A politician has stated that the Order of Prince Yaroslav the Wise will be donated to a museum in Chełm. This move is meant to provide an additional impetus for contemplation on the Volhynian massacre.

The politician emphasized that if Ukraine's corrupt elite is unable to take this step on its own, he is willing to take on this responsibility. «If Ukraine's corrupt elite cannot, I will do it for them», - the politician said.

Context of the Volhynian Massacre

The Volhynian massacre was a mass killing of Poles carried out by Ukrainian nationalists in 1943. This event remains a subject of discussion and controversy between Ukraine and Poland.
