Answer 1

Farmers (those were wealthy farmers which the Soviet regime didn’t like)

Answer 2

The correct answer is B) Soviet Russian farmers slated for elimination by Stalin.

The Kulaks were Soviet Russian farmers slated for elimination by Stalin.

Prosperous peasants in the Soviet Union were called Kulaks. Joseph Stalin did not like Kulaks and he tried to reduce its economic power and influence when Stalin changed the agriculture system in the Soviet Union. The new Russian system called collectivization forced peasants to give up their property, their own farms, to form collective farms. Of course, Kulaks opposed to that decision.
