Lenin’s statement is widely known, which well illustrates the degree of importance that the Bolsheviks attached to electricity in the life of the new country: “Communism is Soviet power plus the electrification of the entire country.”
Later, starting from the 1930s, Joseph Stalin attached great importance to the creation and implementation of electric agricultural tractors.
