About UPA - Ukrains'ka Povstans'ka Armiia (Ukrainian Insurgent Army). |
The UPA has been found on October 14, 1942 by the decision of political leaders of OUN to protect the civil population of Ukraine, prosecuted by the German occupational authorities. Roman Shuhevych (pseudonym Taras Chuprynka) was the Commander-in-Chief of the UPA from 1943 to 1950. Roman Shuhevych, who was a very gifted person, created an efficient and numerous military force that powerfully resisted the German and Soviet punitive forces.
The terrible consequences of the Soviet rule in Ukraine, starvations, repressions, terror in 1920 - 1941 in the Eastern Ukraine and the mass murders, tortures and quartering of people in the NKVD prisons in the Western Ukraine in 1939 - 1941 as well as a "peaceful" Hitler's policy, have finally embittered people against Germany and Moscow bolshevism.

The primary missions of the UPA were: struggle for Independence of Ukraine, protection of civil population from occupants and punitive forces (German Gestapo, Soviet NKVD and SMERS). Therefore almost all subdivisions of the UPA were concerned with a certain territory and the UPA was organized by the territorial principle.
The organization of the UPA was determined by its role of a national insurgent armed force fighting against occupants, by political conception of this struggle and its tactics.
