Evil commie Nikita Khrushchev :)
After recent heated debates about Soviet poltical system I thought about former Soviet poltical leaders and recalled one very evil commie - Nikita Khrushchev. The one who was the participant of Caribbean crisis. :wink:
A lot of people think he was stupid an poke fun at him because of his wild obsession with the corn, his colloquial speech, constant cursing and that incident at the meeting of the United Nations Organization when he took off his shoe and banged the table with it cursing in very funny way to express his disagree.
Yes, he made some mistakes and said some things I don't agree with but actually I like the guy.
After all he was the one who revealed Stalin's crimes, rehabilitated political prisoners and started soviet space program (first launch of the sputnik and first man in the space).

Here's his monument on his grave at Vagankovskoye cemetery in Moscow:

The author is Ernst Neizvestny
Half of it is black and the other one is white which is a symbol of his ambivalent role in Soviet history. He has accomplished many great things and made great many mistakes. I think he's the most ambiguous politic in the whole Russian history.

Probably in English it is, but in Russian it's called Caribbean.
After all Cuba is in Caribbean Sea. :wink
