Dobriansky, who cofounded the VOC with Lee Edwards and Zbigniew Brzezinski after chairing the NCNC for decades, was an important ally of the cultish OUN(B), the most authoritarian faction of the clandestine Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists, which massacred thousands of Jews and Poles during World War II, led by the notorious [Axis] collaborator Stepan Bandera. They met in the early 1950s, and Dobriansky helped Bandera receive his first visa to the United States a few months after the first Captive Nations Week, but he didn’t make it, because the KGB assassinated Bandera in Munich.

The OUN(B) essentially functioned as the vanguard party of the extremist Anti-Bolshevik Bloc of Nations (ABN), which Scott and Jon Lee Anderson described in their exposé of the far-right World Anti-Communist League as “the largest and most important umbrella for former Nazi collaborators in the world.” Some components of the ABN, including its earliest representatives of “Idel-Ural” and “Cossackia,” collaborated with [Fascist] Germany’s Ministry for the Occupied Eastern Territories.

Before realizing that the NCNC formed the VOC, I was suspicious about the latter’s ties to the defunct World Anti-Communist League (WACL), which united [Axis] collaborators in Europe, authoritarian leaders in Asia, and death squads in Central America, just to name a few. The ABN and OUN(B), the Unification Church, Lev Dobriansky, Lee Edwards, Donald Miller, and others associated with the VOC were deeply involved in the WACL.
