Hitler killed about 12 million people, half of them Jews.
Much more than 12 millon people.
Please, read something about war on the Eastern front, something about Lenigrad and its population, about Khatin(a village in Belarus).
Hitler killed more than 19 million citizens of USSR! Not soldiers, but citizens.

Stalin was directly responsible for murdering 20 million of his own people,
It's a fairy tail
You have never been in USSR. And my grand-grand-father was the chief of a big factory in Jaroslavl. My grandmother told me about him and about that times. She told me how he went to Staligrad front and fought there(remember, he was a high-class engeneer, so he could stay at home - but he was the real patriot! Thanks to teh real patriots the USSR won the war! The USSR saved the world from the nazism!). Hi died in 1943 in some Ural hospital.

victims was 30 million, or even 40! These figures do not include Russia's 18 million war dead.
Ha-ha
The population of Soviet Union was abot 200 000 000 people. You now, that in than time Stalin sent to prisons and killed mainly male people(ages 18-60). So, if he killed about (not even 30!) 20 million male people. So, who had to fight with nazi? Women, children and old people?
So, numbers about 20-40 million are lie!
Remember - 7 million soviet soldiers saved Europe from nazi, and about 6.9 million died on WW2.
PS - You can say something about PQ-17 and other convoys?
If you can found Valentine Piquil(one of the greatest soviet writers) - "Requim for PQ-17"(Валентин Пикуль - "Реквием конвою PQ-17") - read it. Piquil was there. He wrote really true story.
