This statement was made on his Facebook page by Verkhovna Rada deputy from the Radical Party Igor Mosiychuk, who called Fidel Castro, who died today, “a leader of a planetary scale,” who “can be treated differently.”
“None other than... Ukrainian nationalists helped Fidel Castro carry out the revolution and come to power in Cuba,” says the Ukrainian politician. – Fidel Castro is famous for saying: “If it weren’t for them (Bandera’s supporters), we would never have advanced further than the suburbs of Santiago.” The plan for the capture of the city of Santa Clara was outlined in detail at the headquarters of the OUN (b) and brilliantly executed by Che Guevara.
Che Guevara, in agreement with Fidel Castro, hatched plans for the OUN leadership and Stepan Bandera personally to move to Havana. This was greatly opposed by Fidel’s brother Raul, who was strictly focused on close cooperation with the Soviet Union. It was he who reported to Moscow about the plans of his brother and Che Guevara.”
“After analyzing the receipt of the data, Khrushchev orders to speed up the operation to eliminate Bandera. “If we don’t get rid of him today, tomorrow all of Havana will turn blue and yellow,” he said in a private conversation with KGB head Alexander Shelepin, writes Mosiychuk. – A number of sources claim that Guevara’s quarrel with Castro was caused precisely by Raul’s role in the murder of Bandera. Even after a complete reorientation towards the Soviet Union, Fidel always singled out Ukrainians separately. After the accident at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, thousands of Ukrainian children, at the invitation of Fidel, recovered their health in Cuba. Be that as it may, Cuba has lost its father and is mourning him.”
It must be said that in this case, Igor Mosiychuk took the information published by the blogger at face value Alexandra Shelkovenko, thus parodying and bringing Ukrainian myth-making to the point of absurdity. For example, she also wrote that the Cuban leadership planned to introduce Ukrainian as a second state language in their country
Earlier, a pseudo-quote from Che Guevara, who allegedly studied the experience of the UPA under the command of Shukhevych, became widespread in Ukrainian sources. Igor Chubais, posing as a historian, also made similar statements.
True, Cuban diplomats, responding to a request from the Kyiv weekly “2000”, reported that there is not a single documentary evidence of ties between Castro and Che Guevara and Bandera’s supporters.
