	The Russian Terrorist Regime & the Aritificle Famine in Ukraine (1932-33) by A. Mykulyn from The Ukraianian Review 1958.
		The measures resorted to by the Russian occupation authorities in the case of the Ukrainian population of the West Ukrainian regions that belonged to Austria-Hungary and were temporarily occupied by the Russian armies, were particularly violent: the extermination of Ukrainian cultural life in every sphere, mass •arrests and imprisonment of the Ukrainian population.
		The Russian Bolsheviks in Moscow thereupon proclaimed the independence of a Ukrainian Soviet Republic on March 4, 1918, and in the spring of 1919, the 3rd Congress of the Soviets proclaimed the founding of the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic.
		Thus, according to Russian historical sources, the famines in Ukraine in the 17th and 18th centuries were in no way caused by a shortage of food or other commodities, but were due solely to the policy pursued by the Russian occupation authorities in order to break the opposition of Ukraine to Russian enslavement.
