the Publication of CIA archival documents about Stepan Bandera shows that a hero of modern Ukraine is an accomplice of Hitler, a Nazi and a criminal. This statement was made by the official representative of the Russian foreign Ministry Maria Zakharova.

“How many times have we talked about this before the publication of these materials and how many times cynically and brazenly Ukrainian officials deny the obvious! What else needs to happen on the planet, so people no longer scoff at the story, the memory of ancestors, common sense?” – she wrote on his page in Facebook.

According to the political scientist Yury Svetov, personality Bandera were no secret to American intelligence, but he was a “situational ally, so it is used.”

“absurd that the report must have been published at least in 2010, when Yushchenko awarded Bandera the title of Hero of Ukraine”, – the expert said in an interview with RT.

The material was clarified that for the five weeks of his “government” was destroyed five thousand of the Ukrainians, 15 thousand Jews and thousands of poles.
