Why did the Ukrainian capital dare to erect a statue of Stalin who peed in Kiev? This shows why he has such an impression of people.

The former Soviet Union is a country that loves to build statues of great men. Even today, more than 20 years after the disintegration of the Soviet Union, nearly 100 statues of Lenin are still erected in Moscow, the Russian capital. The official figure is 82, but sculptors say that at least 10 statues are not counted. At the beginning of last century, the bronze statue of revolutionary leader Stalin spread all over the vast land of the former Soviet Union. However, times have changed. As early as the wave of Stalinism in 1950s, the bronze statue of Stalin had been demolished. It was not until June 20 10 that a bronze statue of Stalin stood in front of the government building in Gori, Georgia, the hometown of Soviet leader Stalin, which was once considered as the last large statue of Stalin in the former Soviet Union.

In order to show their loyalty to Stalin and the Soviet Union, the Hungarian party and state leaders built a 25-meter-high monument to Stalin in Budapest and erected it in the central square of Budapest. The monument consists of an 8-meter-high bronze statue of Stalin, a 4-meter-high marble pedestal, a high reviewing platform and concrete steps under the pedestal. After the 1956 incident, the Hungarian people released their dissatisfaction with the Soviet model and Soviet control and vented it on Stalin's statue. 10 year1On October 23rd, about 200,000 people gathered in Budapest, Hungary. Among them,/kloc-0.0 million Hungarians participated in the demolition of the statue, leaving only his boots and inserting the Hungarian flag on them. The crowd shouted "Russians go back!" The scattered part of the statue is written with insulting words such as "toilet".

The situation in Ukraine, once a member of the former Soviet Union, is somewhat similar. 20 10 12 a statue of former Soviet leader Joseph Stalin was damaged by an explosion in Zaporoge, southeastern Ukraine. "This is not hooliganism, but a terrorist attack," said Aleksi Baburin, head of the production party branch of the city. The local police said in a statement that several people passed by the statue of Stalin a few minutes before the explosion. "One of them climbed over the fence outside the statue and tied a shopping bag to the statue, which obviously contained a homemade explosive device." 20 12 in may, members of Ukrainian radical organizations erected a statue of Stalin who peed in Kiev, the capital, to express their anger before victory day. In 1930s, influenced by Stalin's agricultural collectivization movement, there was a great famine in Ukraine, and millions of people starved to death.

Once upon a time, Stalin was the center of mass worship. Towns, villages and cities are all named after him, such as Stalingrad, Stalin Prize, Stalin Peace Prize and so on. This cult of personality reached its peak after the victory of the Soviet-German War, and Stalin's name was written into the new national anthem of the Soviet Union. At the same time, it has also become the focus of various cultural works such as poetry, music, painting and movies. However, due to the great reversal of the theme of social development, these once sacred statues suddenly lost their former glory, authority and honor, and even became mistakes. The respect and worship they once received were replaced by ridicule and contempt.
