Editor,

If Russia has not been moved by all the killing going on in Syria (' Syria's massacre of the innocents' the Australian 28/5) and continues to block UN action on Syria then no one should be too surprised by the Russian stance. Afterall in their own country we need to remember they glorified a leader - Stalin - who killed off 20 million of his own people.

Yours sincerely,
