Joseph Stalin led the Soviet Union. Stalin took over after Lenin died. Stalin was not Lenin's choice as a successor but Stalin schemed and came into power, basically he stole the title. He was in power before and after WW11. He died in 1953. In WW2 he had signed a non-agression pact with Hitler, but ultimately became allied with France, Great Britain, the United States and the other Allied countries.
