Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk has said that it is up to Ukraine to resolve tensions in Polish-Ukrainian relations following the decision to name a Special Operations Forces unit after the Heroes of the UPA. [The UPA, or Ukrainian Insurgent Army, was a nationalist paramilitary organisation that fought for Ukrainian independence during and after World War II, primarily against Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union – ed.]

Details: Tusk described the situation as "an entirely unnecessary conflict over historical interpretations".

Quote: "The Ukrainian side created this problem itself, so now it should look for a solution. My people are currently in talks with Mr Budanov, the head of President Zelenskyy's office [...]. All the responsibility now lies with the Ukrainian side to somehow resolve this entirely unnecessary conflict over historical interpretations."
