Couldnt it be both?
Why does it even have to be either? The idea that "Hitler only thought of exterminating the Jews because of the Holodomor" is absurd. How much was actually publicized about the details behind the Holodomor during the 1930s, other than the news that there had been "a dire bread shortage" in Ukraine and people had starved in terrible numbers? Nor did the Holodomor mirror the policies that the Nazis implemented against the Jews: segregation, deportation, ghettoization, mass shootings, mass gassings. Where's the evidence that Hitler, Himmler, or any Nazis were consciously modelling what they were doing on the Holodomor?

You can draw parallels between them, but to claim (without proof) that Hitler was directly inspired to do what he did by the Holodmor is just a back-handed attempt to somehow pin the blame for the Nazi Judeocide on Stalin.
