On 16 December 2015, the Kyiv District Administrative Court banned activities of the Communist Party of Ukraine. This came after a decision of the Ministry of Justice to deprive the Communist Party of Ukraine, the renewed Communist Party, and Communist Party of Workers and Peasants of the status and rights of political parties.

According to the Minister of Justice Pavlo Petrenko, after Ukraine adopted four decommunization laws on 9 April 2015, an independent commission was created, which checked the aforementioned parties for compliance with these laws. It found that the three communist parties of Ukraine violate the newly adopted laws on condemning the communist and Nazi regimes, and prohibition of propaganda of their symbols: their names, symbolism, statute, and program were found to violate the bill.

Good. Ukraine had a very bad experience with Communism under Joseph Stalin. The mass famine of Holodomor that killed 7 million people.

Perhaps we can ban Communism in America.

It's difficult to believe the scope of atrocities the Communitsts committed against the Ukrainian people, but they really happened.  Crimes so horrific that they actually make the Holocaust take a back seat by comparison, and without any diminution of the Holocaust.

It was unimaginable. Let's not forget the Killing Fields of Khmer Rouge. A large percentage of Cambodians were killed by Pol Pot. There is also the Great Leap Forward under Mao Zedong. He killed more than Joseph Stalin.
