The Order of the Don Ataman, in exile, Lieut. General M.N. Grabbe, June 28, 1941:
"And can we forget the friendly assistance that the German Army rendered us in the struggle we waged? All the Cossacks who took part in the struggle preferred to leave their homeland in 1920, go to a foreign land, where an unknown future, hardships and difficulties awaited them. The Don army did not obey the invaders... By the very existence of each Cossack in a foreign land, it affirmed the ideological struggle against communism and the Bolsheviks, waiting for that cherished moment when the red flags blow and fall from the Kremlin occupied by enemies... And now, at last, the hour, so long-awaited, has struck. The banner of the armed struggle against communism, against the Bolsheviks, and against the Soviet Union has been raised. This banner was raised by a powerful people, at who's strength the world today is amazed."

"Soviet Paradise" - RT Short Documentary
"For me it's neither paradise nor hell. It's one of the best places in Moscow that calls for profound attention and work to restore it. That doesn't mean restoring elements of a certain regime, but something created by the best artists and sculptors of our country." (Sergey Sobyanin, Moscow's Mayor)
"There was a substitution. One religion substituted another. But the new one was purely pagan."
The Exhibition of Achievements of National Economy (VDNKh complex) is considered by many the best park in Moscow. The chief architect was Vyacheslav Oltarzesky, he wanted a statue to Stalin to be the focal point. In 1938 he was arrested by the Soviet government and imprisoned. The documentary shows parts of the restoration effort as a tribute to the sculptors, architects and artists of the time.
