Russian Communist party supporters march to lay flowers to the tomb of late Soviet leader Joseph Stalin during a memorial ceremony to mark the 143-rd anniversary of his birth at Red Square in Moscow on December 22, 2020. While historians blame Stalin for the deaths of millions in purges, prison camps and forced collectivisation, many in Russia still praise him for leading the Soviet Union to victory over Nazi Germany in World War II.
