Marshal of the Soviet Union Kliment Efremovich Voroshilov left an ambiguous mark in the history of our country. This is undoubtedly a complex, outstanding and at the same time controversial personality. Voroshilov is still judged in different ways: some call him Stalin's faithful friend, the first red officer, a fighter for strengthening the Red Army, a commander from the people; others - Stalin's "lackey," squire of the formidable "father of peoples," executioner of the Red Army, mediocre military leader, cunning opportunist, because with all the rulers of the Soviet Union - Stalin, Khrushchev, Brezhnev - Voroshilov was held in high esteem.
