What would happen to Stalin if he were captured?

I would say Stalin would be executed and so would much of the government and military officials

>I'm just wondering, if Germans actually conquered Moscow, how would they treat the Soviet government

They woudln't even if Moscow fell unless omething seriously bizarre happened. Taking of a city, even a realatively smallish and undergarrisoned city a la Minsk, was the task of a week in optimal conditions. Moscow would have been enormously tougher to crack, and attempting to do so would have taken months at least.

So yes, while Stalin almost certainly would have been executed if the Germans got their hands on him, they have these things called trains that can get him to Kuybuyshev with the rest of the evacuated government should things get too hot.

Stalin's son Yakov was captured by the Germans as a Red Army soldier. He died in a concentration camp in 1943.

Germans wanted to change for Paulus. Stalin refused that offer.

tbqh Stalin hated his guts so the Germans probably did him a favor.

I wouldn't say he let him die because of hatred. He was just a cold motherfucker. I once read about him, that when Germans offered him this change, he said ,,What would all the Soviet fathers think, if I realeased my son only because he has my name" or something like that

>Dzhugashvili and his father Stalin never got along. Allegedly once Stalin referred to Dzhugashvili as a "mere cobbler". Their tense relationship was exacerbated when Dzhugashvili and his Jewish fiancée, Zoya Gunina, attempted to inform Stalin of their engagement. According to Dzhugashvili's stepmother Nadezhda Alliluyeva, she saw a young woman running away from the family's Moscow dacha in tears. When Alliluyeva entered the house, she saw a despairing Dzhugashvili, who immediately left to his bedroom. It was revealed that when Dzhugashvili and Gunina told Stalin of their engagement, he became enraged.[citation needed] Stalin's rage caused Gunina's flight from the dacha, and Dzhugashvili to attempt suicide in his room via firearm. He missed his heart and hit his lung instead; while his stepmother Alliluyeva tended to his wound and called the doctor, his father is quoted as saying, "He can't even shoot straight".[3]

But nonetheless Stalin's refusal was probably a great morale boost in the eyes of troops and civilians.

Sounds like propaganda
>Stalin turned the offer down, allegedly saying, "I will not trade a Marshal for a Lieutenant."

Unlike Stalin, here's a loving uncle

What happened to the French government?

Yeah, probably that.

>>2527801
Do you think he fucked Geli?

As far as I know, Geli and Adolf (lol) never had sex.
I've also read, that Hitler once wanted Geli to piss on his head. Idk if it's true, but he surely wasn't a great uncle

Stalin was never in any danger of being captured so this is a non issue

Anyway, Party underlings would have taken over, probably a triumvirate of Beria, andrei zhadanov, and Molotov. The USSRs survival was at stake and they would have continued the war

The Germans offers a prisoner exchange for him and Stalin refused on the basis that his son wasn't worth anymore than any other POW
