| description | The study is based on a source analysis (external criticism) of a modern icon of
Ukrainian nationalists, on which, under the Protection of the Virgin Mary, among other
historical figures, Greek Catholic metropolitans Andrei Sheptytsky and Joseph Slipyi
are depicted, as well as the leaders of the OUN-UPA (organizations recognized as
extremist in Russia and banned) Stepan Bandera and Roman Shukhevych. A historical
assessment of the activities and the presence of these figures who collaborated with
the German Nazis on the icon is given. The main emphasis is on the interaction of
the depicted «heroes» with the NSDAP, SS, SD and Gestapo, found guilty of crimes
against humanity by the International Military Tribunal. In addition to the image
itself, which became the reason for writing this article, the source for the study is the
forensic investigative documentation of the Soviet state security agencies, during
and after the end of the Great Patriotic War, interrogating captured employees of
the German special services, Ukrainian nationalists and witnesses to their war crimes.
The presence of specific common features in the biographies depicted on the icon
of Nazi criminals has been established. The author emphasizes that people who
publicly glorify Ukrainian nationalists through an icon are subject to Article 4 of the
International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination,
which requires states parties to the Convention to prosecute them. |
