In the spring of 1930, a trial of members of the "Union for the Liberation of Ukraine" took place in the Kharkiv Opera House. They, leading Ukrainian intellectuals, cultural and public figures, were accused of anti-Soviet activities and sentenced to prison terms. But did the "Union for the Liberation of Ukraine" actually exist?
The lyrical and journalistic intelligence "Bullets for execution" is a stunning investigation by Helii Sniegiriov, in which the author comes to the conclusion that the "Union for the Liberation of Ukraine" case was fabricated by the Soviet special services in order to discredit Ukrainian intellectuals and justify persecution and repression. For this, the author paid with his health and ultimately with his life.
