Churchill having to stand and listen to The Internationale made my day

1:03 he's like "I did not sign up for this..."

A very stressful time in ww2 for churchill

[@SMGJohn]

Stalin, the man who tried to resign no less than 3 times, but the party and the people would not allow it, so he probably put something in his drink to become permanently resigned.

[@German_Sniper]

Stalin's resignation attempts were orchestrated by Stalin himself to assert his power . Stalin was a strong , intelligent and Great leader anyway , I respect him , unlike the modern day Comedians like Merkel , Trump & Biden and corrupt semi dictators like Winnie the pooh and Uncle Vova

[@SMGJohn]

@@German_Sniper Stalin never wanted the job, this is well proven by countless of user accounts and not to mention official documentation. Stalin was forced to be a leader, by his own party, and later, his own people. I read a conspiracy theory that suggest Stalin orchestrated his own death just to be allowed to finally resign from power. Which sounds like bullshit, but considering how many times Stalin tried to resign it make sense, also there is even video footage of Stalin getting enraged when the party rejects his last attempt of resigning, do you really think that genuine pure rage was an act? LOL

meeting of two criminals. bozey churchill the destroyer of the empire meets the destroyer of eastern europe.

[@primilumi7472]

For Hitler and you Adolf lovers yes. But Soviet Union was then the only big country in Europe with strong army and vast natural resources that was not defeated and conquered by your idol Adolf Hitler. United Kingdom finally realized under Winston Churchill that London made a huge mistake in 1930's to let Adolf Hitler and his Nazi Party come to power in Germany and allow Nazis to invade all of Europe. And at the same time completely ignoring Soviet Union and it's role in European security after WW1. Same mistakes are repeated today between West and Russia.
