Russia Ukraine war, page-206837

let me correct you ....there was no "WarswPact" because there was no real pact or agreement .....the USSR simply replaced Germany as the invading power , placed puppets in command of the countries and IMPOSED their empire - the iron curtain .
Poland czech , Hungary all tried to cast off the russian oppression - they never wanted it ......almost all of those countries have now CHOSEN NATO , chosen their allies to avoid russia ever doing that to them again .

you fail to distinguish between spheres of influence and conquest and occupation such as is going on in Ukraine now .
You deliberately misrepresent in order to support russia .
