Putin hasn't finished ruling Russia just yet - plenty of time to match that score. Hopefully, the media spotlight, sanctions and some ingenious politics will keep him more contained than Stalin was.
It's too early to judge Putin on just how murderous he might be. Just wait until he gets old and grumpy.
