On November 23, Odessa honored the memory of the victims of the Holodomor of 1932-1933 in Ukraine.
This tragic event in the history of the Ukrainian people caused immense suffering and loss. During Soviet times, discussing it was prohibited, and the memory was passed down orally from generation to generation.
Today, we speak about this openly so that the whole world knows and remembers the millions of innocent lives lost due to the genocide perpetrated by the Soviet regime. This year, we once again honor the victims of Stalin's genocide amidst the full-scale war, which is accompanied by genocidal actions by Russia against Ukrainians.
Every year on the fourth Saturday of November, Ukraine commemorates the victims of the Holodomor of 1932–1933 and the mass artificial famines of 1921–1923 and 1946–1947.
