Stalin was a big fan of genocide, especially in Ukraine. He also deported all the Jews to Siberia and created a "Jewish Oblast" in the middle of nowhere, the only place Soviet Jews were allowed to live unless they were extremely useful.

What a colossal bastard. His only benefit was he fought Hitler.

And he was perfectly happy to work with Hitler until Hitler betrayed him with Barbarossa. Colossal bastard doesn't begin to describe what an absolute fuckface he was.
