A lot of good and negative things have been said about Stalin in recent years. Much of what has been said is true.

In the first days of the war, Stalin firmly took control of the fighting country: from August 8, 1941, he was the Supreme Commander-in-Chief. It took some time to understand what kind of enemy came to our land. This document, stunning in its power, had a mobilizing influence on the soldiers of the Red Army and inspired them to fight the invaders.

The people knew that Stalin was in the Kremlin, they were sure that Stalin would not betray or surrender the country to the Germans and would be with him to the end, until the final defeat of the enemy. This belief in Stalin was of the greatest, if not decisive, importance for the successful conclusion of the Great Patriotic War. The people went to unprecedented suffering and losses, and no punitive forces, detachments and penal battalions would have forced them to go through these tests, if not for faith in Stalin, if the will and decisions of Stalin did not coincide with the will and desire of the Soviet people for Victory.

G.K. Zhukov and A.M. Vasilevsky argued that Stalin was a great commander. Large-scale strategic operations were developed and carried out under Stalin's leadership many times. The war was the greatest test not only for the people, for the Armed Forces, but also for Stalin personally. He withstood it, confidently and firmly led the country from the very first days of the war, took full responsibility for the fate of the state. All serious state documents, orders, plans and decisions bear his signature and everywhere his iron will is visible, aimed at achieving Victory.[1]
