Treść głównego artykułu

Abstrakt

The authors focus on the elements of the definition of the crime of genocide using the example of the Holodomor and the Russian military aggression against Ukraine. The article presents the relationship between the concept of genocide and its definition in the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court. However, the main objective of the paper is to point out certain similarities between the actions of Stalin’s regime against the Ukrainian nation during the Holodomor genocide and the recent actions within the Russian military aggression against Ukraine, which are supported by genocidal propaganda and therefore, among other aspects, constitute the crime of genocide.
