Here we have what Russia must do to move forward. When Pres. Putin takes responsibility Russia can grow. Many voices across the country will settle for no less.
One shouldn’t have to recite the litany of terror, but in Russia , one does. The Communists were estimated to have killed through murder, camps, starvation, deportations- at least 20 million people over 36 years (72 total). Yes, the number bandied around now is 12.5 million, but that acknowledges millions more. Most of this lies at the feet of the greatest monster in history*, Joseph Stalin, a filthy psychotic who killed his family, friends, colleagues, and significant portion of his nation… along with a piece of Galina’s soul. He didn’t “save the country” in WW2, he was responsible for 10-14 million of the 28 million deaths by ignoring Hitler’s threat even after he invaded,
“We still remember this tragedy. We need to do a great deal to ensure that this is never forgotten.”
35% now would vote for Stalin as leader
