Character evaluation:?

People's Republic of China (PRC) leader Mao Zedong commented on Khrushchev after dealing with him many times: "Khrushchev has courage, and this man can make trouble. I think he is very troubled, and the future may be difficult. " "I only tied with Stalin, and I still have a slight advantage over Khrushchev."

1in August, 980, People's Republic of China (PRC) leader Deng Xiaoping said in an interview with Italian journalist farage: "Some people in the west say that you are Khrushchev of China! What do you think of this? " Deng Xiaoping laughed heartily and said, "I know Khrushchev. I personally have dealt with him for ten years. I know this man. It is foolish to compare me to Khrushchev. "

Khrushchev's New Deal violently impacted the "sacred and inviolable" Stalin model and opened the floodgate of socialist reform in the Soviet Union, which was exploratory and groundbreaking. However, due to the lack of correct theoretical guidance, overall planning and scientific experiments, he failed to fundamentally break the Stalin model.

In the Brezhnev era, although the living standard of the Soviet Union was constantly improving, the continuous decline of agriculture was mainly due to industrial development. When faced with food crisis (especially 1972 and 1975), Brezhnev adopted Khrushchev's method-buying food from the west to avoid famine.

Some historians believe that it was Khrushchev's reform that revived Soviet society and led to the short-lived prosperity of Brezhnev era. Russian people's views on Khrushchev are very complicated. According to a survey, only Nicholas II and Khrushchev were recognized by Russians in the 20th century.
