A meeting took place in Warsaw on June 6, 2026, as tensions escalated between Poland and Ukraine regarding the Ukrainian Insurgent Army (UPA).

For Ukrainians, the UPA is seen as a symbol of their struggle for independence, while Poland accuses the group of committing genocide against Poles during the years 1943 to 1945.

The differing perspectives on the UPA have led to significant diplomatic friction, prompting officials from both countries to seek a resolution.
