After researching local and provincial archives, Frank Dikotter detailed the 1958-62 great famine's vast horror, thus put Mao Tsetung as a monster in the same league as Hitler and Stalin, and yet many Chinese still blame the famine on the Soviet Union, as they were brainwashed into believing that it was Soviet Union who was snatching food from the mouths of starving Chinese by insisting that Beijing export grain to repay Moscow's loans.
