The irony for Ukranian nationalists is that Lenin gave them their state, and another Communist later gifted them Crimea. Today they are fighting for things Communists gave them. Even most of their buildings and homes were made in Communist times. But they tear down staues of their fathers
Yes, their "fathers", that also intentionally starved millions of them to death in one of the worst genocides in world history.
Some interesting facts about that. The guy running the state at that time was Georgian. It was not Ukranians per se that were targeted by government policy of collectivization, it was the land owning peasant class, kulaks. Whether the famine itself was intentional is very debatable ie it wasnt an official policy to kill people
