I have no more love of totalitarian Nazi tyranny than I have of totalitarian Soviet tyranny. Few countries that experienced either, do. And those unfortunate handful of countries that experienced BOTH certainly have no love of either. Russia would do well not to assume that anyone who fought against Soviet tyranny therefore fought for Nazi tyranny, as that would be a most unrealistic assessment. In any case, as Russia often tells us, it was not, and is not, the Soviet Union. Therefore why Russia should get sensitive about those who resisted Soviet tyranny is a mystery.

What a bunch of Soviet/Russian false propoganda. You can't even pronounce the cities of Lviv and Kyiv correctly, in Ukrainian, not in Russian: Lvov and Kiev. You can't find Ukrainian speakers to interview either; only Russian speakers. Yes, in spite centuries of oppression and millions of murders (including 7 to 10 millions by man-made starvation 75 years ago) at the hands of the Russians, Ukrainians kept fighting for freedom. The volunteers who joined the German-sponsored division were hoping to transform it into a national army of liberation against both the Germans and the Russians. Some remnants continued fighting the Russian terror into the 1950s as part of the legendary UPA, which did fight both the Germans and Russians during WWII.

Estonians, Latvians, Polish and Ukrainians have been turned to Nazis by the American propaganda. UPA Ukrayinska Povstanska Armiya was a nationalist armed group having a black - red flag and is different than the nazi division made by the Germans having the svastica flag. Their leader, Stefan Bandera, (Very strange: A Ukrainian with a ... Spanish name! A good reason for historical research.) has been arrested by the Nazis and sent to Aushwitz. I believe I don't have to explain how "nice" was that place. So, if the Nazis had any relation with UDP, that was ENMITY. The anti-Soviet actions of Bandera after WW2 resulted in his assasination in W. Germany by the great KGB that roamed at will in ALL the West! I disagree with Bandera and UDP, I believe Ukraine is part of Russia but I admit that they are heroes since they died for what they believed. Returning to the present, the U.S. propagandists did not choose the anti-Soviet UDP. They chose the Nazis. It was intentional and not a mistake. The US puppet Ukrainian government promotes facsism. My dear Marzipan6, none believes that "anti-Soviet equals pro-Nazi". RT and I say that someone is a Nazi because he IS a Nazi... Ergatis

Those who collaborated with the Nazi's were simple traitors to the Ukraine and all Slavic people.

What happened to the Polish population in Lviv during WW2? I'm led to understand that prior to the war, Poles comprised at least 40% of the city's population.
