Belgium recognized the Holodomor as a genocide of the Ukrainian people. The President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky, announced it on his Twitter.

“Historic voting in the House of Representatives of Belgium: one more state recognized the Holodomor of 1932-1933 as genocide of the Ukrainian people: another state recognized the Holodomor of 1932-1933 as genocide of the Ukrainian people. I thank Belgium for this important decision for every Ukrainian, for this deeply symbolic step today,” said the President.

The Holodomor Museum welcomes this decision, thanks the representatives of Belgium and calls on other countries of the world to take similar steps of support!

We will remind you that on November 26 last year, the Prime Minister of Belgium visited our museum and honoured the memory of the victims of the Holodomor genocide.
