The Nazi-Soviet pact also effectively divided up Estonia, Lithuania, Latvia, and Romania. Joseph Stalin was so shocked by Adolf Hitler&#39;s later betrayal of the non-aggression treaty that he initially refused to believe it. And Vladimir Putin just can&#39;t make up his mind about the whole thing.

Meeting with young historians in Moscow this week, the Russian president urged a re-examining of the build-up to the Great Patriotic War and the west&#39;s role in Hitler&#39;s rise. He said western historians had tried to &quot;hush up&quot; the 1938 Munich Agreement between Britain and France and Germany, which was the culmination of the appeasement policy pursued by the government of Neville Chamberlain. On the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact signed a year later, Putin said: The Soviet Union signed a non-aggression treaty with Germany.

People say: &#39;Ah, that&#39;s bad.&#39; But what&#39;s bad about that if the Soviet Union didn&#39;t want to fight, what&#39;s bad about it? This is far, far from his viewpoint only five years ago, when, as prime minister, he marked the 70th anniversary of the invasion of Poland by writing, in a Polish newspaper no less, that the pact was &quot;immoral&quot;. He went on to write: It is possible to condemn - and with good reason - the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact concluded in August 1939.
