Смятан е за една от най-тежките национални катастрофи в [[История на Украйна|украинската история]], като жертвите по различни оценки са няколко милиона души. Гладът е предизвикан от политиката на [[съветско]]то правителство начело с [[Йосиф Сталин]]. <ref name="britannica">[http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/612921/Ukraine/30078/Soviet-Ukraine#ref=ref404577 Ukraine – The famine of 1932 – 33] – Encyclopædia Britannica: „The Great Famine (Holodomor) of 1932 – 33—a man-made demographic catastrophe unprecedented in peacetime. Of the estimated six to eight million people who died in the Soviet Union, about four to five million were Ukrainians... Its deliberate nature is underscored by the fact that no physical basis for famine existed in Ukraine... Soviet authorities set requisition quotas for Ukraine at an impossibly high level. Brigades of special agents were dispatched to Ukraine to assist in procurement, and homes were routinely searched and foodstuffs confiscated... The rural population was left with insufficient food to feed itself.“</ref><ref>{{cite book |title=Modernization from the Other Shore |last=Engerman |first=David |year=203 |publisher=Harvard University Press |isbn=0674011511 |page=194 |url=http://books.google.com/books?id=UkFlO7hoxOMC&pg=PA194&dq }}</ref>
