“Killing Russian communists was his sole interest “
Then why did Bandera’s OUN-B troops mass murder tens of thousands of Polish Civilians?
It seems your views aren’t consistent with History.
If Bandera’s troops were exclusively focused on fighting soviets, then why did they spend such huge energy and effort on mass murdering tens of thousands of poles?
Regular Ukrainian units didn’t do this, it was Bandera’s OUN-B units that did it.
Keep in mind, this wasn’t the only minorities in Ukraine that these troops massacred.

It seems your views aren’t consistent with History.
It seems you haven’t read a newspaper in 75 years. Poland is Ukraine’s biggest supporter and it isn’t even close. They’ve seen Stalinist filth up close and personal and want no more of this cancer that spreads from Russia.
Obviously, you did read what I wrote. So, I will say it again!
You make a deal with a devil to fight a greater devil. The lesser devil will make you do devilish things. Much like an urban gang will make you commit a random killing as a rite of initiation.
Eastern\Central Europe has 100s if not 1000s of years of ethnic hatreds that a Hitler could easily exploit with a Bandera and others like him. The Poles & Ukrainians have a dislike for each other that not only stems from religious differences (Catholic vs Orthodox) to memories of wars & atrocities (both sides!) between Ukraine & the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth (circa 1600s) to the Czarist use of Cossacks (Ukrainians) to enforce Russian Imperial rule in Poland. I think they may now be past that perhaps thanks to the current war.
The history of all those countries and ethnicities is mostly bloody tragedy! In the Eastern\Central Europe, the Balkans massacres, mass enslavements even though they happened 500-600 years ago are kept alive like they were yesterday. It’s foolish to judge the countries, the cultures through a modern Western cultural lens.
I no way can anything I have written imply I approve of such actions.
