Stalinist tendenceis?? edit

>helped demonstrate that despite the Khrushchev Thaw, Stalinist tendencies

Any example of such bullshit in Stalin's USSR please. What it really shows that's legal level of Krushev himself who was one of the initiators of terror in 1937-38 years but somehow avoided the punishment.

>Khrushchev had spoken of a "return to Leninist norms of socialist legality" after years of abuse of the legal system by Joseph Stalin.

Sometimes it's really funny to read antisoviet and antistalinist propaganda. Sure thing Stalin could send Khrushev himself to death row for such things. Stalin spent all 1930s trying to build rightful state and rid of these Civil War butchers who had their hands covered in blood. But in 1953 he died. Hurray! Lets act like in Civil War times and shoot again! That what Krushev openly told. Nothing strange that things like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1956_Georgian_demonstrations https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Novocherkassk_massacre happened. 213.87.128.29 (talk) 11:52, 19 January 2015 (UTC)Reply

removal of small sections edit

There are no citations that say the trial was "well-attended", "met approvingly by the audience", or endorsed by "thousands of soviet citizens" so I have removed these sections. If anyone can find reliable, unbiased sources that say the above happened than do so. --2001:8003:4B8A:3C00:140:79C5:C06D:19F3 (talk) 00:23, 24 June 2017 (UTC)Reply

At least some of these statements can be found in a source that is already mentioned in the article: Yuri Feofanov, Donald D. Barry. Politics and Justice in Russia: Major Trials of the Post-Stalin Era. 1996. P. 30. Though I'm not sure if that work is reliable and unbiased. DefendingPages (talk) 07:24, 24 June 2017 (UTC)Reply
