Today in village Задвір'я (Ukraine) Polish and Ukrainian delegations commemorated a battle which took place 90 years ago. Army of advancing Russian bolshewiks led by Budionny was temporarily held back by 318 students, among which were Polish, Ukrainians and Jews, - said prof. Andzej Kszysztof Kunert. Tadeusz KszÄ…stek said that this battle was considered as Polish Thermopiles for many decades now. Under Soviet regime the cemetary at that place was destroyed and the sign stuccoed over. Vice-marszalek of Polish Sejm Marek Kuchcinski said that this is outstanding the way Ukrainian and Polish sides cooperate to commemorate the fallen of the neighboring country. Myron Jankiw, vice-president of L'viv regional state administration (ODA), "Ukrainians can relate to the battle as we also commemorate the battle of Kruty, which took place in 1918 and where 300-400 students took defense of Kiev against Russian army of Muraviov".

Yehh.. They forgot many things. But some things keep on living no matter what. And nowadays they are remembered and I am happy that both Ukrainian and Polish sides came together to bring flowers to the grave of the fallen.

Nat, may I play your role at least once? :) Some kind of Russian Nathan? Huh?! Just keeping in mind how honorably you gave a translation of some Russian poster. :)

I found really amusing Ukrainian nazi's (a certain "Bandera") comments of about your ilk yet with lower manners in the link you gave us.

English:

Mazurskie remnants, the coming to you is to dilo.Ty Number, Psheku noisome, you hnoyku smerdyachyy, you have no moral right rozsuzhdaty on Ukrainian liberation zmahanMy fought on their land for sviyi interest, and you invaders. We beat you, and persecute from our land to the last Psheka!. For your time has passed, and you nazavzhdy.A Hnoykiv, which our grandfathers not dobyly-Sich Riflemen in borodbi for WUPR, and our parents Banderists 40-50-x years we you Hnoykiv stinking day "yemo moralno.Hybayte nahren to its pshetsiyi stinks and we are here in our day St mint Independence, and from you including.

-If you want hnoyku, communicate with Ukrainian, he initially explored the Ukrainian language, ane zasmorodzhuy broadcast its snout ... Mazurskie Spirit Bandera, especially against you Hnoyki Mazurskie,-not dead, not in zahyne.Zdryhaysya kashmarnomu dream of one opinion prytenziyi on Ukrainian zemli.Duh Bandera will always be near you, hnoyku noisome. "

Now a question... Don't you understand how lonely you are?

BB that's about the same as to learn about the world via "Prawda" in the SU.

I knew you will find something interesting for your russian inquisitive mind. But could you be more diligent with translation: I bet neither English, nor Polish, nor Ukrainian will be able to understand the original, nor your "English" version of it ;) Also I don't see how quoting some deranged dialogue, posted under the article I provided, has anything to do with commemoration of the fallen students by both nations.

Now a question... Don't you understand how lonely you are?

When I am talking to you, I fully understand it, I have to agree.

When will the ukrainian side bring flowers to the polish victim of ukrainian "freedom fighters" from UPA?

The time will come and both sides will put flowers to the victims of their armies: UPA - to Polish, AK and AL - to Ukrainian. But if you are so interested in making sure it will never happen, keep on doing your dirty job.

BB that's about the same as to learn about the world via "Prawda" in the SU.

Ukrainian media, even though under recent pressure of the new president to curb it and limit its freedom, has high reliability and trustworthiness than any Russian newspaper controlled by Putin and his authoritarian KGB clique. It is pitty and I hope that your country will get out of this control BS as well as mine won't degrade into it.
