In the decision of the representatives of Western countries reacted Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmitry Kuleba.
“I welcome the historic vote of the Chamber of Deputies of Luxembourg to recognize the Stalinist Holodomor of 1932-1933 as a genocide against the Ukrainians. This step honors the millions of victims and restores historical justice. The international recognition of the Holodomor-genocide continues to grow,” wrote the Foreign Minister.
