The Head of the Ukrainian Institute of National Memory took part in the international commemorations honoring the victims of the Ukrainian-Polish conflict during World War II
The participants took part in a memorial service at the Catholic cemetery, organized by the Lutsk Diocese of the Catholic Church. After the service, a ceremony was held to lay flowers at the memorial cross as a sign of respect for the victims of the tragic events.
“I came here to join in paying tribute, honoring, and commemorating those who shed their blood through a martyr’s death. But we are here today to remember and to issue a warning so that such an experience between the Polish and Ukrainian peoples will never be repeated,” said Polish Defense Minister Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz in his speech.
“Those were dramatic and tragic days when brother turned against brother. But we must be united by the fact that we have recognized the mistakes we made back then and understood that we must live for the sake of the future. When we speak of the tragic events in Volhynia in 1943, we acknowledge that these events took place and must be remembered, but they will also serve as a symbol for us that we will overcome our own past and move forward into the future,” said the head of the UINM
