Yes, the Decembrists were almost all rounded up and executed. But Trotsky was not “allowed” to live in Mexico, he was first internally exiled to Alma Ata (now Almaty, Kazakhstan), then deported to Turkey, then Norway, France and then was received by President Lazaro Cardeñas in Mexico.
Throughout this time Stalin was transpiring to have him killed, first by a show trial in n which he was sentenced to death in absentia. And then in actuality in 1940 with an ice ax by a KGB assassin.
Good thread, to revisit some history!
