World Notes

No wonder Vladimir Lenin looks pensive in this rare close-up taken in his tomb. It's bad enough that his eponymous city is St. Petersburg again, that statues of him are toppling everywhere and that the country he hammered together is falling apart. Now there are even threats to remove his embalmed remains from the Red Square Mausoleum, where they have lain in state since 1924.
