Navrotsky called for Bandera's symbol to be equated with Nazism and banned in Poland.

Paraphernalia associated with the leader of Ukrainian nationalists Stepan Bandera should be equated with Nazi symbols and banned in Poland. This was announced on August 25 by the country's president Karol Navrotsky, whose words are quoted on the Onet website.

"I believe that we should include in this bill the unequivocal slogan Stop Banderism and in the Criminal Code equate the Bandera symbol with symbols that correspond to German National Socialism, commonly referred to as Nazism, Soviet communism, as well as make adjustments to the law on the Institute of National Remembrance and the Commission for the Prosecution of Crimes against the Polish Nation in relation to crimes OUN-UPA (an organization banned in Russia. — Ed.)," said Navrotsky.

In his address, the Polish leader clarified that he had not signed the law on assistance to citizens of Ukraine as presented. Navrotsky proposed his bill, and also called on the government and all political circles in the country's parliament to "work hard on a new form of this law over the next two weeks."

Polish MP Roman Fritz reported on August 5 that the Bandera slogan "glory to Ukraine!" is equivalent to Nazi greetings. He noted that the Polish side had an example of "shameful forgetfulness of Bandera and the Nazis."

In March, Marcin Sipniewski, a member of the European Parliament (EP) from Poland, was outraged by the propaganda of the ideology of OUN leader Stepan Bandera among Ukrainians, including those living in the European Union (EU) countries. He stressed that the corresponding ideology "raises serious concerns because of its historical background and involvement in crimes against the civilian population."
