Except for that Operation Barbarossa thing.
“Aside from that, Mrs. Lincoln, how was the play?”
Putin knows where his friends and allies are.
It was just a matter of who would violate it first.
Mr Putin conveniently leaves out the secret articles where the two powers divide up eastern europe into their respective spheres of influence. what he is saying is true...there isnt anything wrong in and of itself with a non-agression pact. his lie is a lie of omission.
You’ve posted a scattershot of threads all at once and all about Putin, there Nube.
Now if we had a viable leader in this country I’d say let’s stop his aggression. Now in case you haven’t noticed we have our own little dictator who would grab complete control of America in a ny minute and his term ain’t over for 2 years so we must be vigilant. Any foreign activity by our despot is suspect and I question any military action he might take as being on the WRONG SIDE.
For the time being I believe it behoves us to worry about the damage being foisted upon us here at home by this regime and leave Russia for Europe to worry about.
Putin: “I mean, c’mon. Everyone knows non-aggression is good, right?”
“...Germany invaded Poland...”
Yeah? And 16 days later, the Rooskies took the other half of Poland.
Who are we to judge?
It is not a secret that Russia was in a proxy war with Nazi Germany via Spain earlier than ANY of allies.
As far as 1938 Russia was warning free world on Hitler seeking alliance with anyone on block to deal with him but it has fallen on deaf ears.
As for Poland it is not innocent. It has joined Germany in a similar way to dismember Czechoslovakia right before it was attacked itself.
But it has somehow turned to be on a good side with a victim card.
All of the above are known historical facts.
That pact was the reason WW2 started when it did.
The moment Hitler got the news he slammed his hand hard down on a table and shouted “we have them!”.
The Soviets got what they deserved when Adolf double-crossed them.
Folks in Poland, Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia and Finland might beg to differ.
