Orthodox Christianity triumph over bolshevism
The resurrected Sretenskii monastery is devoted to the New Martyrs – those thousands of Christians murdered by communists following the 1917 revolution. The new church’s decoration reflects this. Around the dome, for instance, are depictions of key saints of the Russian Orthodox Church, among whom are Emperor Nicholas II and his family, symbols of suffering at the hands of Bolshevism.

So did Vladimir Putin reject Bolshevism? He embraced Christianity and Capitalism to a certain extent. Communists are Atheists. They want to create the morality.
