How come no one remembers that Stalin murdered several millions of Ukraine farmers in the 1930s? The Bolsheviks siezed all the grain, coats and shoes in the fall, Then they left the people to freeze or starve that winter. Other millions were just plain shot! After Putin gave a history of Russia this week,its past time to point out that Stalin starved thirty million farmers in the 1930s to force colectiveization. That is why many Ukrainians helped fight the Russians in WW2. All this is where Ukrainian nationalism began after centuries of brutality from the Russian state. Nothing much has changed in Russia for 1000 years. Long live Ukraine! Lewis
