>> Hummm why is it Leningrad military district instead of St.
>> Petersburg military district?

The city changed its name from Leningrad to St. Petersburgh following the dissolution of the USSR, but the oblast never did, all these years.

They also never buried Lenin’s body and unlike the other former USSR republics, most of his statues are still up where they stood.

Russia never went through decommunization like some other ex-Soviet and Warsaw Pact countries.

The cancer was in remission. And now its back.
