If all the stump oratory of party leaders was narrowed down to simple and comprehendible phrases, the essence of the encounter would be as follows. Trotsky considered that revolution in Russia wasn’t the aim, but was a way to start a revolution fire in more mature countries, which in the end should have lead to the global victory of Communism. Stalin considered that Bolsheviks’ victory in Russia was so unique that it was valuable on its own, and it was necessary not to export the revolution further, but to start building Socialism in the country relived from burden of Capital.
“Struggle for the party” began around this ideological core. Trotsky announced that “construction of the independent socialistic society wasn’t possible in any country of the world” and thus called to start external revolution war. “The socialistic revolution, – he wrote, – starts in the national arena, develops into the international one and finishes in the global one. Thus, the social revolution becomes permanent in a new and wider meaning. It can’t end until the new society finally triumphs all over the planet”.
Leon Davydovitch Trotsky was going to do “the global revolution” further, as Western security services ordered him to. This meant he was ready to sacrifice millions of Russian men to foreign interests
Stalin and his followers objected to that and accused the author of the permanent revolution theory of oppositionism and of attempts to divide the party. “We can and must built socialism in the USSR. However, to build socialism it is necessary to exist in the first place. It is necessary to take a break from war, to prevent intervention attempts, to win a minimum of international conditions…”[58]
Trotsky applied his entire gift of oratory and polemics to outmatch his less eloquent rival. At that period Stalin and Trotsky spoke a lot to convict each other. Having expressed their arguments, they started to crack each other down. The most dreadful weapons applied were quotes from Lenin, whose works could provide anything at all, which is well-known. There is no point in providing all arguments used by the opponents, as these were rather dull and could take even the most interested reader to the land of Morpheus. Let’s find out some more interesting things. What was going on at the top of the Soviet party? What was there behind the theoretical (prima facie) argument of Stalin and Trotsky?
Historians are trying to find some grains of sense in tons of verbal shells of Marxist kind, which the opponents produced during this discussion. However, the truth is somewhere else. It is in the biography of Stalin and Trotsky, in history of our revolution and its origin. It is even with where the opponents had been before the Russian Empire crushed and in how they appeared at the top of the Bolsheviks’ party.
During the February revolution Joseph Stalin stayed exiled to Siberia. As he needed to get to the boiling Petrograd, he simply took a train after he had been amnestied by the Temporary Government and came to the capital of Russia. Then the hot-tempered Georgian became a true follower of Lenin and obediently fulfilled all instructions of the Leader. Stalin was rather indirectly involved into organization of the October revolution[59]. And he had nothing to do with opaque financial support provided to the Bolsheviks’ party…
It was all the difference of the world with Trotsky. When the February revolution happened, he was in faraway America, where he was doing nothing, according to his story. Trotsky was a revolutionary by profession. By all accounts, he was a highly-paid worker, because he had 10 thousand dollars in his pocket, when he was leaving for his Motherland. Now after quiet devaluation of fazool this amount may seem laughable. But in the beginning of the century the American currency was no match to what it is nowadays. This amount can easily be multiplied by 20 or 30. And mind, he had the money in his pocket, some kind of cash allowance. Primary amounts the Americans bankers provided for the Russian revolution were received through accounts of the neutral Sweden and brought by unfeatured persons of no-reputation in their cases. No one claims that Vladimir Ilyitch himself brought a thick case with money in a sealed wagon. Though, anyway, Bolsheviks had loads of money. Who did they get that money from? From Germans? Well, some of it, indeed, but it is to be understood that significant amount of “German” money received by Lenin was paid through credits, provided to Germany by America. Just like Lenin, Trotsky was related to opaque backstairs, related to foreign security services. Having come back to Russia, Trotsky and Lenin quickly united and instantly forgot about their bygone disagreements. It must also be noted that Trotsky joined the Bolsheviks’ party as late as in summer 1917. However, he applied much more efforts to organize the October revolution than any Bolshevik leader, including Lenin.
Joseph Vissarionovitch Stalin pursued interest of Russia, which at that time was called the USSR, in his politics
Differently speaking, Leon Davydovitch Trotsky was a representative of the American capital (or Anglo-Saxon Intelligence Services) in the new revolutionary Russia. Thus, he performed certain actions and expressed certain ideas…
One fact shall be announced, and everything about Trotsky will become clear. In early 20-ies he was the Head of the People’s Commissariat of communication lines. Being headed by Leon Davydovitch, this company signed an agreement that would do credit to any Plunder and Flee Inc., and which made the Securities and Exchange Company look as a derisive and amateurish project. It was the agreement about bulk purchase of steam locos in Sweden from Nydqvist & Holm AB.
Everything was so very interesting in that order. Firstly, the amount, which was 1,000 steam locos. Secondly, the price, which was 200 million golden rubles. However, other details were also peculiar. Everyone knows that Sweden is not the Motherland of elephants, but the signees of that agreement somehow left out that Sweden was not top-of-the-range in regard to global locomotive construction. Nydqvist & Holm AB even had no production opportunities to produce the goods ordered by the Soviet party. So, the parties agreed that Russia would pay money, the Swedish would build a plant with that money, and then the locos would be produced and sent to us.
When you want to buy shoes, do you have to credit the shoe seller, so that he would to build a tannery? If someone needed locos that much, why didn’t they order them somewhere else? And if they were needed that much, why did the Soviet party agree to wait for five years?
Nydqvist & Holm AB had never constructed more than 40 locos per year. But at that time it decided to brace itself up and to produce as much as 50 locos in 1921! After that the order was evenly spread within five years, when the Swedish should have been building a plant with our money. In 1922 the buyer should have received 200 locos, and since 1923 till 1925 it was 250 locos per year[60]. At that the Soviet party wasn’t only a buyer, it was a creditor. And it wasn’t the advance payment for the locos. In May 1920 the Swedish company received not only an advance payment of 7 million Swedish crones, but also a non-interest loan of 10 million crones “to built a mechanical workshop and a boiler-house”. According to the agreement this loan should have been paid back during the period, when the last 500 locos would have been delivered.
If the Soviet party decided to reduce its order, the Swedish would be allowed not to pay the loan back! And the Soviet party could do so, if dispatch of locos would be delayed due to the fault of the Swedish part. And the agreement didn’t contain any conditions that would allow to terminate the agreement with the Swedish company.
However, it wasn’t all. The

It is not the open preparation of the October revolution, but the main backstage kind of work. By now there is not a single fact confirming directly or indirectly that Stalin was related to Western Intelligence Services. Stories of his cooperation with the tsarist secret police are a different thing, but still there is no proof of that. Joseph Vissarionovitch can be called “an honest revolutionary”, as far as the term of honesty can be applied to this category of people.
