Holodomer

This site gives us the information about the unbiased truth and facts about the Soviet famine of the year 1032 which affected the most grain producing areas and agricultural areas. The term Golodomer means a great hunger or mass hunger which caused millions of victims throughout the Soviet Union. The communist Government of soviet Republics seized most of the grains from the peasantry and exported most of their agricultural output to the west in order to sustain the rapid economic transformation. In order to attract the world's attention the word Golodomer has been transformed to holodomor making it to look like and sound like holocaust and could be considered as genocide. Scholars have estimated that about six to eight million peasants have been dead during that famine and it affected the areas of Central Russia, Ukraine, Kazhastan and North Caucasus. The Ukraine nationalists manipulated the historical facts in order to make Europe recognize it as golodomer a genocidal famine but the European members disagreed with that. They believed that the famine was not an attempt to destroy the Ukrainian nation but but an ineffective economic policy of the Communist governments of the Republics of the Soviet Union. The European parliament rejected to call it as genocidal famine and was clinically planned by the Soviet Union's policy of collectivization of agriculture. Just visit this site for more information.
