Duration: 8 min 17 s
Description: Stalins stirring appearance on Red Square for the November 7 1941 anniversary celebration, when the German troops stood a short distance from Moscow, gave people faith in a seemingly hopeless moment that not only Moscow would withstand the invaders, just as it had withstood and destroyed Napoleon in 1812, but that the Soviet Union would survive as well.
