Activities of the Sluzhby Bezbeky of the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists: Myths and Reality

Abstract

There are many myths surrounding the OUN-UPA, and in particular, the “Sluzhba Bezpeky”, both among Ukrainians and among Ukraine's neighbors. The activities of the OUN Security Service are often used to propagate and dehumanize insurgent movements on the territory of Ukraine. This research will rely solely on facts, which will allow an objective assessment of the activities of this secret service. This adds relevance to the work, for as an objective assessment, it can contribute to a constructive discussion both among Ukrainians and at the global level.
