President Meloni’s statement on the 90th anniversary of the Holodomor

On the 90th anniversary of the Holodomor, when millions of Ukrainians were purposely killed by starvation under Stalin’s Soviet regime, our thoughts go to the millions of Ukrainians, largely elderly people and children, who are being deprived of electricity, water and heating in the midst of winter as a result of Russian bombings deliberately targeting civilian infrastructure. These actions are unacceptable and are in violation of international law, strengthening our firm belief that we must support the Ukrainian people in their fight for freedom and survival.
