Commuters pause walking past the newly unveiled high relief depicting Soviet dictator Joseph Stalin in a passage at Taganskaya metro station in Moscow on May 15, 2025. Moscow authorities on May 15, 2025 unveiled a high relief to Joseph Stalin inside the Russian capital's metro, as the Kremlin has for years pushed to rehabilitate the dictator, promoting an ultra-patriotic version of history that glosses over Soviet-era repression. The Moscow Metro unveiled the replica of the high relief of Soviet dictator inside the central Taganskaya station, that had been destroyed in the 1960s during the de-stalinization campaign.
