The USSR positively aided to the defeat of Poland by invading from the East & partitioning the country. This was all part of the Non-Aggression pact betwen Ribbentrop & Molotov which defined the Soviet sphere of influence in eastern Europe. Into the bargain the USSR invaded the Baltic States of Latvia. Lithuania & Estonia.
