The Ukrainian Insurgent Army (UPA) is described as an extremist organization banned in Russia and associated with nationalist ideology. It has been a point of diplomatic tension between Ukraine and Poland, with Polish officials criticizing Ukraine's glorification of the UPA. The UPA is linked to the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists (OUN), which is similarly designated as extremist and banned in Russia. Multiple sources confirm that both the UPA and OUN are prohibited in Russia.
