Full Daily Telegraph title:
Vladimir Putin says there was nothing wrong with Soviet Union’s pact with Adolf Hitler’s Nazi Germany
There was another Nazi Germany that wasn’t Adolf’s?

Besides, we all know about the Munich Agreement, so nothing was hushed up. The USSR does the same thing, and by Putin it’s OK, funny enough.

One might guess that the people of Poland, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia, etc., would have a different take on this.

Not that Mr. Putin could possibly care.

Bah! They were only carving up Polish Territory!

Austrians and Russians had been doing that for Years!

He offered to split the Ukraine with Poland. The Poles turned him down. Perhaps he has an offer for the Germans that would resolve that issue.

I’m pretty sure Putin knows the Soviet Union won WWII.

That must be why the Soviet prosecutor at Nuremberg went nuts when von Weizsacker revealed the existence of the Secret Protocol to the Pact. You know, the one that cynically carved up Eastern Europe.

Stalin cut his deal with Hitler because he believed Britain and France wanted to defeat Germany at the cost of copious amounts of Russian blood. He figured that the European states would exhaust themselves and he would clean up in Europe at little cost. But the French folded and Stalin was left to face Hitler with an army that wasn’t ready because most of the officers had been purged.

And so it happened that Stalin defeated Hitler...at the cost of copious amounts of Russian blood. Yeah, Vlad. It was a heck of a deal.

It sure as hell doesn’t look like he consults any PR people before he speaks publicly about anything. LOL

He’s worse than 0bama off script, when it comes to that. Maybe Putin should go on the ‘prompter’ from now on. lol

Well, I only read this portion of it but he seems to say that that was a common thing to do at the time and should be viewed through that lens.

Not a firm assessment, however, since I haven’t time to read more of it right now. I don’t trust headlines that make conclusions for me.

They were purged because of a clever ruse perpetrated by the Nazis. They used fake radio messages to make Stalin's secret police within the Army think that his officer corps was full of spies and traitors.

Stalin fell for it hook line and sinker, and had roughly one-third of his commanders shot by firing squads.

The Soviets wanted the Non-Aggression Pact for one reason....to have the War in the West, so the German, French and British armies would be bled dry, to allow the Soviets to swoop in from the East.

It actually was a blessing in disguise that France fell as quick as it did.
