When Russian leader Josef Stalin died, on March 5 in 1953, a letter was found in his office that had been written by Yugoslavian leader Josip Broz Tito.

Thanks Perdogg. Bless him, then. :') The nutjob dictator who ran Albania for decades (and built an Iron Curtain along its border with Yugoslavia) admired Stalin, but disliked Tito and Khruschev. K is often fingered as Stalin's killer, but as Stalin probably murdered Lenin, then proceeded to finish off Lenin's entire 1921 cabinet (every last one of them either vanished or were executed or murdered), I don't see that there's any future cold case file TV segments coming about this. :')

Just adding to the catalog, not sending a general distribution.

To all -- please ping me to other topics which are appropriate for the GGG list.
