And now for a completely different story in our search for the truth. In the late 1930s the dreams of the Russian revolution for a better world were shattered by the paranoia of the new Soviet leader, Joseph Stalin. Millions of people were labelled enemies of the revolution and sent to labour camps or gulags. Many millions died or were executed.
