Stalin was a Hitler's ally no more than a person, yielding to a ransom demand from a kidnapper. His one and main purpose was to delay Germany attack on USSR, to prepare for war as good as it was possible. Anything else would be a suicide.

It's just a part of massive denigration campaign.

Stalin was a mass murderer:

"The exact number of deaths caused by Stalin's regime is a subject of debate, but it is widely agreed upon that it is on the order of millions."
