That the Parliament recognises that 28 November 2026 marks the annual Holodomor Memorial Day; understands that this memorial day is in remembrance of the victims of the 1932-33 man-made famine that killed millions of Ukrainians; notes the longstanding relationship between Ukraine and Scotland; recognises that Holodomor Memorial Day commemorates all the victims of the Holodomor; expresses its solidarity with the people of Ukraine who were victims of this genocide by, it believes, what were the deliberate actions of the Soviet regime, and pays its respects to those killed during this time.
