Ukrainian court backs journalist saying Holodomor was not genocide
A court in Ukraine has rejected a lawsuit against a journalist who insists that the famine of the 1930s was not genocide. The lawsuit was filed by a resident of the Donetsk region against a local newspaper editor, Serhiy Shvedko, over his article about the Holodomor, the term used by Ukrainians for the famine of the 1930s. The court found that the article did not spread false information but reflected the author’s personal view. In 1932-33, up to 8 million people died of starvation after severe famine hit Ukraine, the North Caucasus, the Volga Region, the southern Urals, Kazakhstan and Western Siberia.
