Historian Boris Borisov suggests the U.S. should not lecture Russia on Holodomor in Ukraine, but take a cl “Golodomor ad usum externum” * The United States of America constantly try to teach us the “Holodomor lessons”. “A special commission, created by the US Congress in 1988, came to the conclusion that during the Holodomor period 25 per cent of the Ukrainian population – millions of people – were intentionally annihilated by the Soviet government through genocide, and did not just die as a result of famine.” “On October 20, 2003 the House of Representative of the US Congress accepted a resolution on the 1932-33 Holodomor in Ukraine, stating that this was an act of terror and mass murder, aimed...
