Surprised no one has made the Putin comparison.
Not arguing that he's a Leninist but in terms of building industrial and national might over decades under constant attack from the West, Putin:
Rebuilt the RF from the "shock therapy" of the 90s into a true sovereign great power. Brought the oligarchs under the control of the state and out of politics. Rebuilt the partnership with the Chinese. Western defeat in Ukraine is now a fait accompli, Russia will get all of their "maximalist demands" and more. They will likely reclaim all three of the Black Sea jewels founded by Catherine the Great. Very world-historical-figure to me
