Buuxi weedha soo socota: Tirada guud ee hadhuudhka laga soo goostay baadiyaha Soviet (39.6 milyan oo tan) waxay ahayd tiradii labaad ee ugu yarayd taariikhda Soviet, waxay ka horeysay kaliya goosashada 1921 (36.2 milyan oo tan). Si kastaba ha noqotee, goosashada 1946 waxaa lagu beeray aag ka ballaaran goosashada 1921, maadaama Midowga Soofiyeeti uu xilligaas qabsaday dalalka Baltiga,
Bessarabia iyo Bucovina, iyo sidoo kale bariga Poland, sidaas darteed kordhinta tirada dhulka si loo goosto. Sida uu tilmaamay taariikhyahan Stephen G. Wheatcroft, warbixinta saxda ah ee ku saabsan dalagga hadhuudhka ee Midowgii Soofiyeeti waqtigaas waxaa sii adkeeyay been abuurka weyn ee tirakoobka dowladda Soofiyeeti, oo qaar ka mid ah taariikhyahannada kale ay u qaateen inay run yihiin.
