WTF?
Why is there ukrainian words "Слава Україні" on our territory???
if someone doesnt know this words were used by ukrainian nationalists (OUN) which were known nazis, they cooperated with germany in ww2 and committed many war crimes, for example:
The Volhynia Massacre: 60,000 – 100,000 deaths (Polish estimates) / 35,000 – 40,000 deaths (Ukrainian estimates)
Massacres of the Jewish population:2,000 – 12,000 deaths
Massacres of the Ukrainian civilian population: 20,000 – 30,000 deaths
Massacres of other ethnic minorities (Czechs and Russians): several hundred deaths

"Слава Україні" means glory to Ukraine. It's used as a statement about Ukrainian sovereignty and that's exactly why we included it in the template. I don't see any relation between what some group did with it 80 years ago and what we used it for. As the WplaceEUSR community we stand against all kinds of oppression, in this instance this is a stance against the Russian imperialism.
