The only one who comes to mind is Leon Trotsky, he was exiled during Stalins reign (to Switzerland?) he was later assassinated by the NKVD sometime during the 30s in Mexico.
Lenin's last wish was that the Communist Party find some way to eliminate Joseph Stalin from his positions of power within the Communist Party so that Leon Trotsky, rather than Stalin, would succeed him as leader of the country on his death.
Joseph Stalin. Joseph Stalin became ruler of the Soviet Union soon after Lenin died in 1924. Stalin then established a brutal communist dictatorship. He murdered any person he thought might try to take power from him. This included loyal Communist Party members. He led the U.S.S.R. through World War II. After the war, Stalin seized control of Eastern European countries -- an act which started the Cold War. Stalin died of natural causes in 1953. After his death, the Soviet Union was led by a series of communist leaders. Finally, during the early 1990s, Russians turned to a non-communist leader, Boris Yeltsin, and the years of communist dictatorship came to an end.
Key figures in the early consolidation of communist power in the Soviet Union included Vladimir Lenin, Leon Trotsky, and Joseph Stalin. Lenin was pivotal in establishing the Bolshevik regime following the October Revolution and implementing the New Economic Policy. Trotsky played a crucial role as the leader of the Red Army during the Civil War, ensuring Bolshevik victory. Stalin, who later emerged as the dominant leader, further centralized power and implemented policies that solidified communist control.
Lenin's concern about Stalin's ambition highlights the depth of Stalin's ruthlessness and unpredictability, even in the eyes of a leader known for his own brutal methods. It suggests that Stalin's desire for power exceeded even Lenin's expectations for loyalty and control within the Communist Party. Lenin's warning reflects a fear that Stalin's volatile nature could jeopardize the stability and ideological purity of the revolution. Ultimately, it underscores the dangers of unchecked ambition in leadership.
Stalin unified the Soviet Union after the death of Vladimir Lenin in 1924. Following Lenin's passing, Stalin maneuvered politically to consolidate power, eventually becoming the leader of the Communist Party and the country. His leadership marked a significant shift toward centralized control and the implementation of rapid industrialization and collectivization policies.
