Putin: Vietnam worse than Stalin purges - "We have not used nuclear weapons against a civilian population, ...We have not sprayed thousands of kilometers with chemicals, dropped on a small country seven times more bombs than in all the Great Patriotic War."

"We have not used nuclear weapons against a civilian population, ...We have not sprayed thousands of kilometers with chemicals, dropped on a small country seven times more bombs than in all the Great Patriotic War." So I guess Stalin was at war with his own people.
Basically that is what Putin is saying when he compares acts the US committed while at war against a hostile foe to Stalins atrocities against his own people.
Stalin must have been at war with the Soviet State of the Ukraine when he forcibly removed the grain harvest of the Ukraine which caused the slow painful mass starvation of uncounted millions of Ukrainians.

At least he’s consistent with other communists. They’re all liars.
