Nikolai Burdenko
Nikolai Burdenko was a prominent Soviet surgeon and a key figure in the investigation of the Katyn massacre. He led a Soviet commission that conducted a controversial exhumation of the victims in 1944, which aimed to disprove the responsibility of the Soviet regime for the killings. Despite his medical expertise, Burdenko's efforts were overshadowed by political motivations, and his findings were manipulated to serve the Soviet narrative.
