SRES 472 United States Senate · 118th Congress

A resolution expressing the sense of the Senate that the 90th anniversary of the Ukrainian Famine of 1932-1933, known as the Holodomor, should serve as a reminder of repressive Soviet policies against the people of Ukraine, and that Vladimir Putin's brutal and unprovoked war against Ukraine once again threatens the existence of the Ukrainian people, while exacerbating the problems of global hunger.

This non-binding Senate resolution (SRES 472) commemorates the 90th anniversary of the 1932-1933 Holodomor - a Soviet-era famine that killed millions of Ukrainians - and connects it to Russia's current war in Ukraine. It condemns Vladimir Putin's invasion as an existential threat to Ukraine, specifically noting how Russia's attacks on Ukrainian agriculture and energy infrastructure have worsened global food insecurity. The resolution urges Russia to stop attacking civilians, withdraw troops, and respect Ukraine's sovereignty, while honoring Holodomor victims and supporting Ukraine's defense against Russian aggression. As a commemorative resolution, it does not enact new policies but expresses the Senate's position on historical and current events.
