Khrushchev’s Secret Speech (1956)
On the Stalin’s Soviet Union map as “The Secret Speech”
25 Feb 1956 — At a closed session of the Twentieth Party Congress in the Kremlin, Nikita Khrushchev denounced Stalin’s “cult of personality”, the terror directed against loyal communists and the deportation of whole nations. He left collectivisation and the famines unmentioned.
