yes it is hard to believe anyone could be that stupid ....he was ...and has said similar things twice before ......his exact words on this occasion ......
"[The Poles] went too far, pushing Hitler to start World War II by attacking them. Why was it against Poland that the war started on 1 September 1939? Poland proved to be uncompromising, and Hitler had no choice but to start implementing his plans, starting with Poland."
as I said previously ...amd you can read it for yourself .....putin was saying hitler HAD to invade Poland because they refused tio give up Gdansk ....doesn't expalin why needed to invade half of Poland and not just Gdansk ..... diesn't explain why he went on to invade dozens of other countries either but there it is .....putin justifying hitlers actions plain as day !
and he attempts to justify hitler because putin is doing similar in Ukraine
plenty of other refferences to this should you need to check
