‘The Holodomor: Main Facts’ presented in Modern Greek in Cyprus

The Holodomor Museum joined in commemorating the Holodomor victims in the Republic of Cyprus. As part of the memorial Evening of Truth about the Holodomor, which took place on 22 November at the Ukrainian Educational and Cultural Centre in Cyprus “Obiimy Cyprus.” our publication ‘Holodomor: Main Facts’ was presented in Modern Greek. The book layout, provided by the Holodomor Museum, was printed and distributed at the expense of the event organisers – the Ukrainian-Cypriot Friendship Association and the Obiimy Cultural Centre.

During the memorial event, attendees watched the documentary film “Holodomor: Chroniclers” from the Suspilne TV channel.

As a reminder, the book by museum researchers Andrii Kozytskyi and Mykhailo Kostiv, Holodomor: Main Facts, was translated earlier this year. The translation was done voluntarily by Kira Vereshchahina and Afanasios Stamatis, who responded to the call of the museum’s director general, Lesia Hasydzhak, to help translate the publication into different languages. The book layout is currently available for free on our website. Translations into other languages are also available and can be freely downloaded, printed and used to spread the truth about the Holodomor.

We thank Liolia Filimonova, representative of the Ukrainian-Cypriot Friendship Association, for presenting our publication, which will help Ukrainians and Cypriot citizens understand the Holodomor in a language accessible to them.

May we remind you that we have a long history of cooperation with the Community of Ukrainian-Cypriot Friendship. Particularly last year, the National Museum of the Holodomor-Genocide provided advice on drafting an appeal to the Parliament of the Republic of Cyprus requesting that the Holodomor of 1932–1933 be recognised as genocide of the Ukrainian people. In November 2024, the Community of Ukrainian-Cypriot Friendship submitted a corresponding appeal to the Parliament.
