Answer 3

Stalin had no immediate effect on the Russian Revolution. He was living in exile in Siberia when the February Revolution occurred. Once free of Tsarist control, he hopped on the first train out of Siberia and returned to St. Petersburg. Even Lenin had no immediate effect on the February Revolution since he was living in self imposed exile in Switzerland.

IN the October Revolution, Stalin was given no task, such as seizing control of military, transportation or communications facilities, to accomplish, while other top Bolsheviks were. He was busy editing a Bolshevik newspaper.
