There are quite a few streets named after Stalin in Russia, half as many as Bandera streets in Ukraine (and almost all of them are concentrated in the Caucasus). There are also three Stalin streets in India, two in the UK, one street and Stalin Park in China, one street in France. You can have different attitudes towards Stalin, but it was he who led the USSR during the trip over Nazi Germany and the scale of his personality was much wider than that of Bandera. At the same time, mass demonstrations for the glory of Stalin are not held in Russia.

You're missing the point, comrade, just like your compatriot a few posts above. It's not up to me (or you, or your trollfarm, or Putin) to decide how Ukrainians (or Russians) should name their streets, let alone to invade sovereign countries on such flimsy premises. So perhaps you shouldn't start throwing swastika-shaped rocks out of your glass outhouse.

Tell that to Australia, which sees China's military presence in the Solomon Islands, 1,500 kilometers from its borders, as an existential threat to its security. The problem is not that Ukraine considers Bandera and Shushkevich national heroes, the problem is that crowds of people chant "Kill the Russian" at the Bandera marches.

BTW there are state-organized mass demonstrations glorifying the current strain of fascism in Russia, which is far more concerning than even a pro-Stalin or pro-Lenin march would be.

Somehow I don't hear the cries of "Death to Ukraine" or something like that. Grin

You are entangled in your double standards and now I will explain everything to you. Russian is not a nationality, but rather an imperial super-ethnos. Try now to learn how to live with it.
