The way people reviewed the results of Stalin's and Brezhnev's activities, now they are reviewing the results of Yeltsin's activities, and sometime they will also review the results of Putin's activities. I've lived long enough to know that you can be idealized in life and branded after death.

This is fantastic. Who is Lee Juan Yew, though? Possibly a mistake? - I looked it up but can't find anybody by that name.

As the author of this quiz, I can deduce my personal opinion about these people from the quotes:

1. Benito Mussolini. What a caricatured dictator he is, it's amazing how a man whose words now seem ridiculously barbaric could lead an entire country

2. Adolf Hitler. Now he also looks rather caricatured, but there is a cold cruelty in his words, and, surprisingly, pragmatism and fanaticism at the same time. Unlike Mussolini, this man's words frighten with their falsehood and inhumanity even now.

3. Lee Kuan Yew A very tough, but very wise and insightful person. Authoritarian, but authoritative

4. Idi Amin. A complete cynical maniac. His speech reads a narrow-minded mind along with a cruel bloodlust

5. Niyazov. The same stupid boss is a tyrant who unexpectedly rose to power. I can't call him a very cruel tyrant, but I see his little man in a big position

6. Vladimir Putin. He clearly knows how to speak brightly, aphoristically and make people pay attention to himself. Despite the fact that the phrases have a very peculiar, relaxed tone, they contain a serious message that makes a cold mind. Do not underestimate this man, he is very tough and calculating, his actions are always one step ahead.

7. Indira Gandhi. She is a very tough, very serious woman, while her loyalty to her country is undisguised. It commands respect even with controversial statements.

7. Hafez Assad. Very cruel and reckless. I don't think he was a grandiose and astute mind like Lee, Putin or Gandhi, his quotes are too loud, aggressive and filled with senseless hatred.

8. Duvalier. Complete madness. How such a mad man was able to retain power is a mystery (American help?). Moreover, my son did not succeed

9. Ceausescu. Clearly not stupid, but also not in his right mind. Apparently, before the fall, he realized that he was trapped in capitalist countries and that he had outsmarted himself thanks to his ego or something else, but frantically tried to avoid the prepared end.
