Nazi - Soviet Pact

  • Pact between Stalin (USSR) and Hitler (Germany)
  • Britain and France didn't seem to want to protect the USSR against Hitler and didn't have control over what he was doing to other countries
  • Germany and the USSR created a pact and agreed not to attack each other
  • They divided the land of Poland between each other
  • Stalin didn't believe the Hitler wouldn't attack the USSR but the pact bought them time to build up there forces and prepare for an attack
  • Hitler wanted to stop the USSR attacking him whilst he invaded Poland and Czechoslovakia - this is what the pact did
