Denial of Famine in Ukraine
Herriot's denial of the Ukrainian Famine of 1932-33 came after a visit to Ukraine between 26 August and 9 September 1933, shortly after leaving the French Prime Ministership. Herriot denied accounts of the famine and said that Soviet Ukraine was "like a garden in full bloom".<ref name="Black">Nicolas Werth, Karel Bartošek, Jean-Louis Panné, Jean-Louis Margolin, Andrzej Paczkowski, Stéphane Courtois, The Black Book of Communism: Crimes, Terror, Repression, Harvard University Press, 1999, Template:ISBN, pages 159–160</ref>
Furthermore, he announced to the press that there was no famine in Ukraine, that he did not see any trace of hunger, and that the allegations of starving millions were being spread by adversaries of the Soviet Union. "When one believes that the Ukraine is devastated by famine, allow me to shrug my shoulders", he declared. The 13 September 1933 issue of Pravda was able to write that Herriot "categorically contradicted the lies of the bourgeoisie press in connection with a famine in the USSR."<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
