      Seems it is you that should study history. Russia fought the Nazis only once Hitler turned on them.

      The Soviet Union and Nazi Germany signed the Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact in August 1939. It was publicly a non-aggression treaty, but it included a secret protocol in which eastern European countries were divided into spheres of interest.

        you do realize this treaty failed, because nazis invaded them anyway and the soviet union defeated nazi germany?

        understand the context in which you are saying this before equating the soviet union to modern russia.

          Awfully similar if you ask me. ✔️Dictator then and now. ✔️Russia choosing to invade their neighbors instead of allying with Europe for the common good ✔️ Russia working secretly with their allies to carve up Eastern Europe
