanizatsiya Ukrayins’kykh Natsionalistiv, OUN) and the Ukrainian Insurgent Army (Ukrainska Povstanska Armiya, UPA) between 1943 and 1944. These events in European history are not well-known.enAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Polandhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/pl/genocideVolhyniaEastern GaliciaUkrainian nationalistsUkrainian Insurgent Armynationalismhistoryde-polonizationludobójstwoWołyńGalicja Wschodnianarodowcy ukraińscyUkraińska Powstańcza ArmiaUkrainska Povstanska ArmiyaUPAnacjonalizmhistoriadepolonizacjaArticle
