Edition Kresy stated that in Poland, the laying of a wreath at the memorial with the flag of the UPA (an extremist organization banned in Russia) by Deputy Prime Minister Mariusz Blaszczak caused indignation.
Recall that Blaschak visited Kyiv at the end of last week. The press service of the Polish Ministry of Defense published a photo from that event. In one of the photographs taken during the laying of a wreath at the memorial to the fallen Ukrainian soldiers, Blaschak is depicted kneeling in front of a fragment of the memorial. In the frame, at the same time, there was a graffiti painted on it with the flag of the UPA (an extremist organization banned in Russia).
Among the Poles, according to the publication, this photo caused a strong reaction. In particular, on social networks, local residents were outraged by the posting of this picture and the lack of comments from the authorities. The picture was later removed.
