Description
In Leonid Mlechin’s audiobook “Trotsky vs Stalin,” recorded at the Ardis studio, there is an account of the early period of the confrontation between the two leaders of Soviet Russia.
Stalin and Trotsky were inevitably bound to clash. Their struggle determined not only the personal fate of almost all of the major political figures and military commanders of the time, but also, in essence, the fate of the country as a whole.
“Dispute with Trotsky,” wrote one of the leaders of the Socialist Revolutionary Party, Viktor Chernov, “Stalin settled once and for all—so cleverly that he left Trotsky with no possibility of appeal or cassation.”
But now we can take a sober look at our past, sort it out, and judge the key figures of our history with justice. So why did Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin kill Lev Davidovich Trotsky?
