The famine of 1932-33 killed about five to seven million, and the great purge killed about 800,000, just for the record.
>>132572860
10 million in the famine of 1921-22
8 million in the famine of the 1930's
2 million more outside these periods
Stephen Wheatcroft:
After the Soviet Union dissolved, evidence from the Soviet archives became available, containing official records of the execution of approximately 800,000 prisoners under Stalin for either political or criminal offenses, around 1.7 million deaths in the Gulags and some 390,000 deaths during kulak forced resettlement – for a total of about 3 million officially recorded victims in these categories.
Then starvation, neglect, unreported executions, and other areas would have killed an estimated 17 million more prematurely in this period.

>10 million in 1921-22
Try a fifth of that for a medium estimate. A lot of the famine was due to wartime damage and natural disasters too.
>8 million
Most estimates are closer to five or six, unless you're looking at Cold War propaganda or Ukrainian nationalist """sources"""
>17 million more died in this period
This is utter bullshit. The main times of death in the Stalin era were the 1932-33 famine and the Great Purge (the 1921-22 famine technically occurred before he took power, ending just as he was gaining power). 17 million don't mysteriously die off in unnamed events simply because The Black Book of Communism or some such source said so.
