Since Russian wikipedian's might delete my comment, I will copy and paste it here, so everybody can read it: Holodomor = Genocide : It is sick to learn that Russia attempted to commit genocide over Ukrainian people by blocking food and letting innocent Ukrainian children starve. This reminds me of Serbs blocking convoys of food reaching Srebrenica, while Bosniak Muslim children starved, which ultimately ended in Srebrenica genocide. Holodomor was horrible, and I am convinced Soviet government is to blame. Ukrainian people are nice people and I am sorry for their loss. Recently, Russian extremists vandalized Holodomor exhibit in Moscow... and everything was caught on tape. I wonder, what it will take for the two least civilized countries (Russia and Serbia) to decontaminate themselves from hatred, nationalism, and racism and start believing in universal human rights?

Thenew agreements between the UN and other countries should not be used as political by the US or Russia, but this seems to be the apper.

Velychezne spasybi tobi! The stories you translated are a piece of history untaught for almost six decades. They were whispered and suppressed. They still haven’t come alive to millions of Ukrainians, many of them the sons and daughters of Holodomor survivors. My grandfather was on the verge of starving at Izyum, Kharkivska Oblast. Had his brother, who worked at the railroad station and received food rations, not saved him, I wouldn’t have been born. We owe it to the victims, we owe it to the survivors, we owe it to ourselves, and we owe it to our future generations to always remember this terrible tragedy and to never repeat it again.

There is no doubt in my mind that communists wanted to destroy Ukrainian people through policies of famine. I am glad that Ukrainian people finally have their independent state so they can celebrate their unique culture, language, and history without oppression and interference from Moscow. Thank you for letting the world know about this horrible event in human history.
