Who was Leon?

Trotksy, Lenin, Stalin -okay they were all in the same timeframe. So Russians were having infighting amongst each other? No national pride as Russians? Or was nationalism not a mindset rather idealism?

Were they apart of what was the Triple Entente? Or they left during it?

This is a quote -


In response to Austria-Hungary's invasion of Serbia in 1914, Russian government officials denounced the Austro-Hungarian invasion as an "ignoble war" on a "weak country

Russian government official Nikolaĭ N. Shebeko stated: "the attack on Serbia by a powerful empire such as Austria, supposedly in order to defend its existence, cannot be understood by anyone in my country; it has been considered simply as a means of delivering a death-blow to Serbia
....in the Balkans
On 30 July 1914, Russia enacted a general mobilization. The day after general mobilization was enacted, Austria-Hungary's ally Germany declared war on Russia prior to expected Russian intervention against Austria-Hungary.

Following a raid by Ottoman warships on the Russian port of Odessa, Russia declared war on the Ottoman Empire in November 1914

So America was down with Russia during this time? Or is this a different timeframe from the days of Leon? Much earlier?
