This resolution expresses the sense of the House of Representatives that the 1932-1933 Ukrainian famine, known as the Holodomor , is recognized as a genocide. It asserts that this famine was engineered by the former Soviet Union to break Ukrainian resistance and served as a cover for repression and persecution against the Ukrainian people and culture. The resolution notes that millions perished due to sealed borders, confiscated harvests, and forced collectivization, with a 1988 report to Congress concluding it was genocide. The House solemnly remembers the atrocities, extends sympathies to victims, and condemns the systematic human rights violations by the Soviet Union. It encourages the dissemination of information to increase understanding of this Soviet-engineered genocide. Additionally, the resolution condemns Vladimir Putin's brutal and unprovoked war in Ukraine and his repeated rejections of Ukrainian identity and sovereignty. Ultimately, the resolution strongly supports efforts to advance a path to lasting peace in Ukraine and deter future Russian aggression.
