The Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe unanimously recognized the Holodomor of 1932-1933 in Ukraine as genocide of the Ukrainian people. This was reported by Yevgenia Kravchuk, a member of the permanent delegation of the Verkhovna Rada to PACE Facebook.
"The resolution "Commemoration of the 90th anniversary of the Holodomor - Ukraine again faces the threat of genocide" has just been unanimously adopted by the PACE. 80 votes "for"!", She wrote.
According to Kravchuk, the document establishes that the former leadership of the USSR deliberately implemented policies that led to famine in Ukraine, seeking to completely suppress any Ukrainian resistance to the totalitarian communist regime, subjugate Ukrainians and destroy their aspirations and efforts to establish an independent state.
"The Assembly also determines that the systematic destruction, first of all, of political and cultural leaders, who were the cultural foundation of the Ukrainian nation, and then of millions of ordinary Ukrainians, was deliberately conceived as genocide." - added Evgenia Kravchuk.
