the difference of opinions on russian history of the 20th century in
russia itself and in the rest of the world is dramatic. outside
russia, stalin is regarded as the same mass murderer and criminal as
hitler. particularly problematic is the historic dispute between
russia and ukraine. what will happen if yushchenko dares to go as
far as proclaiming general andrey vlasov, who defected to hitler and
believed in freeing russia from stalinism by assisting hitler, as a
"hero"? russia cannot expect any understanding of its attempts to
purify stalin抯 role during the german-russian division of eastern
europe in 1939 for one simple reason梑ecause after 1945, it
established dictatorial communist regimes in those countries which
it successfully liberated from fascism. politically, stalin's
tactical moves in 1939 may be understood, but morally, he cannot be
justified.
the cold war continued for almost half a century. the historical
images and "dogmas" which were formed at that time in the "free"
west continue to dominate the globe today, 20 years after the end of
communism. one should not forget that more than two million russians
and ukrainians, who either defected during the war from the red army
or were captured by the germans, remained in the west for good after
1945, joining the ranks of those who fought communism. a partial
rehabilitation of stalin that is being done in russia these days
will never go over with today's western elite thinking, because in
the western view russia's positive role in defeating nazi germany
was later largely overshadowed by what the soviet union subsequently
did in eastern europe.
