Polish Foreign Minister Radosław Sikorski condemned Grzegorz Braun, leader of the far-right Confederation of the Polish Crown party, calling him 'a fascist' after Braun damaged a memorial to fighters of the Ukrainian Insurgent Army (UPA) in the village of Białystok. The incident underscores lingering historical tensions between Poland and Ukraine over the legacy of the UPA, which fought for Ukrainian independence during and after World War II, and comes amid otherwise close wartime cooperation between Warsaw and Kyiv.
