So, apparently, for many Ukrainians, the Volhynia Massacre is just a "local episode" in history. Kind of like that time I found a year-old pizza slice in the back of my fridge – not a big deal, just an interesting little chapter of my culinary history.
Ołeksandr Ałfiorow thinks that agreeing on exhumations and a joint congress of historians will help ease the tension around this painful topic. I mean, who wouldn't feel better after digging up some bones and hashing out history over coffee, right?
Maybe next, we can have a historical potluck where everyone brings their version of events. Who’s bringing the potato salad?
What are your thoughts? Does discussing painful history help, or does it just add more ingredients to the drama soup?
