Not only did this leave France and Britain against germany but the non-agression pact contained a clause that allowed the Russians to occupy half of Poland!

How was World War 1 affected when Russia pulled out?
The Treaty of Brest-Litovsk was signed on 1 March 1918. From the Russian point of view it involved the loss of Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Russian Poland, parts of Belarus and most of the Ukraine. These were to become nominally independent but, except for Finland, there were to become German and satellite states. The treaty enabled the Germans to transfer a large number of troops to the Western Front. However, they were unable to reap the full benefits of this as many men had to be left to occupy the new satellites in eastern Europe. Moreover, the Germans and Austrians found themselves sucked into the Russian Civil War of 1918-21. Everywhere they found themselves fighting the Bolshevists. Joncey
