That article is not about the soviets not doing katyn. It specifically assumes katyn happened according to the official narrative and uses it as a point of comparison.
Since 2010 much more important evidence has come to the fore that casts the strongest doubt upon the “official version” of Katyn. In Volodymyr-Volyns’kiy, Ukraine, Polish and Ukrainian archaeologists found evidence that at least two Polish policemen believed to have been shot by the Soviets in April or May 1940 in or near Kalinin (now Tver’), Russia, were in fact murdered by the Germans and their Ukrainian Nationalist allies in the second half of 1941, after the fascist invasion of the USSR. This fact alone dismantles the “official” version of the “Katyn massacre” narrative. (5) The present writer has endeavored to describe and examine this new evidence and to explain just how it proves that the “official” version has to be false. (6)
These discoveries illustrate how corrupt the history around the “Katyn massacre” has become. The discovery of the badges of the two Polish policemen previously said to have been shot and buried sixteen months or more later and seven hundred miles away is by far the most important find at the Volodymyr-Volyns’kiy excavation. It is the most important development in the Katyn issue since the disclosure of the “forgery evidence” in October 2010. So why has it not received the publicity that it merits? Undoubtedly because powerful political forces in Poland and Ukraine do not want to publicize it - because it casts doubt on Soviet guilt.
No it isn’t. It’s specifically pointing to this new mass grave as an example of a reverse Katyn.
It is not necessary to lie here. No one here is going to start assuming the nazis were the real heroes of ww2, or that communism has no merits.
Volodymyr-Volyns’kiy is not a comparison to be drawn, but a part of the Katyn narrative; the badges of Josef Kuligowski and Ludwig Małowiejski were discovered in the mass graves, both Polish POWs transferred and claimed as victims of Katyn. But you’re right that it is not explicitly about Katyn, and upon further reading the “reverse” interpretation you made is correct. Sorry.
No. It’s discussing how Ukrainians are reframing nazi (And ukranian nationalist/nazi) crimes as Soviet crimes, not in specific reference to Katyn, but in reference to mass graves found in Ukraine.
Come on man. The Katyn massacre wasn’t a 1941 massacre committed against predominantly Jews in Volyn. Its off by a year, the entire country of Belarus, and an ethnic group.
I admit I was wrong and you go on to emphasize again that it’s about a massacre in Ukraine and not explicitly about Katyn, which I know and said. The connection I mentioned isn’t addressed, so I don’t know why you point out the disconnect in other areas as if this was in question?

There is at least a substantial connection.
Though yes, it is a different site

You.
