Ukraine wasn’t a nation in WW2. It was part of Russia.
And I don’t doubt a lot of Russians from the Ukraine did horrible things.
Russia did a lot of horrible things. They killed millions of people including millions of Russians.
Russia has a long history of brutality. They rape, they murder and that continues today.

I urge you to rethink that statement and read this

OUN's denials of its role in the Holocaust began in 1943 after it became obvious that Germany would lose the war. In October 1943, OUN issued instructions for preparation of materials that would suggest that Germans and Poles bore responsibility for anti-Jewish violence. Further, OUN wanted to spread disinformation that Lviv's Jewish council blamed Ukrainians for the pogroms only because it was under pressure from Germans to do so. The tone of OUN's leaflets and proclamations also changed, omitting the explicit anti-semitic references which they had previously contained

OUN's were Ukrainian nationalists

The Ukrainians in WW2 operated much like an independent state. It was a part of the soviet union, but many Ukrainians joined the nazi death squads. There are quite a few documentary series that detail this. On American Heroes channel check out the episodes regarding Ukraine on "Nazi Death Squads".
