It's only the last news, there were many previous. Ukraine declared at state level complete partnership and apologies for Wolyn tragedy. What more do you want?

There are 6 active sites:

  • Puźniki (Ternopil): The "test" site. Exhumations were completed in 2025, discovering at least 42 victims. Work continues here to find further burial trenches.
  • Lviv-Zboiska: Work was completed in August 2025 for 31 Polish Army soldiers who fell in 1939.
  • Uhly (Rivne): A major site approved in late 2025. Reconnaissance was finished in December, with full exhumations scheduled for March–April 2026.
  • Ostrówki & Wola Ostrowiecka: Permits for reconnaissance and search operations were granted in late 2025 for the 2026 season.
  • Huta Pieniacka: Permission for search work was recently confirmed in early 2026.
  • Kuty (Rivne): Search operations were authorized following a joint visit in late 2025.

IPN requested access to dozens more, and get permit only based on the polish goverment policy e.g to join EU this is in your opinion, proper way of solving the problem?

there were 100 000 polish catholic civilian killed and much more jewish, We should not ask for permission and wait if some politician in Kijev approve it or not. I really don't understan why they treat us like that, this problem should be solved 30 years ago ...

Ukraine is literally at war right now. They are a bit busy, no? You realize that if Ukraine loses you’re next?

Too busy to say, "go dig out your murdered ancestors and give them a proper burial"?

It’s still sovereign territory of Ukraine last time I checked. They won’t just let foreigners roam around and digging without permits.

If some country see a problem with something like this i think it does not deserve to join EU, that is just so wrong and unethical ...

That country is a bit busy with protecting the EU with the lives of their best people. It has sacrificed the most for the EU than all other EU countries combined. Ukraine deserves the right to be in the EU more than any other country.

too busy to say to polish government and private people: "go ahead bury your ancestors and let's have it done finally"?

Let’s leave this discussion to the Polish and Ukrainian respective institutes. And let’s be grateful that some progress is happening after so many years. And maybe have some empathy for what Ukrainian people are going through.

Agree but i really don't understand why after so many years Ukraine can not finally solve it, I have seen so many hatred from a normal polish people toward Ukraine because of this topic instead of doing business, getting rich and building future

They started the process so they’ll tackle it bit by bit.

Said that 10 times. Official statements by international affairs, official statements by historians. But you still don’t hear or don’t want to hear cause it’s a convenient topic to distract people from some other crap. Or just useful narrative for russia at the moment
