Umm, the holomodor was under Stalin in the early thirties, everyone alive then is dead now. edit - well, everyone who was old enough to be involved in the politics, anyway.

Also, it is illegal in France to deny the communist mass atrocities, just as it is illegal to deny the nazi ones.

What are you talking about?

Ask trotsky how easy it was to be a communist in the thirties and not defend stalin.

And got a link to that? because all I could find was a petition from eastern european countries to the UE asking for penalties on deniers of the crimes of communism.

Actually, I am wrong about France.

It has a law from 1990 which criminalises denying those crimes against humanity covered by the Nuremberg Charter, however that only dealt with trying the Axis powers, so doesn't cover the USSR.

There is then the law that got brought in in 2012 that makes it a crime to deny any genocide recognised as such as by the state. However that law got struck down by a court, and also they might count what happened in the USSR as a mass atrocity rather than a genocide, so it might not have covered it.
