Actually Russians did it much better than Chinese do. Stalin purged his political opponents and many innocent people, but he respect scientists with great honor and under his rule, Russia quickly transformed from an backward agricultural nation into an industrial superpower--I mean with skilled industrialized labor.
their scientists do not have to learn the bullshit Stalin Collection.
While look at what Mao did to the natural science education and scientists in China!!! How come that people here still praise this tyrant.
