The Historian's Thoughts on the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact
34
Against the backdrop of the 80 anniversary of the start of World War II and the 74 anniversary of its end, specialists continue to discuss such a question as “the main reason for the beginning of the most bloody war in stories". Some neighbors of Russia have their own opinions on this subject.
Poland asserts that the beginning of the great war was laid at the conclusion of an agreement between the Soviet Union and Nazi Germany. This treaty is better known as the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact. Western historians and those who consider themselves experts in the field of history argue that if this pact of the USSR had not been signed, then there would have been no attack on Poland on 1 on September 1939.
Matters related to the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact were raised on a Tactical Media broadcast when Alexei Isaev, Ph.D. in History, was invited to the studio. The plot also discusses the so-called secret protocol, which was part of the pact.
Alexey Isaev:
In the case of Munich (the Munich Agreement of the 1938 of the year) everything was open, but only then the Czechoslovak delegation was not invited to the negotiations themselves. In comparison, the negotiations in Munich were in some places a circus. It is said that Daladier accepted fairly, they were also seated in different directions, and they could not talk to each other. The Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact, in comparison, looks more sane.
