Victims of the famine
The Holodomor was a famine-genocide which struck the Ukraine from 1932 to 1933, killing 7,500,000 Ukrainians. The Holodomor was caused by the Soviet Union's Stalinist government stealing Ukrainian grain to be distributed to starving Russians during the 1932-1933 famine, as Stalin saw the Ukrainian people as counter-revolutionaries who deserved to starve to death. The Holodomor tragedy is labelled a genocide by several nations around the world, and it was one of the worst genocides in human history.
