Yes, they did initially side with Germany. The Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact, also known as the Nazi-Soviet Non-Agression Pact was an agreement between the two countries that pledged neutrality in the event of either party being attacked and war breaking out. There was also the secret agreement of splitting Poland after Hitler's invasion of the country. The Soviet Union and Hitler's Germany were allies until Hitler invaded Stalin's U.S.S.R. on June 22nd, 1941. This was known as Operation Barbarossa.
