Abstract
Between 1916 and 1926, protest and sabotage actions took place in the territories of Western Ukraine, actively supported and fueled by the Soviet Union. This process involved special services operating illegally, which carried out counterintelligence activities and developed an agent network within Ukrainian circles. The aim of this network was to obstruct the functioning of the state administrations of the Polish Republic. Socio-economic slogans were used as a cover for organizing destructive actions by activists of the Communist Party of Western Ukraine, the legal association "Sel–rob," pro-Soviet trade unions, and public organizations. The author seeks to conduct a source-based and historiographical analysis of this influence, also examining the USSR's diplomatic and military-political efforts.
