very. there were no such instructions. well he could have merely said it well actually all his words were written down as a rule. let's start our tour let's begin with the small dining room the room. stalin was particularly fond of this room which doubled as his study. there's a fireplace here stalin enjoyed spending time in front of it on long winter evenings hunting rifle found close by and started love to shoot and scare away the crows. on the first spring night of nine hundred fifty three he decided to sleep in this very room. the leader was so terrified of assassination attempts that he had several beds prepared for him around the house. not even his bodyguards knew where he would sleep each night
11:36 am
a decision that was to prove fatal. the. way slept on different couches put a chair and a lamp next to the couch where he was going to sleep because he usually read a book before falling asleep but i would be. on that night stalin went to bed at about four in the morning he had stayed up late with guests from his closest. nightly feasts were a regular affair. the bodyguards knew that there muster would not be up before noon . but at midday the bell in stalin's room. remained suspiciously silent by three pm he still had not a merged. body guards weren't allowed to call on him uninvited that was strictly prohibited. later in the afternoon duty officers became seriously concerned.
11:37 am
only by seven o'clock in the evening having received a letter from the kremlin to the officer on duty decided to take it to stalin. he found the soviet leader in the doorway of the next room lying unconscious on the floor. with you this is where he was found on this carpet between the table and the couch . it is still unclear what happened and you know there was a glass of mineral water here. he would it was lying there most likely he stood up and failed to get to the couch to feel the. stalin had suffered a massive stroke and there was no one close by to give him a. there was soon rumors that stalin had not just died but was murdered.
11:38 am
you know nor when a tyrant of such caliber dies these kinds of assumptions are always made of them that when a tyrant lives behind high walls there is always the feeling that his own circle might plot against him. stalin's worst fears of conspiracies and assassination may have come to pass with his sudden death the distrust of the people close to him so much that he fired his bodyguard nikolai plastic who had headed his security service for twenty years and was one of his most loyal and reliable people shortly after his dismissal. ended up in jail. for them one of the less it was deficient reason for the last six imprisonment was that he misbehaved and fooled around at the expense of the state the stella never blamed anyone for that he decided to get rid of him because blizzard could have held office for too long and have become unreliable and you. would stand beside the leader during all publications
11:39 am
he was a general who had finished only three classes of secondary school and had been decorated without having performed a single feat. stalin never knew that his personal bodyguard kept a secret diary of his time but the leader no one else did do so as stalin himself decide how and by whom he would be remembered in history. for many years flat six unique record of the stalin era was classified just recently has it been made available to the general public. it's the only unofficial testimony of a man who had been with stalin old time. used to wear an old shabby coat while for his wife nine years to to make him a new one but she needed to take his measurements to do so she could have taken his old clothes and made a new one of the same size of a tailless she failed to take his measurements as he flatly refused to say he did a new coat but we still managed to make him a new coat we changed it for

a new one when the chance arose stall him pretended that he hadn't noticed. listed . as a protected stella and was by his side for twenty years and of course he was deeply attached to style rules. in the evenings when we were on vacation we always had dinner together with secretary description and stone and joseph so to one of its jokes a lot and shared his memories from his palm he told us about his life in exile in the torah hans krege and those hours of leisure spent together with the leader will always remain the best hours of my life he was so likeable i always felt easy and free together with him. the diaries produce the impression that floods it like many other people formed an impaired judgment of what was going on instead of taking a critical view of the situation his mind was obscured with the ideology finally crafted by the leader who. was the only person allowed to take
11:41 am
pictures of stalin and his family at their country treat. in these photographs stalin is not the grand figure of a propaganda poster but i know a great about spending time with his family. in the one nine hundred thirty s. he trusted blessing implicitly even allowing him to look after his children. but then a great tragedy struck for which he would never recover. secret laboratory to mccurdy was able to build a new most sophisticated robot which all unfortunately doesn't give a darn about anything tunes mission to teach creation why it should care about

11:45 am
think that he did have a sense of guilt will it may have blamed the circumstances on her nature. but he certainly did have a sense of indirect guilt. the man who was said to have a heart of steel hardened even more just a few years later the country was swept by a wave of repression taking willetts the old bolsheviks the cream of the intelligentsia generals of the armed forces and all surviving relatives of both stalin's wives. often a desert his death stalin would never marry again. well. he believed that she. put it down betrayed him. it's well it's human not to blame oneself. he distanced himself from his children and moved to the conserve a country residence leaving his daughter and son of his former home with
11:46 am
a babysitter and make a level his chief of security. stalling was deep in grief off to his wife's death who was also his different his children were little of the time being a very busy person stalling could not afford to give them a lot of attention so we had to entrust the brief his kids to housekeeper carlina she was a well bred woman who was very fond of his children when both of them grew up and started school most of the responsibility for them also from me. the full version which he sank into solitude deep in his heart he was lonely even before that just like any person striving for power but after his wife's death he became a lonely in every sense of the word no one could ever replace his wife he went to bed later and later every night inviting people round to keep him company to deal. before his wife's death stalin's in a circle used to visit him with their own wives but often that there's
11:47 am
a little you have a past away it became a bed only affair. the large dining room in the consequently house was the center of the famous night feasts. stalin made his guests dunce the dining room still as the gramophone presented to him by churchill and when stalin played the records of his favorite songs. he was taken there from the small dining room after the stroke. of an improvised medical center was organized here people were trying to figure out what to do with human activity by the third of march it was clear that his brain had suffered irreversible damage the most innocent. doctors came to stalin's bedside too late at least twelve hours had passed before the unconscious leader was found. when the guards reported that stalin was on his
11:48 am
deathbed those closest to him were too afraid to go to his country home. minister was bizarre was this the minister of state security sim yawning and that was scared to enter when he arrived the minister of state security someone that everyone in the country feared was too afraid to come in i would imagine he would see stallin sick in his own bed and his eyes look at him and say why are you here. one of the most sinister figures of stone and in a circle turned out to be brave enough levante beriah he knew too well that all of his ministry of state security predisposes and ended up in front of a firing squad he also fell out of stun in favor and was very likely to be arrested soon the supporters were also being prosecuted. varia was the one who understood the situation in the highest realms of power so he
11:49 am
could not allow this to happen. moreover my grandfather told me that barrier had even posted that it was him it was responsible for stalin's death barry used to say that he saved everyone from the repression by the unpredictable insane dictator. or did the. area immediately realize just how serious condition was but he doctors from being called and left. the most dangerous thing was the fact that there was a trace of among the people close to stalin it was barium he was experienced and coming in to me cleverly disguised his motives and stomach trusted him that was his big mistake very long been striving for power. resorted to all possible ways one could think of he was capable of and. it was not just barry but every one of stalin's associates who had reason to see his demise i just left molotov and i just
11:50 am
does make a young one particularly fearful of the rest. terrified of conspiracy against him decided to completely restructure his circle and at the same time to intimidate the people of his country once again. it doesn't seem yeah it doesn't all families friends colleagues hundreds of people could have been affected so now it is even how to imagine that it could really be the case i won't be when he was given the list to remove the enemies of three people but their wives me one of these are designed to stand the cold of them all to be shown how could a person be so cruel or. just left molotov the man who had signed the secret protocol on the division of europe with the nazis and further reason to hate the head of state stalin had sent his wife. to a gulag. himself was deprived of any real power preparations were already being
11:51 am
made for his arrest while the tough grandson owes his own to stalin's death. year. to fish for both mullets oftentimes the same choosing are great at surviving really spirit but when they saw the first signs that my grandmother was going to be arrested suited to come up with a plan it was actually they got divorced and cossack ways it was their only chance for survival rates and the plan worked. that's how my mother stayed alive and gave birth to me. many people surrounding stalin had motive for murdering him however some didn't have the courage while others like the opportunity. stollen always replaced people as cabinet before they have the chance to hatch out. the leader deprived himself of family friends and relatives he replaced them with a party member of their greatest. just as he died suddenly it seemed to them that he had opened his eyes and raised his hand so they kneeled
11:52 am
down in fear of mediately they thought he would ask them why they had gathered at his bedside one of them about stalin had fallen victim to the very system he had filled in which everyone was mortally afraid of him will sing including the people closest to him so. while still in teetered between life and death those around him were already dividing up. stalin for the inevitable for four days soviet leader was pronounced dead on march the fifth one nine hundred fifty three. who should come the kotori soaps have started this is the couch that style and died on the lines didn't you mean there yet they were no the doctors asked to move in here and vats where he died dubiously should have.
11:53 am
by the end of his life stalin's children had become a disappointment to. his daughters redolent i was married twice both were unsuccessful dahlan did not approve of either of the husbands and she left for the united states and died in a retirement home all alone. son vassily a drinking problem. his grandson alexander bodansky chose to take his mother's maiden rather than bearing that of the steel hearted servia to lead a. new one i can't say that i loved my brother we'll go i was afraid of him but behold it was the greatest feeling i had towards. story and you may hate it when he took us to some parts together with him or wanted us to do some sports. from the from us that's it i never loved him as a loon who was often drunk yet i didn't understand it then when he was drunk he was a very difficult numbers pleasant man. which in general. it was called the
11:54 am
first soviet prince for a reason. at the age of twenty one he became an air force colonel commander of the military aviation regiment a twenty six he commanded the most district at twenty nine he was made left in a general. after his father's death and was stripped of his rank and awards a month later he was arrested and sentenced to eight years in jail. the once powerful soviet prince was hidden behind bars in solitary confinement under the false name of assyria. after serving his term he was sent into exile and because. one year later he died. and he more three years i couldn't forgive him many things i couldn't forgive him for what he done to my mother i couldn't forgive him the horrible childhood my sister and i had but i shall decide as i grow older.
11:55 am
you know now i feel very sorry for him but at the same figures he was a very talented person which was a cripple the life of. stalin died alone and it was huge an empty house there was no one there safe for the servants and bodyguards. he had eliminated everyone who was loyal to him people who had helped him with the revolution and with his repression people who had gathered at his home for holidays . the pictures of children on his walls had been cut from magazines just as his own sons and daughter had been cut from his life. is in a circle became his family the close of a country house was his new gremlin. was new to use names to the good we don't know how it must feel to be in stone and shoot that many think about it but i think it's ridiculous to be made because no one has ever found themselves
11:56 am
in such a position you could not even a single russian emperor. this is loneliness which is because this is the tragedy of soldiers. even though stalin lived for a short while after his stroke his inner circle had already betrayed him. historians believe that they deliberately prevented the doctors from attending to stunna. whether or not he could have recovered if help of being offered immediately remains a question no one can answer. that blue book witness some of the bulletins to if it is curious that there is an assumption that stalin's close associates from the central committee presidium and soviet leaders were criminals who could easily kill their chief i don't need to do this is very interesting and no one doubted that he had usually quit the. stalin's death put an end to the repression just a few days after his funeral the rehabilitation of stalin's victims began in the
11:57 am
past sixty years more than ten million people have been rehabilitated. while many have been terrified under stalin rule there was still some left him. after being released from prison his former personal bodyguard nikolayev lesser continue to write his diary. i was badly hurt by stalin after twenty five years of excellent work without making a single mistake receiving any rewards and acknowledgement i was thrown into jail despite my endless devotion he threw me into the hands of enemies but never not a single minute in my life no matter what state i was in did i have a grudge against all.
