    A joint publication of Ukrainian and Italian historians "Letters from Kharkiv. Famines in Ukraine and North Caucasus in the Italian Diplomats' Reports, 1932-1933" was presented at the National University "Kyiv-Mohyla Academy" dedicated to the 75th anniversary of the Holodomor Famine in Ukraine. According to the book's editor, professor of history at the University of Naples Andrea Graziosi, the book contains 58 reports dated from February 1930 to October 1934. They were discovered in the archives of the Italian Foreign Ministry 20 years ago and published as "Letters from Kharkiv" in 1989. The diplomats' accounts are unique, Mr. Graziosi said, since they reveal the truth about the Holodomor as masterminded by Stalin and his cohorts to suppress the Ukrainians' striving for their national statehood. According to the Italian historian, this gives ample grounds for recognizing the 1932-33 Holodomor as the genocide of the Ukrainian people.
