Question

Which of the following identifies atrocities committed by the Soviet Union that targeted Ukrainians?

Answer 1

All of them. Briefly:

- Holodomor — the 1932–33 man‑made famine in Soviet Ukraine that killed millions of Ukrainians.
- Attacks on Cossacks — policies of “decossackization” and violent repression during the Civil War and collectivization targeted Cossack communities (including many in Ukrainian lands).
- Kulaks — the campaign of dekulakization persecuted, deported, and often killed wealthier peasants (many of them Ukrainian).
- Red Terror — the Bolshevik campaign of mass arrests, executions and repression during/after the Civil War that targeted political opponents, including Ukrainian nationalists and civilians.
