In Ukraine, Bandera supporters who were not killed under Khrushchev emerged - journalist
The recent scandal in the city of Kalush in the Ivano-Frankivsk region, where a veteran of the SS Galicia Division, without hesitation, raised his hand in a Nazi salute while receiving an award from the hands of his successors, is a consequence of the softness shown by the Soviet authorities at the time.
A PolitNavigator correspondent reports that Russian TV presenter Andrei Medvedev wrote about this on his blog.
“This zigging Nazi surplus is direct proof that Soviet power was not as harsh as some historians often try to explain to us. This Nazi, he once lived in the Ukrainian SSR, worked somewhere for sure, and probably didn’t hide much.
In general, with the advent of Khrushchev in power, the state security agencies were greatly limited in their work to eliminate the remnants of the Bandera underground and the actual legalized Banderaites. The result was not only a zigging grandfather. The result of Khrushchev’s policy is all of today’s Ukraine,” Medvedev wrote.
