Winston Churchill.


So obviously, there was something more to Stalin's state than "great big prison camp."

Maxim, what makes you think that it was the West that created the "Iron Curtain?"

Speech Churchill in Fulton (Sinews of Peace).

Of course, everything was somewhat more complicated and I did not read much about it. But to prick an Englishman in response is enough (I think). Maybe, it was bad idea. )))

Cover Red Alert - Soviet March by Monetochka.


https://youtu.be/tvpwRExf2V0

Our Soviet Union subjugates the whole world
Like a gigantic bear from the East.
The sheep wander aimlessly, without any cause,
Yet the Soviet bear's on the hunt.

Our brotherhood's a good life, Our generosity is without compare.
All those with us are strong,
All those against us, beware.
It'd be a shame if we had hardships.

To all those around us, it's not worth your while
If we were to turn you to ashes.
We thank you profoundly, and bow to you deeply,
From the mightiest nation in all the world.

Russia had a string of protests around the country again similar to the ones back in March.

Is the opposition mostly united with Alexei Navalny? Is he becoming more popular? And if so does he have a chance of winning the election? Is the beginning of the end of Putin? Or do most Russians not agree with the protesters?
