Afaik there is no academic consensus of Holodomor qualifying as Genocide.

It's recognized as Genocide by the inventor of the therm "Genocide" Rafael Lemkin with his article "Soviet genocide in Ukraine" first being heard in 1953. Here is his article in 28 languages, including Armenian https://holodomormuseum.org.ua/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/978-966-2260-15-1.pdf

He was the first researcher of Armenian genocide aswell

This article is banned in RF and added to the "Federal list of extremist materials" https://www.sova-center.ru/racism-xenophobia/news/counteraction/2015/11/d33272/

Also Kyiv's court in 2010 made a decision where Stalin and Co was found guilty with making genocide to Ukrainian nation, with alot of witnesses, facts and documents, proving that it was a genocide. Decision of a court in Ukrainian if interested

Yeah but just because Israel is not recognizing the Armenian genocide we don’t deny the Holocaust in response.

Israel doesn't recognize Ukrainian genocide aswell, while we recognize Holocaust.

UPDATE: Also some regions in Ukraine recognized Armenian genocide: Crimean parliament in Crimean autonomous republic in 2005, before occupation, Cherkasy region, Poltava region, Zaporizhzhia region
