→Stalin being viewed more favorably currently?
:I haven't read anything about this recently, but this would be a realistic trend. Many Russians see the USSR as a time of greatness and Stalin as the epitome of that greatness. I think they wrong to think so for multiple reasons, but the USSR was strong back then, had a larger military, and was stable. --[[User:1990'sguy|1990'sguy]] ([[User talk:1990'sguy|talk]]) 22:40, 28 April 2017 (EDT)
