There is no international system for transcribing Cyrillic.

So here is the spelling of the name of a certain Prigozhin and Khrushchev in various languages.

Recollection of Kaganovich

Khrushchev writes that Molotov and I were on bad terms, at daggers drawn, and that we quarreled. This is untrue. When he and I worked in the Central Committee, we worked in harmony, but when he became chairman of Sovnarkom, and I became a minister [i.e. people's commissar], we had disputes on practical issues. I claimed additional rails [for the railroads] and more investment, and Mezhlauk, head of Gosplan, did not let me have them, and Molotov supported him. […] On the same grounds Khrushchev claims that Ordzhonikidze, like me, quarreled and fought with Molotov. But Sergo [Ordzhonikidze], like me, quarreled with him about investments and his treatment of industry. We argued, and we appealed to Stalin. This offended Molotov—why are we complaining about Sovnarkom? But we considered that the Politburo was the supreme court of appeal. ( Chuev, Tak govoril Kaganovich, 61. )

I'm beginning the release of Nikita Khrushchev Presents: Puzzle World! today.

It's a short chiptune soundtrack to a hypothetical puzzle game based on the Cold War.

Review: One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich - by Alexander Solzhenitsyn

Under the premiership of Nikita Khrushchev there was a post-Stalin easing of oppression emerging from the Kremlin and a Cold War ‘Victorian’ Ice Age thaw for writers allowed this remarkable, unique, little tale to unbelievably evade the censor and make it into the real world, even traversing the fixed barriers of the Iron Curtain. It was common, particularly during the purges of Uncle Joe, to…

Transcription of 2 screenshots: text reads

Deng: We think that Stalin’s contribution to the revolution is much more important than the mistakes he made. To use the Chinese way, the score for Stalin would be thirty percent to seventy percent: thirty for his errors and seventy for his merits. Furthermore, Chairman Mao agreed with me on the question of Stalin’s score, and, after the twentieth Congress of the CPSU, members of the Communist Party of China expressed a very clear judgment of Stalin. We said that we would always continue to consider his writings as classic works of the international Communist movement. You know, Stalin made mistakes even where the Chinese revolution was concerned; for example, after World War II he didn’t want us to sever ties with the Kuomintang or to begin the war of liberation. But even this does not cloud our judgment of him.

Fallaci: And Khrushchev?

Deng: Khrushchev? What good has Khrushchev ever done?

Fallaci: He denounced Stalin.

Deng: And you see that as a good thing?

[…]

Fallaci: What if I told you that in the West they call you the Chinese Khrushchev?

Deng: [He laughs]. Listen, they can call me anything they like in the West, but I know Khrushchev well; I dealt with him personally for ten years, and I can assure you that comparing me to Khrushchev is insulting.
