“On this date in 1953, Stalin’s feared minister Lavrenty Beria was shot — finally on the receiving end of the cruelty he had administered to countless Soviet citizens.Lavrenty Pavlovich was, like Stalin, a Georgian peasant, albeit one generation younger.”
The same fate awaits Vladimir Putin. Such men never die of old age.
Just read the site link to Molotov. He died at 96, the last of the Bolshevik old guard.
And apparently when his time came, Beria was crying like a little bitch. Just as he used to mock his victims in front of Stalin.
