    Okay, how about the guy who coined the term?

    Raphael Lemkin (a pioneer of genocide studies[79]: 35  who coined the term genocide, and an initiator of the Genocide Convention), James Mace, Norman Naimark, and Timothy Snyder have written that the Holodomor was a genocide and the intentional result of Soviet policies under Stalin.

      Wikipedia as a source. Amazing.

      Here’s a challenge; find an academic work written by a serious historian after the opening of the Soviet archives that considers the 32-33 Soviet famine to be a deliberate genocide.

      And while you’re at it, go back and answer 新星’s question, which you are still dodging.

      Also, didn’t you say you weren’t interested in arguing about definitions?
