The declaration on the tragic 90th anniversary of the Holodomor of 1932-1933, initiated by Ukraine at the UN, was signed by 55 countries.
North Carolina USA recognized the Holodomor as genocide of the Ukrainian people. This was announced on Saturday, December 2, by the Ambassador of Ukraine to the United States Oksana Markarova in Twitter.
“We are grateful to the state of North Carolina and Governor Roy Cooper for re-recognizing the Holodomor as genocide on the 90th anniversary of the Holodomor in Ukraine,” the statement said.
Let’s remember that the Holodomor of 1932-1933 is considered one of the most tragic events in Ukrainian history. The widespread famine caused many casualties. Historians suggest that as a result of the Holodomor, around 7 million people may have died.
The Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine appealed to democratic states with a request to recognize the Holodomor of 1932-1933 as a genocide of the Ukrainian people. After the start of a massive war, this process intensified. Some European countries have adopted the corresponding decision, as have more than 30 states in the United States.
According to the survey, the Holodomor is considered a genocide of the Ukrainian people by 92% of Ukrainians.
We remind you that Zelensky recorded an appeal on the occasion of the Day of Remembrance of the Victims of the Holodomor. He said the world should punish past and present crimes.
