The Metropolitan Andrey Sheptytsky in Documents of Soviet State Security Bodies (1939-1944).

"When at the beginning of the 20^th century the question about the historical choice of the Ukrainian people arose, when, according to Mykola Chubaty, it was necessary to re-educate the nation, to teach it to think constructively, the Divine Providence provided the country with Andrey Sheptytsky as the spiritual leader. And he, the head of Greek Catholics, set it as his objective to bring the whole Ukrainian community from the state of provincial surviving to wide, world significance paths, to highlight the sense of its existence as a separate nation obliged to promote the western tradition in the East of Europe..."
