Krushchev also ordered the Hungarian revolt of 1956 crushed, threatened to ‘bury’ the west, approved of the building of the Berlin Wall, and increased support of communist insurgents in several nations.

He had his good points, but IMO the bad is still sufficient to damn him in my eyes.

Krushchev had a pretty low bar to clear in order to be considered “better” than his predecessors and alternates.
