“Stalin actually were actively looking for alliance with both British and France against Germany just prior to Molotov-Ribbentrop which is itself anything but alliance. It was actually a non-aggression pact, not alliance.”

That is a Soviet-Russian black propaganda used as disinformation. Stalin sought a Soviet alliance with Britain and France which would include terms which would preclude Britain and France from interfering with Soviet efforts to reconquer former Imperial Russian territories and dependencies in places such as the Baltic republics, Finland, Bessarabia, Czechoslovakia, and so forth. Britain and France were committed to defending the WWI Armistice terms and were therefore opposed to Soviet/Russian revanchist ambitions in Eastern Europe.

Statements claiming: “the Molotov-Ribbentrop which is itself anything but alliance. It was actually a non-aggression pact, not alliance.” are blatant lies. Stalin and the Soviet Union were deeply involved in an alliance with Germany beginning long before Hitler and the NAZIs came to power in Germany. Stalin and the Soviet Union had concluded an alliance with Germany in the 1920s to covertly train the German army and air force in violation of the terms of the WWI Armistice agreement. The Molotov-Ribbentrop agreement broadened this more than decade old alliance between the Soviet Union and Germany by agreeing to give the Soviet Union a freehand in the Soviet conquests of Eastern Poland and other Eastern European territories in exchange for Germany’s conquests of various Eastern European territories. In the event the Soviet Communists failed to win favorable influence inside the German officer corps and enlisted ranks and/or win control of the German government, Stalin prepared to followup its political campaign in Germany with military campaigns into Western Europe. Stalin’s alliance of the Soviet Union with Germany was a temporary measure to prepare the way for Soviet territorial and political expansion into Eastern Europe, Central Europe, and Western Europe.
