young Swedes, aged 15-20:

- 90% don�t know what Gulag was.

- 43% think that communism killed fewer than one million (a fifth think it killed fewer than 10,000).

- 40% believed that communism has increased global wealth

And it�s not just the past they are ignorant about:

- 82% don�t know that Belarus is a dictatorship.
