Holodomor denial (Ukrainian: заперечення Голодомору, romanized: zaperechennia Holodomoru) is the claim that the Holodomor, a 1932–33 man-made famine that killed millions in Soviet Ukraine,[1] did not occur[2][3][4] or diminishing its scale and significance.
Officially, the government of the Soviet Union denied the occurrence of the famine and it also suppressed information about the famine from the very beginning of it until the 1980s.
