Well, not according to Khrushchev’s de-Stalinization:
"Khrushchev would be remembered for his more consumerist approach and for the guarantees of basic freedoms he granted to Soviet citizens. The peasants’ bondage to the collective farms was relaxed, and they were given freedom of movement within the country. The educated elites were allowed, on certain strictly defined conditions, to make contacts with foreign colleagues and even occasionally travel abroad. Finally, Khrushchev, despite all his blunders in the international arena, made a decisive contribution to the establishment of peaceful coexistence between the Soviet Union and the United States, and between East and West in general. These achievements endured under his successors"
"Finally, the fact that the first secretary could become a private citizen so peacefully was in itself a remarkable achievement of Khrushchev’s de-Stalinization"
