Address of Secretary of the NSDC of Ukraine Oleksandr Turchynov on the Day of Holodomors Victims
Today is the Day of Holodomors Victims ...
Holodomor is one of the most terrible crimes in human history. Events which were taken place in Ukraine during 1921-1923, 1932-1933 and 1946-1947 years on the personal order of Stalin, became the weapons of mass destruction of our people and country. Millions of our citizens were perished, thousands of villages were deserted.
Through genocide of the Ukrainian people, the communist regime tried to break down our eternal striving for freedom. The same like today the successor of the USSR - Russia - is trying to destroy Ukraine and the Ukrainians. Time and again, having captured our territories, they're carried out attacks on our positions in the east. Day after day, the best sons of our country are dying out again, Ukraine is waged blood... Nonetheless they'll not be able to destroy our freedom and liberty, our country and our people. Ukraine will live!
Remember in the name of the Future! Light a candle today at 4 p.m. to commemorate the Ukrainians who died during the Holodomors. Eternal memory...
