...but the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact. How could someone betray such a thing, securing such peace and stability for the world-minus-Poland?

Russia literally kicked the Nazis ass by running away though.

Wait, wasn't that winter in Russia?

[–] Kvoth@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Also invading Finland, Romania, Latvia, Lithuania, and Estonia.
