Should there be monuments for Leon Trotsky in Russia?
Not one statue have I seen about him. This is the guy who organized October revolution, Red Army and GRU. Russians don't still believe those stalinist lies, now do they. Many rich western marxists might also come as tourists to see those monuments for this important historic figure.

No
he might be an important historic figure (good or bad) but so were others
There were many rulers in Soviet Union, not everyone deserves a monument.

People always argue if statues of Lenin/Stalin and other communists should be in the cities at all. Trotsky is even a more provocative figure since he proposed way more radical and aggressive form of a communist state than Lenin or Stalin.

He didn't do much for Soviet Union and he was killed before he can do anything. Stalin killed him (my opinion).
