November 27, the day commemorating the victims of the Holodomor at the Faculty of Philology and Journalism at Kherson State University was held round table "Remember the Ukrainian genocide."
This terrible page of Ukrainian history was planned and implemented by the government of theUSSRin 1932 - 1933 years. Thus our ancestors paid for attempts resistance communist authorities, because the wider Ukrainian did not perceive its policies and performances and staged numerous protests. And taking into account that the Ukrainian nation was the second largest in theSoviet Unionhad its own state tradition and the experience of the national liberation struggle, the leadership of the state has set a goal to destroy as Ukrainian political nation.
The instrument for this purpose was elected hunger. In particular, in January 1928 the communist regime launched a violent grain deliveries. The peasants forcibly took away most or all grown grain and at much reduced prices. At the same time began "liquidation" of the wealthiest households.
