Poland has criticized local authorities in Leopol, western Ukraine, for granting a new official recognition to the Ukrainian Insurgent Army (UPA) and its commander, Roman Shujévich. The UPA and its leadership are accused by Warsaw of committing historical massacres.
In response to the honors, the Polish government declared Sviatoslav Sheremeta, a regional government official from Leópolis involved in the recognition, persona non grata. Sheremeta has been formally banned from entering the Schengen area for a period of five years following the decision announced in October.
