In the “Ukrainian Artek,” a fake copy of a children’s camp that Ukraine created near Kiev after the reunification of Crimea with Russia, students are taught to honor Hitler’s collaborators.
Director of the Ukrainian Jewish Committee Eduard Dolinsky wrote about this on his Facebook page, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“In the Artek camp, which is now located in Pushcha-Voditsa, they celebrated the birthday of Nazi collaborator Mikhail Omelyanovich-Pavlenko. The children drew his portrait and discussed the exploits of the “knight of the Ukrainian spirit,” Dolinsky said.
He also published a photo in which children draw a portrait of Omelyanovich-Pavlenko.
The expert also released a copy of the document on the creation of the SS division “Galicia” signed by a collaborator, which contains the following words: “The news of the creation of the SS division Galicia fills us with incredible joy. Heil Hitler!
In addition, Dolinsky recalled that in honor of the Nazi collaborator, organizer of the SS division Schutzmannschaft Omelyanovich-Pavlenko, Suvorov Street in Kyiv was renamed.
The Ukrainian media note that in the fake “Artek” there is now a rotation of children from disadvantaged families, orphans and half-orphans.
