moscow and leningrad were two competing power centers in the soviet union. researchers argue that the motivation behind the cases was joseph stalin's fear of competition from the younger and popular leningrad leaders – who had been fêted as heroes following the city's siege. stalin's desire to keep power was combined with his deep distrust of anyone from leningrad from the time of stalin's involvement in the russian revolution, russian civil war, execution of grigory zinoviev and the right opposition. among stalin's competitors from leningrad who were also assassinated were two former mayors of the city: sergei kirov and leon trotsky; whose appointed subordinates continued to work in the city government for years after they left office. during the siege of leningrad, the city leaders were relatively autonomous from moscow. survivors of the siege became national heroes, and leaders of leningrad again gained much clout in the soviet central government in moscow.
