The Red square in such case is closed. Likely, to not admit a national communistic party. Therefore Lenin celebrates in proud loneliness in the bulletproof sarcophagus.

    I don’t know much about Lenin - was he Good or Bad??

    It amazes me with that whole Communist thing that Russia + China were such Closed Societies that I can’t even name more than 5 Cities in either Country*
