Holodomor 1932—1933
Holodomor (Голодомор, Голодомо́р 1932—1933 років, Голодомор в Україні (1932—1933) [1]) is the 1932-1933 famine in Ukraine decided by Stalin.
- The Soviet regime dumped 1.7 million tons of grain on the Western markets at the height of the Famine. It exported nearly a quarter of a ton of grain for every Ukrainian who starved to death.
Other famines
= Holodovka 1921-1923
1921-1923, similar famine, caused by Lenin
- Man - not nature - was the cause of the first mass starvation in Soviet Ukraine. In this respect, the Ukrainian famine of 1921-1923 was very different from the contemporaneous Russian famine, but quite akin to the Ukrainian famine of 1932-1933. Since starvation in Ukraine was the result of a policy of plunder by Lenin's government, the responsibility lies with the Soviet state.
- The famine may have been averted in Ukraine, given the fact that food reserves from previous years existed there. Unfortunately, the Soviet government transferred massive amounts of grain from Ukraine to Russia before and during the famine. In 1920 grain was requisitioned with much violence by special military expeditions (see Surplus appropriation system) and Committees of Poor Peasants, and in 1921 an unusually heavy tax in kind was imposed on the peasants of Ukraine. As a result, in the fall of 1921 famine ensued.
