Leon Trotsky vs. Josef stalin
- Main question was the Guns or Butter question
- Stalin is successful because of his position of the General Secretary
- He expels Trotsky from Soviet Union
- Trotsky was killed by the NKVD in Mexico City in 1940 (Ice pick)
But Trotsky has lost the Power Struggle before it even started. Stalin was the General Secretary of the Communist Party and because of this he was able to appoint the other important positions in the Communist Party and so he had many supporters in the important position. Furthermore, he expelled Trotsky from the Soviet Union and ordered to assassinate him later on.
