Today is Holodomor Commemoration Day in Ukraine and for Ukrainians all over the world.

“Death solves all problems. No human, no problem.” - Joseph Stalin

The Holodomor (“extermination/death by hunger” in Ukrainian) destroyed Ukraine and took millions of lives; nearly one-fifth of the country’s population was lost. The dreadful famine that engulfed Ukraine, the northern Caucasus, and the lower Volga River area in 1932-1933 was the result of Joseph Stalin’s policy of forced collectivization.
