Russians resuscitate an old favorite

A "Victory Train" rolled through Moscow with the above picture of Josef Stalin on its front to celebrate the end of WWII. Sixty "world dignataries" are on hand to help in the celebrations.

And, a new statue of the great leader was unveiled to a cheering crowd in eastern Siberia. Details here.

Previously: a statue of KGB founder Felix Dzerzhinsky is erected in a small town outside Moscow.
