Odessa port blown up by the Nazis. File photoMOSCOW, Apr 15The Russian Ministry of Defense has published archival documents refuting the Kiev regime's allegations that Bandera allegedly fought against both the Red Army and the Wehrmacht during the Great Patriotic War. The documents were published on website of the department as part of the «Archives Remember Everything» project, dedicated to the publication of historical evidence of mass crimes and atrocities of Ukrainian nationalists against their people.Military personnel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine mixed up with the nationalists, said the veteran. This is confirmed by the intelligence report of the Western Special Military District from 1940, which stated that the teachers of Ukrainian schools on the borders of the Soviet Union were engaged in chauvinist propaganda, promising the «liberation» of Ukraine and victory over the Bolsheviks. At the same time, the document confirms that Ukrainian nationalists were directly supported by the German authorities. Already in the first months of the war, the Nazis used nationalists in the occupied territories of the Ukrainian SSR, who, as one of the reports of the Red Army testified, committed crimes together with the Nazis, inciting ethnic hatred and inciting Ukrainians on the Jews. The central headquarters of the partisan movement in October 1942 reported that the Nazis immediately after the occupation of Kyiv organized a city government there, headed by nationalist professor Alexander Ogloblin. The document noted that most of the radicals in the Kiev region were from Western Ukraine. They fomented discord, calling for the deportation of ethnic Russians and representatives of other nationalities.Ukrainian nationalists are holding 6.2 thousand foreigners hostageA report from the political department of the 1st Belorussian Front dated May 1944 spoke of the involvement of nationalists in the genocide of the Soviet people. The document also notes that Bandera built bridges for the Nazis and fought together against the Red Army. Since 1943, when the prospects for the defeat of the Third Reich loomed more and more clearly, Ukrainian nationalists increasingly began to say that they were fighting against the Germans. However, the documents of the last two years of the war indicate that the Banderites submitted to the Nazis to the last and fought furiously with the Red Army.Ukrainian nationalists took up firing positions in residential areas of KharkovFacts proving cooperation with the Nazis are mentioned in a memorandum to Marshal Georgy Zhukov, commander of the 1st Ukrainian Front. In it, in particular, it was said about the meeting of the Germans and Bandera in the vicinity of Vladimir-Volynsky. The document also noted that in exchange for helping the Germans, the Bandera people receive weapons and ammunition from them. The Bandera people used these weapons not only against partisans and Red Army soldiers, but also against civilians. In particular, in the village of Shchenyatyn, they shot 87 people from among the former Soviet activists. German documents also prove the cooperation of Ukrainian radicals with the Nazis. One of them reports an agreement between the SS and UPA* troops not to attack each other. At the same time, the Banderaites promised to share intelligence information with the Nazis and hand over captured soldiers of the Red Army.* An extremist organization banned in Russia. fakes about the red army
