I agree with Chris, Nicholas is better to remember than Lenin. Lenin, by the way, is fading like a northen light here - thank God!
Lenin was a beast and hateful murderer.
Stalin is a very different question. The peoples of the Soviet Union defeated Hitler - with or without Stalin's "help." When Russians can agree on this, a healthly Russian nationalism will come into place.
