‼️ ZELENSKYY: The Russian sky is becoming dangerous. Ukraine doesn't threaten civilian aviation or any civilian aircraft, but drones will be in Russia's skies. The Russian sky will de facto be closed. We are warning our partners. The safe moments in the skies of Russia are over.

If Zelenskyy's ratings were "in the toilet," where were everyone else's? Somewhere low enough that Zelenskyy was still the most popular politician in Ukraine. Let's also not forget that Zelenskyy is the one who brought Fedorov with him into the government to focus on projects like Diia.

... primarily given by local unit commanders, and no written global directive exists. In the Litopys volumes you referenced, the UPA's main enemies were Germans and Soviets. You can also find evidence that "it was not the desire of the OUN Leadership [...] to carry out ethnic cleansing in [Volyn]."

Screenshot of an excerpt from Litopys UPA: "During a discussion of the Polish question on 13 July, "Tur" noted that after the Ukrainian police in Volyn and Polissia joined the ranks of the OUN and UPA, the Germans created a Polish police force that together with the SS "applied harsh and inhumane means" against the Ukrainian population. He added that the Polish element in Volyn "completely paralyzed the UPA movement." Under these circumstances, Shukhevych emphasized, the Ukrainian population rose up against the Poles and "then the liquidation of the Polish population began in Volyn, which ended in the summer of 1943."
Thus, as Shukhevych's speech at the First Grand Assembly of the UHVR attests, the cause of the Polish-Ukrainian armed conflict in Volyn in 1943 was not the desire of the OUN Leadership, and particularly of Roman Shukhevych, to carry out ethnic cleansing in this region. Rather, it was sparked by the objective need to provide immediate protection for the local Ukrainian population from the actions of armed Polish elements (the Polish police and structures of the Armia Krajowa) and to create the necessary condition to develop UPA forces.
At the same time, Shukhevych insisted, the initiative to target Polish actions was coming from the local Ukrainian population. At this time UPA operations in Volyn and Polissia were overseen by "Klym Savur," who maintained a thoroughly independent position on many questions and did not always reckon with the opinions and plans of the OUN Leadership."

Unfounded catastrophizing - placing all blame on Zelenskyy and none on the country which used to subjugate Ukrainians. Relations with Poland are tense, but if Zelenskyy/Ukraine can sign defense contracts with Germany, it's possible to reconcile with Poland someday.
