2. In 1932- 1933 Russia starved Ukrainians, killed approx. 4-10 million lives.

It was a severe national tragedy for Ukraine. The people were forced to eat the bark off of trees and people dropped in the street of starvation. This happened in Ukraine, one of the world's richest farming areas, producing huge amounts of grain. Stalin forced Ukrainians to send the grain off to other countries.

The goal was to get rid of Ukrainian nationalism and force compliance with Russia.

Putin is using the same tactics as Stalin.

4. It was called the Holodomor.

6. Yes, from the Ukrainian words for hunger (holod) and extermination (mor).

I have an instinctual abhorrence of this practices as the British did the same thing to the Irish.

Russia is doing the same thing again.

3. Putin benefits from refugees flooding Europe.

Destabilizes countries, strains the social network system, creates fear and hatred of others.
Then Putin can install his puppets into top level government positions.
