Golodomor or holodomor as it was previously called means great hunger or mass hunger.... Many people especially in the Ukrainians considered Golodomor as genocide. But the European politicians viewed this differently by agreeing that the famine in the Soviet Union was not an attempt to destroy the Ukrainian nation, but an ineffective economic policy of the Communist governments of the Republics of the Soviet Union.

Viktor Yuschenko, who assumed power in Ukraine in 2004, wanted to gain popularity to this issue and to attract the world he changed Goldomor to Holodomor so that it can be sound like holocaust. But this time also the EU rejected this as an act of genocide which was a defeat for Ukraine.
Holodomor or Golodomor is the great Soviet famine of 1932-1933 affected most major grain-producing agricultural areas of the Soviet Union, including Northern Caucasus, Volga Region, South Urals, West Siberia, Kazakhstan, and Ukraine.

The communist government led by Joseph Stalin seized tonnes of grains from common people and exported them to the west and other European countries in order to maintain the rapid developments due to industrialization or the industrial revolution. This aggressive policy of the communists led of the death of around 6-8 million innocent people due to poverty and hunger during 1932-33.
