The Soviet regime turned out to be brutal, starving millions of Ukrainians during the Holodomor of 1932-1933. This tragic period in Ukraine's history is known as genocide aimed at the destruction of the Ukrainian nation.
Day of Remembrance and Modern Context
Every year on the fourth Saturday of November, Ukraine honors the memory of the victims of famines caused by the Soviet regime in 1921-1923 and 1946-1947. In our time, Russia continues its criminal policy towards Ukraine, violating national and global food security.
'The evils of the past return, creating problems in our society. We need to recognize the Holodomor as genocide and demand accountability from Russia for the crimes committed against the Ukrainian people.'
The moment of the Holodomor in Ukraine remains an important part of the country's history, and contemporary events prove that the memory of these tragedies must not be forgotten or minimized. The remembrance of the Holodomor serves as a reminder of the importance of maintaining national memory and fighting against the impunity of committed crimes.
