Why is Russia killing us: an interview with Professor Dmytro Bily

The head of the Holodomor and mass man-made famines research department of the Holodomor Museum, Dmytro Bily, gave a long interview to the Svoi YouTube channel, where he talked about the historical component of the policy of Russian cruelty and the desire to enslave and oppress other peoples.

If we look back over the past centuries, we will see that Russia has repeatedly entered the path of terror against Ukrainians. The Holodomor, mass deportations, and murders are common practices of the imperial government first, then the Soviet government, and finally Putin’s. Why Russia hates Ukraine so much, why they are destroying us and what the roots of this brutality are – Svoi discussed with Dmytro Bily, the historian and Kuban researcher at the Holodomor Museum.
