"Holodomor" means "death by starvation". Today we honour the memory of the victims of this genocide committed by the Soviet regime. Today, Russia is once again trying to destroy Ukraine. The brutal (drone) attack last night was another example of this. But Russia will fail again," said the European Union's Ambassador to Ukraine, Katarina Mathernova.

Earlier it became known that 55 UN member states and the EU delegation signed the Declaration initiated by Ukraine at the UN to mark the 90th anniversary of the Holodomor of 1932-1933.
To date, the Holodomor has been recognised as genocide of the Ukrainian people by the parliaments of about three dozen countries, as well as by the European Parliament and the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe.
