"As Lenin Statutes Are Tumbling Down In Ukraine, Stalin Statutes Are Being Erected In Russia."

Here is an excerpt from How Many People Did Stalin Kill? (historyofrussia.org)
"Before the collapse of the Soviet Union led to the opening of state
archives to researchers, estimates of the number of people killed under
Stalin’s leadership varied dramatically, from 3 million at the lowest
end, to around 60 million at the top end. Post-Soviet research has shown that the number of deaths is probably around 20 million
– still a horrific number. The records are not particularly accurate
in many ways, though, and although a rough consensus seems to be
emerging that 20 million deaths is a reasonably accurate figure, the
topic is still subject to much debate."
