Why Germany and the Soviet Union Became "Allies": the Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact (1939)

Описание: Before the outbreak of WW2 Germany and the Soviet Union signed the Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact (also known as the Hitler-Stalin Pact). It was a non-aggression pact between these two totalitarian states officially known as the Treaty of Non-Aggression between Germany and the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. It was signed by Foreign Ministers Joachim von Ribbentrop and Vyacheslav Molotov. There was a secret protocol about spheres of influence across Poland, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia and Finland. When implemented with the German invasion of Poland, the Soviets invaded from the east. The USSR annexed Eastern Poland. Later the Baltic States, Bessarabia and Northern Bukovina shared the same fate. Finland resisted and this led to the Winter War. The Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact when Hitler started Operation Barbarossa.
