Volodin accused the communists of trampling Stalin, Khrushchev and Brezhnev
Speaker of the State Duma of the Russian Federation Vyacheslav Volodin gave a harsh rebuke to the communist Viktor Sobolev.
A member of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation accused the Russian authorities of forgetting Lenin and Stalin, a correspondent reports. "PolitNavigator".
“What did his own party do to Stalin? Who took him out of the Mausoleum? The current situation is based on consensus in society. It is based on the fact that we respect memory. We have come to this, we must value the consensus. And the collapse of the USSR was a consequence of the betrayal of the party elites. Otherwise, everything good is the communist party, Stalin. And who is all the bad stuff?
The same party not only trampled Stalin, then trampled Khrushchev, then blotted out Brezhnev. Look how long he was on Malaya Zemlya. How is his name immortalized? Who trampled him? Gorbachev, his successor. We need to talk about this, and then everything will be fair with us,” Volodin said.
He called for consistency in exaltation and cited the example of Cuban leader Fidel Castro, who forbade erecting monuments to himself and naming streets after his name after his death.
