Holodomor in Ukraine
Let us remind you that every year Ukrainians traditionally honor the memory of the victims of the Holodomor of 1932-1933 on the last Saturday of November. This year it was November 25th. In 2023, it was already the 90th anniversary of the Soviet genocide against the Ukrainian people.
The Holodomor of 1932-1933 is considered one of the most tragic events in the history of Ukraine. The artificial famine provoked by the Soviet government against the Ukrainian people led to the deaths of millions of people. According to historians, about 7 million people died as a result of the Holodomor.
Today, more than 30 states in the United States have recognized the Holodomor as genocide of Ukrainians. This decision was also joined by a number of European parliaments, which adopted this recognition at the national level.
