The '''Ukrainian Insurgent Army''' (also nicknamed '''UPA''') was a paramilitary group of Ukrainian [[Ultranationalism|ultranationalists]] during [[World War II]], serving as the armed wing of the [[Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists]] (OUN). The UPA had the purpose of achieving the independence of Ukraine, annexing parts of present-day Russia, Poland and Belarus, and during the war it fought against the Soviet Union, the Polish Underground State and [[Nazi Party|Nazi Germany]] (although at certain moments of the war the UPA would ally with the Nazis to confront the Soviets and Poles). After the war, the UPA would continue with its armed struggle, now against the Soviet Union and the recently established Polish People's Republic until 1956, the year in which it would be disbanded. | The '''Ukrainian Insurgent Army''' (also nicknamed '''UPA''') was a paramilitary group of Ukrainian [[Ultranationalism|ultranationalists]] during [[World War II]], serving as the armed wing of the [[Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists]] (OUN).
