what stopped the ussr from saying
the ussr sent a request to the allies to conduct a joint invasion of germany with britain, france, and poland
"germany dont invade poland"
yeah i believe that
that's why they teamed up with germany
yes because the request was ignored
molotov-ribbentrop was the best move after that
>hey we're scared of the germans
"let's team up with them"
Who in the allies wants to fight all the way into deep Russia
The USSR could've easily said "We're declaring a formal military alliance with Poland. If you invade Poland, we invade you."
yeah, i bet hitler would've not invaded poland
cuz he would have still needed to destroy france
and britain
all he did was give hitler time
He would have just later on
yeah, but he would be fighting a two front war
and the fucking centerpiece of hitler's strategy
or rather, his main goal
was to avoid a two front war
yeah
but if stalin was like
"you invade poland, we invade you"
It'd be more aggro
hitler would be forced to fight a two front war immediately
It might even prompt a sooner German invasion
which hiter did as much as he could to abvoid
No, hitler really wanted to avoid a two front war
he did everything in hus power
Then why'd he start one
to avoid it
because he throught the british werent a threat
cuz he was winning on all fronts
yeah maybe a guarantee on poland could have worked
ALSO
i can't really say why that course of action wasn't pursued
He literally negotiated with France to try and keep them out of the war.
He thought the ussr was useless because of the winter war
that's one important point
They where
