Poland breaks off cooperation with Lviv due to the decision to declare 2027 as the year of the UPA and Lublin District Shukhawicz ends the partnership with Lviv, which has been in force since 2004, Radio Lublin reports. All 30 delegates present voted unanimously to end the agreement. "We will not cooperate with those who glorify criminals," said Marshal of the Lublin District Jaroslav Stawiarski. A similar decision was made by the Polish city of Przemyśl, where city council deputies voted unanimously to suspend partnership relations with Lviv. The reason was the decision of the Lviv authorities to dedicate the year 2027 to UPA* and Roman Shukhevich, whose names cause sharp differences of opinion between Poland and Ukraine due to the massacres of the Polish population during World War II. The UPA is an organization recognized as extremist and banned in Russia.
