'''Vyacheslav Molotov''' was the foreign minister of the former [[Soviet Union]] from 1939 to 1956 and one of the architects of the [[Molotov-Ribbentrop pact]]. The [[Molotov Cocktail]], an improvised petrol bomb widely used by [[Finland|Finnish]] troops against tanks while resisting Soviet aggression in the [[Winter War]] of 1939-1940, is named for him. He also served both Lenin and Stalin, which resulted in him being asked which of the two was more severe and answering without hesitation that Lenin was more severe.<ref>https://fee.org/articles/the-unknown-lenin-from-the-secret-archive-edited-by-richard-pipes/</ref><ref>https://newcriterion.com/issues/2019/10/leninthink</ref>
