10. Andrey Vlasov
Andrey Vlasov was a Soviet general who famously defected to Nazi Germany during World War II. Captured by the Germans, he went on to form and command the Russian Liberation Army, composed of Soviet POWs, to fight against his homeland. Vlasov justified his actions as opposition to Stalin’s regime, but most Russians viewed him as a traitor. After the war, he was captured by Soviet forces and executed for treason.
