A proposito di questo titolo

In this episode, Lucas and Luna delve into the Holodomor, Stalin's deliberate famine that killed millions of Ukrainians in 1932-33. They explore the policies of collectivization and dekulakization, the seizure of grain quotas, and the blockade that prevented starving peasants from seeking food. The conversation covers the debate over whether the Holodomor constituted genocide, drawing on evidence from Soviet archives and survivor testimonies. They discuss the role of local officials like Hryhorii Chubar and the international response, including the work of journalists like Gareth Jones and Malcolm Muggeridge who tried to expose the truth. Lucas explains how the Holodomor shaped Ukrainian national identity and memory, and how it remains a contentious issue in Ukraine-Russia relations today. The episode also touches on the cultural impact, such as the commemoration through the Holodomor memorial in Kyiv and the ongoing scholarship by historians like Robert Conquest and Anne Applebaum.
