Lenin Peace Prize
"The International Stalin Prize or the International Stalin Prize for Strengthening Peace Among Peoples (renamed the "International Lenin Prize for Strengthening Peace Among Peoples" as a result of destalinization) was the Soviet Union's equivalent to the Nobel Peace Prize. It was awarded by a panel appointed by the Soviet government, to notable individuals whom the panel indicated had "strengthened peace among peoples"."
