      Let me get this straight. If two countries have a pact to occupy a third country and act on said pact to occupy that state together are they allies or enemies? This held until 1941.

        you can try to isolate any point of time you want and ignore history but the matter of fact is that nazi germany invaded the soviet union and everyone and their mother knew it was going to happen since Hitler was not particularly shy when talking about his goals on the region or his views on the “judeobolsheviks”. this nonsense that the soviet union wanted to “secretly join the axis” is ahistorical and frankly dumb.
