How Nikita Khrushchev pardoned Ukrainians in the 1950s

Democracy and Class Struggle has always taken a keen interest in the National Question in the Soviet Union and Andrei Fursov's views above in video should be contrasted with Yuri Slezkine here.

The Democracy and Class Struggle view of Nikita Khrushchev is that he was a recidivist of Trotskyism - the view of Lazar Kaganovitch who helped Khrushschev cover his trotskyist past - in his memoirs/interview before his death Kaganovitch regretted his mistake in enabling Khrushschev rise to power - we of course are living with the consequences of Kaganovitch's mistake in the destruction of the revolutionary CPSU (B) by Khrushschev.
