On July 5, the 19th Congress of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation adopted a resolution recognizing the report of the First Secretary of the CPSU Central Committee Nikita Khrushchev on the personality cult of Joseph Stalin as erroneous and “politically biased.”
The Congress of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation adopted a resolution recognizing as “erroneous and politically biased” the report of the First Secretary of the Central Committee of the CPSU Nikita Khrushchev on the cult of personality of Joseph Stalin at the 20th Congress of the CPSU, RIA Novosti reports.
Before discussing the resolution, Deputy Chairman of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation Dmitry Novikov told journalists that the congress would consider a document that “is connected with the restoration of the full historical justice in relation to an outstanding figure in Russian and world history – Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin.”
On February 25, 1956, Nikita Khrushchev delivered a closed report at the 20th Congress of the CPSU, where he criticized Stalin’s policies. He criticized the repressions, the violation of the principle of collegiality in making important decisions, the deportation of peoples, and the creation of Stalin’s personality cult, writes RBC.
In addition, the CPRF congress adopted a resolution on the intention to appeal to Russian President Vladimir Putin with a call to return the names Stalingrad and Stalingrad Region to the city of Volgograd and the Volgograd Region, RIA Novosti reports.
The Chairman of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation Gennady Zyuganov repeatedly recalled the merits of Vladimir Lenin and Joseph Stalin: “they gathered the entire empire, built nine thousand of the best factories, gave the best social policy, essentially created nuclear missile weapons and broke through into space.” He criticized Khrushchev for trying to debunk the “Leninist-Stalinist modernization” and thereby “committed a crime against the people,” writes RBK.
I know that after my death a pile of rubbish will be heaped on my grave, but the wind of history will sooner or later sweep it away without mercy.
- Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin
And the wind of history finally arrived at last
Fidel’s
“History will absolve me”
Is also a banger quote.
Fidel will soon be a absolved by the whole latin america. All of the filth thrown at him and at Cuba by our fascists/liberals will soon clear away to make way for the truth.
Hopefully, that day will arrive soon when the Yankee empire collapses.
I think that’s not a real quote, however reasonable a prediction it is.
I can’t speak to the accuracy… https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Joseph_Stalin
Said to Molotov in 1943, as quoted in Felix Chuev’s 140 Conversations with Molotov Moscow, 1991.
Well… better late than never.
Does Russia being part of the former USSR make it easier or more difficult to ever become socialist again?
That doesn’t necessarily have all bearing. What that depends on is if western integration and propaganda makes that effort difficult for Russia as well?
Fortunately, we know that answer, considering how the West economically ravaged them and treated them diplomatically, and now that Russian gov’t and people have grown to see the USSR, as the times of stability, the times they at least held their ground to the USA.
