The article is an attempt to examine the views and activity of the head of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church in Eastern Małopolska, the Metropolitan Andrey Sheptytsky, with respect to the Jews during the Holocaust. Sheptytsky’s figure is examined not only in the context of ambiguous and tense Ukrainian-Jewish relations, but also in the light of Ukrainian-Polish, Soviet-Ukrainian and Ukrainian-German relations. Sheptytsky’s views regarding the Jews were formed under various, sometimes contradictory influences. However, in comparison with the non-Jewish inhabitants of Nazi-occupied Europe, and in comparison with the position of the Orthodox Church, the Vatican and the Ukrainians, Sheptytsky’s speeches and his activities with respect to the Jews allow his inclusion among those felt responsible for their brothers’ fate.
