[Natalia Pylypiuk <natalia.pylypiuk@ualberta.ca>]

Dear Hennadii and Colleagues in the American Association for Ukrainian Studies,

I have received the following request from Phillippe Frison and given

him a brief response with material available on the internet (please see

below).  Would those working on the 1920s and the Spilka

Vyzvolennja Ukrajiny be able to help Phillippe with more in-depth

material? 

(Phillipe, Hennadii was the Director of the National Archives of Ukraine.)

Many thanks,

Natalia Pylypiuk

Hello,

 

Could somebody on the list give me details on the "Union for the liberation of Ukraine", said to have been set up by the Austro-Hungarian ministery of Foreign Affairs?

 

Was it really re-established in the 1920?

 

Than you in advance
