Russia: After 95 years on public display, Lenin's body will be laid to rest in Ulyanovsk

101 years after his death and 95 years on display in the famous Red Square Mausoleum, Vladimir Lenin will share the fate of ordinary people. The decision by the Russian Interior Ministry, made three days ago, is already causing major reactions, both from communists and Russians regardless of ideology.

According to the decision, the Mausoleum will be permanently closed and Lenin's body will be buried in his birthplace, Ulyanovsk, on September 3, 2025, in an official ceremony attended by high-ranking government officials.
