Georgians Tear Down Stalin Statue in Gori amid History Debates
The Georgians removed the six metre statue of Stalin from Gori, birthplace of the dictator, replacing it with a monument to victims of Russian aggression from the 2008 war. The piece argues Russia seeks a favorable history of Stalin through a unified school textbook, downplaying crimes and glorifying wartime victory. It notes ongoing propaganda risks and contrasts Georgian actions with Russian attempts to rehabilitate Stalin.
