The disputed Soviet genocide of millions of civilians before and during World War II was designed to eliminate domestic opposition to the Soviet Union.

"During the war the Soviets committed genocide against at least nine of their distinct ethnic- linguistic sub-nations, including ethnic Germans, ethnic Greeks, Crimean Tatars, and Balkars."

The death of 7 million to 15 million people in Ukraine during famines of 1932 -- 1933 is attributed to intentional non-providing the relief and blocking the migration of starving population by the Soviet government. (see genocide).

The actual number (if any) of those killed or starved for political, ethnical or other reasons, is technically unknown. For those who believe the Soviet genocide to have happened, the number is widely debated and commonly changed back and forth (sometimes for political reasons).
