I truly believe that we had enough wars and expatriations in previous century in Europe for a long, loooooong time. That's why Poland, Germany or any other country should NOT "claim" anything from others - even though it was not their independent decision in Yalta or Potsdam to look as they currently look. At the same time we should speak truth about our common history and take into account arguments of the other side, as well. In this manner we would consider fair Pilsudski's support for Ukrainian national aspirations by ataman SIMON PETLURA that unfortunately didn't win much of support among ethnic Ukrainians in 1919 and 1920 (check:
SIMON PETLURA for details ) Apart from Pilsudski's firm support for Ukrainian independence (
grab others land????) there was obviously an aggressive, irresponsible stance towards minorities by post-Pilsudski military governments. No question about that. Do you agree?

Sir the eastern border of Poland in 1939 was neaer Minsk and included the terrirory of western Ukraine with Lwow.
If it is "support" of ukranian independence when Pulsudskii or polish goverment after him kept ukraniand and bellorussian lands I then don't know what then is "deny".
If we all knwo that ukranian independence movement began from killing polish interior minister in 1935 or 36.
