The Official Cause of Lenin's Death Was a Lie. Here's What They Found in Classified Documents.

On January twenty-first, nineteen twenty-four, Vladimir Lenin died at the age of fifty-three in a country estate outside Moscow — and the Soviet state immediately told the world it was natural causes, premature atherosclerosis, a great man worn out by his devotion to the revolution. For seventy years, no one was allowed to ask further questions. Then the archives opened, and Soviet academician Yuri Lopukhin read three different versions of the same autopsy report, found the classified medical diary recording arsenic treatments that implied a diagnosis too explosive to publish, traced the true cause of death back to a bullet fired in nineteen eighteen that damaged the carotid artery and was never properly treated — and concluded that everything the official record said about how Lenin died was, at best, incomplete, and at worst, a deliberate construction built to protect the man who benefited most from Lenin's decline: Joseph Stalin, who managed the dying leader's isolation, suppressed his final written warning to the party, and inherited an empire the moment the last breath left the room at Gorki.
