Poll: Almost 40% of Russians have positive attitude to Stalin : UNIAN news
A large share of Russians, or 39% of respondents in a recent poll, have a positive attitude to former Soviet dictator Josef Stalin, according to the results of a survey carried out by the Levada Center, an independent Russian polling and sociological research organization.

According to the survey, a total of 30% of respondents respect Stalin, 7% have sympathy, 2% have admiration, while every third respondent was indifferent to him.

Stalin's perception differs considerably depending on the age of the respondent - among young people every second person was indifferent, while older respondents (43%) tended to respect Stalin.

The attitude towards the dictator also depends on the type of consumer status - wealthy Russians four times more often expressed a negative attitude to Stalin than less well-off respondents.

In general, those Russians who believe that the suffering of Stalin’s victims in Soviet times was justified by “great goals and results,” has increased from 25% in 2012 to 45% in 2015.

However, Muscovites (64%) and Russians with high consumer status (66%) believe that any results, even if they are in the name of a great goal, can’t be justified by the sacrifices.

The poll was conducted on March 20-23. A total of 1,600 people aged from 18 were questioned in 46 regions of Russia.

The distribution of answers is given as a percentage of the total number of respondents, together with data from the previous surveys. The poll’s margin of error is no more than 3.4%.

Stalin prevented russia from being enslave by Nazi. Without him, almost all Russian will be savagely killed. Yes, he is not perfect but his contribution and forseen in industrialise Russia before WWII cannot be denied.

Good for Russians to not believe western lies. They use to say Cuba was as poor as Congo, but it turns out to be one of the richest states in latin America, if we go by per capita income. And that happened despite the hardcore economic sanctions put upon them.

He maybe born in Georgia but I heard he is an ethic Russian.

Stalin was a ethnic Gergian born as Ioseb Besarionis Dze Jugashvili on Gori, Georgia. As young man moved to Moscow joined Marxists and adopted the name Stalin meaning steel.

Stalin, the man of steel.

He received Russia with a plow, and left it a industrialized Atomic power. He was a tyrant to many, but to others he was a hero, a leader, and a man of iron will.

One must give him credit where its due, the man had a iron logic:

"It is enough that the people know there was an election. The people who cast the votes decide nothing. The people who count the votes decide everything" - Joseph Stalin

Are people born in South Asia, Africa, and the Caribbean who live in the UK, have a UK passport, and hold allegiance to the Queen not British because of their foreign birth?
Stalin's nationality was Soviet. Before that he was a citizen of the Russian Empire. But being a citizen of a country's empire doesn't make you the same as being of that country. There were 800 million British citizens 70 years ago for example.

It still does not take away the fact of his contribution to Russia. Are we trying to say, just becos of his enthicity, all what he contributed shall be forgotten?

And 60 million say he was a butcher problem is you cant poll the dead.


"Indeed, Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, the literary giant who wrote harrowingly about the Soviet gulag system, claimed the true number of Stalin’s victims might have been as high as 60 million.
Most other estimates from reputed scholars and historians tend to range from between 20 and 60 million.
In his book, “Unnatural Deaths in the U.S.S.R.: 1928-1954,” I.G. Dyadkin estimated that the USSR suffered 56 to 62 million "unnatural deaths" during that period, with 34 to 49 million directly linked to Stalin.
In “Europe A History,” British historian Norman Davies counted 50 million killed between 1924-53, excluding wartime casualties."

How Many People Did Joseph Stalin Kill?

Without Stalin, the whole Russian population will be wiped out by hitler. 60million or whole population, I think the Russian are smart to choose which one.
