Joseph Stalin was from South Odessa, which is ethnically Russian. It was also part of the Russian Empire during that time. Therefore, Stalin was a Russian.
Uhm. It's South-Ossetia (Odessa is a city). And ethnically they are not Russian but Iranian-related. Yes it was part of the Russian Empire. And Stalin's father was Ossetian, but not his mother.
In any case to blame Stalin to a people is like saying all Austrians are guilty of Hitler, while Germans are innocent.
The world better take keen note of Moscow’s latest example of the butchery they have in store for more bordering victims of Russian neo-Soviet-fascist wrath. The question is, which nation shall be next on Putin’s hit list?
